Yeah, I didn't mean to put Purina specifically on a pedestal as the only company doing it (originally I had this long list and then went ugh they'll probably know what I mean if I just put one).

Just that these "your pet is a wild animal!" emotional insecurity brands slap an AAFCO tag on and call it a day or haven't been around for long enough to have any meaningful data.

Like...animals in the wild don't live very long, yo! Maybe pretending that your Boston Terrier is the king of the jungle isn't so good for him.
