    But still, that's such a broad brush. Dogs have different digestive systems and different metabolisms than we do.

    All food is, strictly speaking, made of "chemicals." As is all life. You and me - we are made of "chemicals."

    With a statement like that, I'd want to know what specific chemicals concern you, what, if any effect they have on a dog's metabolism, and why the companies add them.

    Statements like that remind me of the
    "Dangers of Dihydrogen Oxide" emails/webpages/ etc. that go around sometimes. After all too much Dihydrogen Oxide will kill you - human and animals both. It can also cause untold damage to the environment, and render areas uninhabitable. etc. etc.

    Dihydrogen Oxide is H2O is water. Too much or too little WILL kill you, but it's also necessary for life and nothing to be frightened of.
