Is the Whole Food Mixer considered 'human grade'?Updated 6 days ago

The short answer is yes. "Human grade" isn't a term AAFCO defines, and pet food brands use it in different ways. It generally means food made from human-edible ingredients in a facility that makes food for people.

The Whole Food Mixer meets that standard. It's made from food-grade ingredients, 67% of them certified organic, in a food-grade facility that also makes products for people. Our baked food is made from food-grade ingredients in a pet food bakery.

Most brands that use the term are trying to reassure customers about the animal protein in their food. The Whole Food Mixer has no animal ingredients at all.
