Cook Method and Temperature

Their Cook Method

◦ Superheated at 600+ degrees at huge rendering factories in order to kill live parasites, harmful bacteria, viruses, and microbes, not to mention insects that infest rotting (including maggots which make up a large percentage of the meat's volume)

◦ Nutrient values are destroyed and therefore require re-saturation of vitamins and minerals with soluble and insoluble supplements

◦ Sulfur, sulfides, disulfides, tocopherols, albumen, and plasticizing agents are used to reduce rancidity

Our Cook Method

◦ Meat and vegetables are slow cooked at a loving, gentle 250° to preserve nutrient value

◦ No oils, salts, or garlic are added

◦ Nothing but fresh whole meats and freshly picked vegetables

Food Presentation

Their Food

◦ Dried, predigested, overly processed chunks of matter with nominal nutrional value after high-temp cooking

◦ Relies entirely on vitamin and mineral supplements that are minimally absorbable

◦ Sulfur, sulfides, disulfides, tocopherols, albumen, and plasticizing agents are used to reduce rancidity

Our Food

◦ All food is in whole form, enabling optimal digestive tract utilization and metabolic absorption

◦ Nutrient value is maximized through carefully balanced ingredients that remain fluid throughout the cooking process
