“A healthier alternative that doesn't break the bank”

I switched my dog's diet over to Blue Buffalo a few years ago, and while they're picky with kibble, they've loved BB from the start. We've tried different flavors for our fur babies, and they like them all (it's true - other flavors of other brands - and some brands completely - are not to their picky liking). We're a fan of BB since it's a healthier alternative to the big name, cheap stuff you can find in most pet stores and Walmarts.

“Always being recalled. Quality control is pitiful OR the manufacture is not supervised.”

They spend a FORTUNE ADVERTISING and then provide recalled products. It would be better if they spent their money on a quality product rather than poisoning our pets.

Blue Buffalo wet cat food is no longer recommended. We had our cats on Healthy Gourmet wet food. We've been serving this product to our cats for the past couple decades and have had happy results with each cat. This product has been on the market for a long time. It was reliable and safe to use. Blue decided to discontinue Healthy Gourmet and replace it with Tastefuls.

Tastefuls is a terrible, horrible product. It is a horrible replacement for Healthy Gourmet. There are a few things that bother me about the replacement: First the smell. The smell is so horrid it stunk up my whole house for a few days. (And no it wasn't just sitting in the trash can it went strait into the outside trash.) Secondly, is the texture. The texture is a slimy watered down pate lump. It looks so disgusting I can't even bring my self to look at it without feeling queasy. Third my current cats will not take to it. One of them took an air sniff after opening and had the disgusted look on her face. The second one is a glutton and will eat literally anything. He wouldn't even eat this. Fourth, due to the smell, texture and new recopies I will NOT continue buying Blue Tastefuls for my pets. Damn you Blue Healthy Gourmet was decent and you botched this with Tastefuls. Don't be surprised if you end up having to discontinue this product. Other pet reviewers will realize it's not the same as it's predecessor.

We switched our cats over to Purina Pro plan foods. They have fewer 5.5 oz servings but our cats have taken to every one of their foods even the non pate versions. Purina has also been on the market longer than Blue. I feel safer using that. It costs the same either way so it just depends upon what your pets enjoy.

Dont risk your dogs life or health. Ask questions about their ingredients, recalls and law suits. Check on dog food advisor for rated dog foods

DO NOT BUY ANY BLUE BUFFALO PRODUCTS! If you truly care about your pets, I would steer clear of this company. The cat litter is made with walnut shells, and while the dust is little to none, walnuts are poisionous to dogs and cats. We have lost 2 kittens and we believe this has something to do with it. The kitten food doesn't even digest. My 2nd kitten ate this her first night with us and 6 to 7 hours later she threw it up, still in its original form and solid as a rock. This should have already digested. Our third cat is 3 years old and begin to have the same black crap in his nose everyday because of the litter, as soon as he switched litters his nose cleared up and he has been doing great! I tried sending in a complaint, with no response (i did this 3 months ago)
