[at-l] Hiker food?

[dicentra]

Sounds okay... but I have a but.

The regulations/laws for processing pet foods are very different from those for 
humans. Who makes this product?

I came across this yesterday while doing the weekly grocery thing at WalMart.  
Go to the Pet Food aisle, yes you heard right, PET food....

Now look for plastic boxes of treats called Bountiful something or other. They 
come in Dried Apples, Dried Banannas, Dried Carrots, Dried Sweet Potatoes, etc. 
Now before you go yuck, read the ingredients label. The one on the carrots for 
instance says "Dried Carrots." Thats it, just carrots, nothing else. Wanna bet 
that you can eat it? nly $3.98 a box!
