What is in the bag, and what it says
Last updated
Start here if the bag is new to you. Our tripe is green beef tripe from a farm in the United States, freeze-dried raw, and beef tripe is the only ingredient on the label. These posts read the bag closely: the guaranteed analysis line by line, the three bag sizes, what single ingredient means, how to choose tripe treats, how to store an open bag, and an honest account of the smell. None of it asks you to take our word for anything. It asks you to turn the bag over.
