> [@Amateur\_Barbarian](#): > > So all comments that X must be the same as Y because it comes from the same plant is absolutely completely wrong. It’s possible that a store brand (especially Costco) is another middling-good brand in a different label… but pet food plants turn out batches to order that can be as different as, well, corn and cow. While what you say is true unless Costco decided to confirm or we start sampling dog food we may never know for sure. What is known is recalls on Taste of the Wild and Kirkland Brand occur at the same time. Kirkland has the same nutritional listings as Taste of the Wild. My dog doesn’t seem to know the difference, but then again he’s not very picky. ---

> [@stillownedbysetters](#): > > They are gracious enough to give me a bite or two out of each meal I make for myself before they start the ‘I’m-a-starving-dog-who-never-eats-and-I-NEEEEEED-that-sandwich’ routine. lol LOL. I just now traded a PB&J sandwich for pretend dog food with Ella. I have eaten various dry (and wet) dog foods. Some of that stuff is actually pretty good according to my human taste-buds. Me and Ella(TheCutestDogInTheWholeWideWorld) just might survive this winter/\ 😃 ---
