contained in a little pellet? I feed mine dog food, too. But sometimes I look at it and wonder how in the world I could even begin to think that a monotonous baked pellet could contain complete nutrition for a complex life form.

For humans, there are hundreds of theories on proper nutrition and health. None involve eating the exact same, nutritionally balanced food day after day. Fresh fruits, veggies, meat, carbs and chocolate are all part of a balanced human diet.

But a balanced dog diet is a cup or two of the exact same pellets?
The chocolate was in reference to a balanced diet for people, not dogs.
