Abstract

The carnivore food is composed essentially of ground raw meat and dried cooked cereal, optionally supplemented with other protein, and extruded as continuous extrusions each composed of successive slugs adhered to each other in end to end relation by the natural fluids freed from the meat by cutting and extrusion forces. The amount of cereal is thoroughly impregnated by the freed juices, leaving an excess of freed juices only sufficient to adhere the food particles together and moisten the extrusion. The freed juices of the meat, and supplement, if any, are substantially the only moisture present.
