Last year I noticed shortages periodically of beef, pork was cheap. Beef is slightly better now, pork slightly more but not rare. It's become hard to find pork from non-Smithfield sources, maybe because no pig farming around here. Smithfield is owned by the Chinese. That doesn't mean their pork comes from China, they have giant hog farms here so we get the stink. But whenever food gets short in China, the pork around here can be diverted easily. As to the cat food, I've noticed a shortage of the wet kind, which has always been very sus to me. Where do they get so much fish? Could only be from around Asia. Nutritionally I don't think the wet stuff is really "meatier" than the dry, it is an illusory conclusion based on texture. It has a lot of flavorings added. It certainly could cover a lot of mystery meat. Some is baby chicks thrown in the chipper when they are sexed so there will be more egg layers and fewer roosters.
Fun fact: Did some work for a meat product manufacturer 15 or so years ago. They called their comminuted chicken (leftover and unusable chicken scraps/parts which was usually sold to pet food manufacturers) "chicken squish".
Well, you are probably on to something. A few months back I was looking up the info about aborted fetal cells in food. A list was given of all the foods that used it. Also, was a list of pet foods. I will post it of I find it. I figured Q caught them all so it was safe now. I still don't get the shortage. I have to order my cat food online, I can't get in the stores for months now.
Since you've already done the research let me ask you a question please. Can you confirm if Pepsi is or is not on the list? My husband tells me there are fetal cells in Pepsi. It's my only vice so I don't know if he's telling the truth or he just wants me to stop drinking it
But speaking of ingredients, my vet educated our family to only buy pet products made in the us from us sources. He also said, it has to specify chicken vs. meat.
Any receipts?

I USE to love Pepsi but unfortunately they are on the list. Here is the link which contains a comprehensive list of products containing the stuff.

Just like McDonald’s…
I read that as recipes. I thought, "you sick bastard." LOL
