Freeze-drying is one of the most desirable way of preserving food because at low temperatures chemical reactions take place very slowly and pathogens have difficulty surviving.

What's Best For My Pet

Fresh food is of course one of the healthiest options for your pet, but it’s not always affordable or time-efficient for some pet parents.

Freeze-drying retains nearly 100% of the natural nutrients in foods, almost as good as eating it raw! The kibble-based pet food diets have artificial additives, preservatives, and chemicals. Kibble has a small possibility of bacterial contamination due to the fat layer sprayed on the kibble to add flavour after the extrusion cooking process. A freeze-dried diet has an extremely small-to-no likelihood of bacterial contamination due to the production process (the process of freezing then removing moisture from the food).

Kibble-based diets go through hours of extrusion process at very high temperatures in order to create a shelf-stable food product which removes any nutrients from the by-products, fillers, and synthetic or artificial ingredients generally used.
