'...If the NRA had gone on unmolested, one thing you’d know by this time would be the amount of canned dog food consumed by human beings in this country....An effort was made, chiefly by the Breeders’ and Veterinarians’ League, to clean up dog food standards. One of the arguments was that people ate a lot of the stuff, made up of things the packing houses don’t know what else to do with and in many cases unfit even for dogs. “Your attention is called,” wrote the league, “to the large amounts of canned dog food sold in areas heavily populated by white people of southern European and Mexican extraction and also in the colored sections of large cities - areas where a dog would be a luxury." NRA also heard of dog food salesmen who would open up cans in front of prospective buyers and eat therefrom, just to show how good the stuff was.'
