The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act requires that pet foods, like human foods, be safe to eat, produced under sanitary conditions, contain no harmful substances, and be truthfully labeled.

As a rule of thumb, Sojos European-Style Dog and Cat Food Mixes and Monzie's contain approximately 3.8 cups per pound and Europa contains about 4 cups per pound.
