I understood that statement to mean the goose feathers & down are treated with a solution that protects against bacteria etc. So yes, the fill is goose feathers & down. We love our down pad. One of the best items I have ever purchased. We flip it often & cover it with a padded mattress cover. Hope this helps!

Sorry for late reply Tanya....just catching up on email. Grade B is much much darker in color, has more maple flavor, and is richer in minerals. It is usually used in baking, and some that use it on pancakes, etc. say that they use less because of it's thicker richer flavor. I personally, use it (or local honey) for anything I want to sweeten! Once you've had real Grade B, you will most definitely be able to tell the difference! Enjoy!

Years ago I noticed in the duck patties. They said they were getting a finer mesh to fix it, and they did. Have not noticed any issues since. I usually get the chicken patties.

I'm not sure why this is not labeled organic but my parrots eat it everyday. They are very healthy. And they love it. I have found this product to be so much better then others online. I have purchased from tropical traditions and always got a black mold after it was opened. This brand does not get it.

The filling is polyester. ... it says to machine wash cold, gentle and separately

Mine came very quickly in the mail (? 5 days tops). It looks like it is "printed" on an edible paper and then sealed- I don't think there is a freshness issue if you order early. Fyi. I placed mine on the cake just before serving- in hindsight I would do it the day before. It was "set" much better after it had been on there for a while. Hope this helps - it is cute!

There are preservatives in it also there is non'toxic food coloring used. I know this brand and Homestead are two major brands that I use and my birds are attracted to it and I fill my feeders up everyday. I have alot of hummingbirds and I have 9 feeders out some hold as much as 32 ozs. I have found that they are particular on what they eat and that's why this brand or homestead. I have used other brands but have to add sugar to get them to drink them. These alone are fine. They come back year after year and I have been feeding them for over 10 years.

I just read the entire label and the only text I see that is even close to descriptive about process is "Expeller-Pressed and Hexane-Free". For what it is worth, the picture on the front of the bottle shows both the flesh and the nut/seed but that could just be a graphic showing what an avocado looks like. There is a website listed: www.nowfoods.com. I use the oil on my face and hair about once a month and really like how it leaves my hair and skin.

Check the back of the package. I cannot tell you about the duck treats because I have already finished that bag but I also bought a bag of Chicken Jerky Treats that came from the same manufacturer and on that bag it says that the chickens are American raised.

It is derived from bone meal. I'm sorry but I personally can't direct you to another product. However, I can direct you to either Google it.

It means that it is not real goose down. It's probably made with man-made filler.

I spoke with the manufacturer of this product and they stated that their preparations guarantee the indicated bacterial count. In other words production involves a 'bug count' of more than content information in case of loss during shipment or anytime not refrigerated. I have also found no difference in using either store bought or those shipped to my home.

Hello, It's not treated or combined with anything. It's light, even "fluffy", but has no inherent taste. If taste is important to you, you'll have to add something.

The response I got from NOW Foods on this issue: No Worry. This is a concentrated extract. Some of the new material is very light. A natural variance and within our specification reflective of a higher concentration in the original material. We've tested and confirmed the lighter color product for identity, purity, and potency.

I won't say "unlimited," but it's very long. These are fully dried fish flakes, and so long as you keep them in a tight package to keep moisture out (or live in a very dry area), they seem to last and last. I use them as a pet treat, and when I buy a big package, I use it quite slowly. I've never noticed any mold or deterioration.

I put some in the fillable tank when I am done filling. The anti-bacterial does foam up a bit, that is why I pour it in at the end.

I purchased mine less than a year ago, I purchased with the ad/idea it is 'chemical/toxin' free. the filling is pure 100% kapok fibers. Also, I believe 'flame retardants' are or are in the process of being banned. Here is the co. online that filled my order from the pillow product tag, Bean Product co. BTW, great pillow well worth it the best I've used to date, better than poly fill. http://www.beanproducts.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=001&Product_Code=7ZFKAPOK&Category_Code=Products_All
