Shaped as bones, hamburgers, and even seasonal treats. Flavored as chicken, bacon and sausage, turkey and pumpkin, and peanut butter.

If you asked your dog to name the ingredients, would they be able to? And if it is not a seasonal shape during the holidays, there is likely to be disappointment.

The beauty is we buy them. And all of this comes at a premium. For inferior ingredients and the heart-warming shapes, we can proudly display, and in colors we have no idea our dogs like or not, we gladly spend.

That is only a dog biscuit. Ever wondered what else we are being sucked into, and all for that small moment of gratification as we place the bag into the shopping cart. And likewise, do we choose to expend our resources on elements that are in many ways unreal instead of the ingredients that matter?

Convenience comes at a price, but even that price is not always justified.
