healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2021/10/10/adulterated-pet-food.aspx Story at-a-glance A recently published study on adulteration in pet food suggests that while mercury contamination is likely not a significant problem, mislabeling of ingredients definitely is Only two tested pet food samples contained mercury above suggested levels, however, it’s important to note there is currently no established regulation for a safe concentration of mercury in pet foods Study researchers used DNA sequencing to identify the ingredients in the pet food samples and found that not a single sample was without some form of mismatch in label ingredients vs. actual ingredients As a consumer, you have a right to question the manufacturer of your dog’s or cat’s pet food about how, and how often, they verify the authenticity of their ingredients If you’re a pet parent who has lost trust in ultraprocessed pet food producers, you can take steps to improve your pet’s diet and also help fight back against deceptive industry practices My notes: Whatever happened to "truth in advertising"?

So many times in past few years we learned this. Organic or natural is not what you think it should be. Can’t trust anyone out there.
