Turns out my childhood instincts--honed while sampling from the dog bowl with Kimo, our Golden Retriever--weren't so far off: British researchers have found that
pet food is better for your health than fast food:
Nutrition experts discovered that Gourmet Gold cat food has just 2.9g of fat per 100g — a mouth-watering EIGHT TIMES less than the percentage found in pieces of KFC.
The level of fat was also far lower than a McDonald’s Big Mac and a Pizza Hut meal.
The lab tests by nutrition experts discovered that Cesar dog food uses just 4.4g of fat in every 100g — and has lower salt and sugar levels than many dishes served to humans.
Researchers found that KFC chicken pieces were the unhealthiest fast food on test. They contained 23.2g of fat per 100g and 1.9g of salt. Unbelievably, ADDING fries cut the fat and salt levels, with them falling to 12g and 0.7g per 100g.
