It is a pity to see that a picture of a pig is used to advertise on the packaging...please give consideration to how this food is made cheaper...hopefully not through supporting cruel or caged farming practices. Hopefully there will be transparency from this business so that money is not the only motivation. Have a Merry Christmas all.
