    I don’t know about this product specifically, but in general, animal food products are not regulated as much as food for people. This means it may not be as safe.

      Depends on the animal and the jurisdiction. As far as I’m aware, dog and especially cat food is more tightly regulated than human food in the US.

      Horse food though? Not so much.

      And almost no other countries are victims of regulatory capture to the degree that the US is.

      Specifically around things like cleanliness and packaging. Places that make vet medicine would not pass a health inspection.
