But they're not being dishonest either. The packaging says animal biproducts or animal protein most of the time. As far as the animals being killed by chemicals, the gases used to euthanize animals dissipate in a short period of time and are oftentimes "non-toxic" such as the CO2 we use at my work.
I think if people are truly concerned about whether their dog food contains chicken breast or chicken embryos, they should just make their own dog food or buy the several non-vegetarian organic brands that have come out on the market recently. It's going to cost you the same as human food, if not more, but you're also going to be feeding your animal human grade food.
