All of my life, I have heard whisperings about someday having to eat bugs as the main source of protein. I’ve actually known a handful of people who used bug protein as a main part of their diet, but it is not something I have personally ever tried or even experimented with. When it comes to Pancake, our lovely cat, he already eats bugs! The little guy will chase, hunt down, and promptly eat any bug given to him, so when it comes to eating bugs, I’ve left it for him.
Tomojo is a new cat and dog food brand that has food completely made of bug protein. The reason behind this has to do with our environment – the production of their pet food uses fewer precious resources – less agricultural space and water, and there is less greenhouse gas production in the creation of this type of food, when compared to meat-based products. Their foods do not have any growth hormones or antibiotics either. As most of their make-up is made from bugs, there food is also grain free. It’s a great pet food brand if your cat has allergies or is intolerant to anything, as this food is made quite differently.
