Bird flu?

YW Daysha!

And both of those brands use HPP for their poultry formulas (and S&C may use it for all of their "raw" foods).

@Dr. Jeff I wanted to follow back up on Viva brand, as I recently received an email from them that starting in a week they will be using HPP on all of their products. I liked Viva due to the meat looking like meat and not a gray, damp block of food. I noticed on their social media that customers are divided on feeling good about the change or not. Some are going to stop ordering food through them. Are there any other companies you have heard or experienced yourself that are good and prepared? I don't have time in my life currently like I have in the past to make meals from scratch. Thanks!

I don't personally have a problem with HPP, and in the current environment, I am glad they're making that decision. Customer opinions are far less important than science and safety!

Yes, Daysha. As you can probably imagine, I too am moving away to Solutions food (fermented), Small Batch poultry (the chicken, turkey and duck is HPP'd), etc.
