Hi havapup6 –

Not all containers with the number 7 contain BPA, so I wouldn’t automatically assume the company is trying to deceive you. “In general, plastics are marked with Resin Identification Codes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are very unlikely to contain BPA. Some, but not all, plastics marked woth the Resin Identification Code 7 may be made with BPA.” I would actually be more apt to assume the food is BPA free – the reason being all large dog food cans (to my knowledge) contain BPA so the reason behind some companies
going to tubs and pouches is to avoid BPA. If there was BPA in the plastic why wouldn’t they just use a can (which would cheaper)? What brand of food are we discussing?
