*** I currently feed dogs, cats, and ferrets a raw meat diet, and the only
chewing they do is to separate pieces small enough to swallow. They do not
chew things into a paste the way many humans do. I was taught to chew my
food very thoroughly before swallowing but I am doing my best to overcome
that conditioning. Wasn't there some weird diet plan that recommended
chewing every bite 30 times before swallowing?
