FAQ PRODUCT continued
+ My fermented raw goat milk has brown specks in it. What is it? Cinnamon.
+ Why is cinnamon in the fermented raw goat milk?
We add cinnamon because it is a great source of antioxidants.
+ Why is honey listed in the raw goat milk?
Honey is used as a starter for the fermentation process. Two cultures are added to the honey and they immediately begin to eat it. We add a small amount of that honey to our goat milk. Because honey is pre-metabolized by the bacteria during the fermentation process, there is virtually no sugar left after this process. Those same cultures then move on the lactose sugars in the milk, pre-metabolizing them as well. The result is that there are very few lactose sugars left in the milk once it is fermented.
RAW PRODUCTS
+ Why do these products vary in texture and color?
Real, authentic, raw food that is curated in small batches doesn’t have the homogenized look and texture of mass-produced foods. We do not have a processed, cosmetically identical look of products. We do not use any kind of chemical or preservatives to make our food more uniform. Because of this, there are a great many differences in our foods— from the look, texture and smell, to processing standards. Variation is found everywhere in nature, so it makes sense that it would occur in our natural foods. Fermentation is a unique process that will affect the color, texture, and smell of each product differently batch to batch. The amount of air exposure the specific batch receives drastically effects the color, texture and moisture content. Specific cuts of meat in each batch will also slightly vary.
+ Why do these products smell? Have they gone bad?
No. The smell is of lactic-acid and can vary in pungency. The longer exposure it has, the more it smells.
It’s completely normal and safe.
+ Why do you put high-vitamin raw butter in Detailed Formulas?
Raw grassfed butter is one of the healthiest foods. It’s a good source of healthy fats (omega and saturated)
and a good source of vitamins A, D, and K2.
+ Why do you put salt in your products?
Our products contain Redmond salt. Depending on the product, it’s used to support fermentation and add
back much-needed minerals and trace elements into food due to general soil depletion. Salt is necessary for life.
+ Why is your food so high in fat?
Our food is considered a moderate fat food, not a high fat food. Fat is very important for your animal. Dogs and cats have a biological need for fats. They do not have a biological need for carbohydrates. Our food is species- appropriate and contains moderate protein, moderate fat, and less than 2% carbohydrates for optimal health.
+ Why do you use kombucha in your raw feet treats?
We use kombucha to bring a variety of fermentation to the diet, to offer competitive inhibition against bad
bacteria, to ensure predigestion, and to inoculate the mouth for better oral health.
