The rice issue seems over blown. Throughout the world billions of humans consume rice as a staple part of their diet. It is disappointing that DFA does not rate any food with rice in it over 4 stars because of the potential of arsenic. A quality food made with humane grade meat that uses human grade brown rice as the main binding agent should be considered of the same caliber as 5 star food with white potato.

In my opinion human grade brown rice should be considered a quality ingredient that is not red flagged.
