Lesson #2 on reading fish food labels - crude protein is listed as a minimum value, not maximum. See how that works? It keeps the wannabes guessing,
Sorry you didn't believe my statement that Dr. Quack was tongue in cheek. Doesn't surprise me or hurt me. Not a friend or family, so calling me a liar slides off my back.
You are killing me on the reason for stating minimum requirements on packaging. If you keep saying the same old B.S. over and over again do you actually believe yourself. Probably one of the reasons you have trouble believing others.
The reason the minimum crude protein is listed on the label is because it is the law. Plain and simple, just
like you. Keep wannabees guessing. LOL and LMAO and don't forget the 10 year old BOOM.
The reason they put 34% on their packaging is because that is actually what it is. If they could put a higher amount on it they would but they can't. They would have to reduce their 40% whole wheat flour even more and that would hurt their bottom line.

Pongo ..... you lost all credibility in this discussion the moment that you went on the offensive, and began speaking on your close friends behalf. You should have just left it at your initial comments about this food, but seeing as you want to continue to dig a hole for yourself ...........
I'm sorry, perhaps I wasn't going slowly enough for you. I understand that crude minimums are part of the pet food label requirements regulated by AAFCO, what you apparently failed to grasp is that there is no requirement to post the actual percentage, or even what is often seen in commercial farm feed, what's known as a typical analysis. In the USA, where all of these laws originate, and where all of these laws are enforced via state regulatory bodies, all they care is that the manufacturer meets the minimum values, as listed on the label. No one cares if the protein or lipid content is 10% higher. No manufacturer in their right mind is going to list the exact crude protein amount, because anyone who actually knows what they are talking about knows that from batch to batch those percentages can shift slightly by a point or two, or more. So if one actually has experience in shipping food among different US states they will always play the numbers on the low side, to ensure that they are not breaking any laws. Getting caught being even 1% below the amount stated on the label could result in 10's of thousands of $$$ worth of food being rejected at the border.
Of course this isn't something that you or your pal would know anything about, because you don't live and operate on US soil. Then again, apparently Darius didn't even realize that his food contains hormones.

My fish care and that is the most important thing to me. Have a nice day.
