[pct-l] trail snacks

[MLMcNairn at aol.com]

My package of Kingdom Pets Chicken Jerkey does not say they are irradiated. 
 Irradiation does not contain heavy metals because it is a type of  
preservation method using something like microwaves that kill off the bacteria.  
Since the product comes from China, there are probably lots of bacteria to  be 
killed. I would like it better if it were irradiated, especially when it  
says "not for human consumption."

I was to  try the chicken. But it says in fine print 'irradiated, not for 
human  consumption' 

The dog loves them,  and they look quite  tasty  ... Just dried chicken and 
sometimes even dried duck...  But the  irradiation process leaves heavy 
materials that the body does not dispel...  They build up in the body over the 
course of your life and are eventually  toxic... Much like mercury
