LOL! Maybe the ones who were all hot and bothered about it learned
there really is a cut called that in some parts of the country.

Meantime, just cleaned my chest freezer a bit. I haven't ground up
food for the dogs in a bit and need to get more. In there was an
improperly stored (now freezer burned) packet of this. The dogs will
love it! They can't seem to taste freezer burn so as long as it hasn't
been left out to go bad, is fine 'raw feeding' material.

It's defrosting along with some stray chicken bits and other oddiments
we aren't really sure of (grin). Next you will see Sheldon go 'ape' on
why chest freezers are bad. In fact, he's wrong if you have dogs and a
good quality grinder.

As I typoed to you, Don found the last pack of 10lbs chicken necks for
the grinder. We buy them and other parts in 20-40lb bulk cases (bagged
10lbs each inside) for 39-69 cents a lb. Human food grade all of it.
It goes in the tasin grinder, bone and all for the dogs. Blue
Wilderness kibble is paired with this or some canned grain-free if we
havent ground up any in a bit. I'll admit, grinding my own is a heck
of a lot cheaper than grain-free canned dog food. Both of my dogs
*and* my cat have grain issues though Daisy-chan (cat) isn't *too* bad
about it.
