I could be wrong Munch old boy
and please feel free to shoot me down in flames if i prove to be, but isn't there an EU regulation that all ingredients for dog food have to be fit for human consumption? I know that some firms employ human dog food tasters.

"fit for human consumption" covers a multitude of sins, though.
The mysterious grey mush that fills Asda's sausage rolls, Fray Bentos pies, and Turkey Twizzlers, to name but three. Not what I'd call quality meat, not by a long shot.

That said, dog food being certified as fit for humans is news to me, but rather amusing if it is true!

Edit: Wikipedia backs you up, although it only states that the animals used need to be fit for human consumption, but not which bits of the animal. Think I'll avoid whatever it is in the cat's bowl.

Well the
entire argument about what goes into processed food is another kettle of swimmy things altogether. Sadly the only way to truly know what goes into your food is to make everything yourself from scratch and even then its impossible to know exactly what chemicals have been used on your veg/in the animal feed. I do know you don't get white dog poo anymore because they stopped using bone meal in dog food.

It's been a while
since I got nostalgic about white dog poo.
Let's have a minutes silence, in rememberance.

My dog does white poos
Because I give him bones, and feed him on 19p raw meat, like dogs are supposed to eat!

Not sure I agree 100% with the OP, though...

I thought that dogs
were supposed to eat other dogs?
