The best packaging for any food, particularly RF foods, is light- and oxygen-barrier and modified atmosphere flushed. In the absence of this, oxidation proceeds rendering the lipids toxic. None of the producers surveyed employed these technologies that we could detect. Even if they did, the other problems and dangers listed above would remain.

SRF Response – We are setting the standard for raw pet food packaging as mentioned previously. In 8 years of production we have never had a problem.

SRF states that in eight years they have not had a (reported) problem. Although that is good, it is no assurance that problems will not occur or have not. Also, eight years is only about half the life span of pets. Additionally, food production is inherently risky. Even the most sophisticated of food processors have problems. Consumers decrease their risk by varying the diet as described in the Optimal Health Program™, not by feeding pet foods such as SRF that claim to be “complete and balanced.”
