Do You Know How Dog Food Is Made?

25 November 2007

Semi-moist foods are made almost just like dry foods but when they are going through the extruder the temperature is lower and dryer and then it would be for dry dog food. Inbetween canned dog food and dry kibble you have semi-moist. Semi moist dog foods are obviously higher in moisture and have an increased risk of spoilage from mold and bacteria. To help prevent this manufactures formulated the semi-moist foods with mold and bacterial inhibitors and place them in special moisture proof bags. Canned foods have been around since the 1800s. Canned food (or soft dog food) is food sealed in a can and then heat sterilized. Raw ingredients are used as they are in Dry food and semi-moist food. These are then added into a mixer and are cooked. After it is cooked but still hot, it moves into the filler/seamer. This is when it is placed in the cans and vacuumed sealed and then sterilized.
