It's a shame they're getting rid of them. I guess I'll just have to keep avoiding them like I did before, since I had just assumed they used the gross kind.

    This is just another way to make the bottom line look better.

    At least we don't have any defenders of this (yet) ... I am sure other sites already have people defending da man on this one.

    The dog will be less 'tasty' - that's a fact. And yes people will notice the difference.

    People noticed and complained loudly... Let us hope people complain just as loud on this issue.

    You wouldn't believe how many. Even people saying Disney was helping people live healthier.

    They'll probably raise the price on this cheaper product anyway.

    The real question is where can I get some scrapple on property?
