Wow, I'm not even going to begin addressing all those statements, I honestly just don't have the time, though I hope others will (some already have). I just want to say if you think Purina doesn't use beet pulp you might want to look through more of their formulas. They don't use it in all formulas but they most certainly do in some of them. I know for sure some of the Pro-Plan and Selects formulas do as I just looked at their ingredients the other day when someone asked about Selects.
