Eating Raw Corn Meal
Is it possible to make something more healthy for your pet then paying for a bag of corn?
I always hear raw meat is good for your dog . I look at all these dog foods and your paying for the name on the bag but they all have the same ingredients CORN meal and meat byproducts . I want to make my dog something that is all natural and very healthy to eat like mayb like chicken or something so anyone that makes there pet food instead of over paying for crap what do you feed your large breed dog ?
I have to disagree with Twilitekiller (BTW, what animal hospital DO you work for?) Feeding your dog a meat meal isnt a good idea. meat meal is produced as a by-product from the removal of fat from animal tissues through rendering. All protein concentrates utilized by the poultry and livestock industries are by-products, consisting of all or a portion of the residue that remains after fat, oil or other constituents have been removed. This includes Meat and Bone Meal, Soybean Meal, Fish Meals, etc. Meat Meal is a BY PRODUCT honey..I'm also holding a bag of chicken soup for the dog lovers soul. i checked the 5th ingredient. its potatoes. all the other ingredients after that are veggies. do you even know what your talking about??
Feeding your dog or cat a homemade raw diet is easy AND inexpensive. Vets are now handing out recipes to make at home and in my town's newspaper theyre going to publish recipes of raw diets.
HEALTHY EATING HABITS
- Eat less meat. In your diet reduce the frequency and the serving-size of red meat portions. Try not to eat meat more than once a day and preferably less often.
- Whenever you are going to eat meat, try to select lean cuts and remove all visible fat before eating. Grill the meat rather than fry.
- Add more poultry and fish to your meals. Avoid sausage, frankfurters, bologna and other processed meats because they are usually high in fat.
- Reduce severely the amount of cream, butter, cream cheese and ice- cream that you consume. Choose semi-skimmed milk or pour off the cream before having it.
- Eat only those dairy products, which have low fat such as skimmed milk, cottage cheese and yogurt. Use soft margarines that are high in polyunsaturates.
- Restrict the number of eggs to no more than three per week.
- Avoid more consumption of commercial biscuits and cakes because these are made with hard fats.
- As the cooking oil, use only the recommended oils such as corn, soya, or olive.
- For the sake of your teeth, reduce intake of heavily sweetened foods such as sweets and biscuits.
- Eat some fresh fruits every day. And if possible eat fruits at or after every meal.
- Eat more vegetables, particularly peas and beans - fresh or dried - because they are a very good low-fat source of protein.
- Eat wholemeal bread as your staple food. Eat wholemeal breakfast cereals. Take extra bran if the rest of your daily diet is rather refined
TIPS ON COOKING

- Soak whole pulses overnight and other dals for one hour before cooking.
- Always add hot water to the gravy to enhance the taste.

- While boiling milk, always add a little water at the base of the vessel to avoid the milk from sticking at the bottom.
- Add a tsp. of hot oil to homemade pastes of garlic, ginger or green chili, along with salt to make it last longer and taste fresher.
- Store raisins in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for much longer. Pour very hot water over them if they had harden, after that drain them immediately, and spread on a paper towel to dry. You can also leave a spoon in the vessel in which the milk is being boiled at low heat so that it does not get burnt at the bottom

- Potatoes soaked in salt water for 20 minutes will bake more rapidly.
Roasting is a dry heat method of cooking - it does not use water. The flavors roasting draws forth result from the process of browning. As the surface of the meat browns, and its juices and fats drip down and brown on the surface of the hot roasting pan, it adds to the flavour of the meat.
