Lee,
Ethoxyquin is highly toxic and is a known carcinogen. Many pet food
manufacturers stopped adding it to their foods several years ago. However,
if a manufacturer purchases their "meat base" (which many do) from a
rendering plant, and the rendering plant uses ethoxyquin, the manufacturer
is not legally obligated to list it as an ingredient because he didn't "add"
the chemical.
