"Прокололись" на закупленном в Китае рисовом концентрате ( RICE GLUTEN), но Роял Канин утверждает ( американский бренч), что не делал его закупок в Китае:

Do you purchase rice protein concentrate from China?

Royal Canin USA is no longer sourcing vegetable protein ingredients from China.



So rice gluten is a good pet food ingredient, but why use rice gluten from China?

China is the world’s largest rice producer, and therefore, the largest exporter of rice gluten. Prior to this issue, rice gluten from China was considered very high quality because of its nutritional value.

Due to that earlier quality rating, Chinese rice gluten was actually one of the more expensive pet food ingredients, costing more than most meat proteins.

However as of April 19, 2007, Royal Canin USA does not source any of its vegetable proteins—including rice gluten—from China.
