Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have a box of Milk Bone flavor snacks, a box of Beneful Baked Delights and one of Raw Boost Bites, lets see how they stack up with the first few ingredients.
Milk Bone: Wheat flour, wheat bran, wheat and bone meal, poultry by-products, beef fat, wheat germ, salt---and then a list of ingredients that no one can pronounce.
Beneful: Wheat flour, ground corn, glycerin, sugar, corn gluten, water, chicken by-product, preserved animal fat----and then to the food color dye etc...
Raw Boost: Chicken, turkey, turkey liver, turkey heart, pumpkin seed, apples, carrots, butternut squash, flax-seed, montmorillonite clay, broccoli, lettuce, spinach, dried kelp, vinegar, parsley, salmon oil, citric acid, rosemary, blueberries etc. No food color, preservatives that are difficult to pronounce. They are made by a small company in NE that obviously care about the health of our pets.
Another interesting comparison is the amount moisture and protein. Milk Bone: 12% moisture, 15% protein.
Beneful: 20% moisture, 14% protein.
Raw Boost: 4% moisture 40% protein.
Rather interesting I thought, we usually don't have time to check out what's in our pets food at the store, always in a hurry. I just thought you might like look at this too.
Anyway, back to the treats! We have two min. schnauzers who always love their "goodies"----and they are rather picky about their food. The Raw Boost Bites passed with flying colors, so I (with tongue in cheek) think these are the ones that picky pets would choose.
Would recommend this product to any pet lover.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My dog is a 62lb English Bulldog/German Shepherd mix that repeatedly suffers from allergies, especially food allergies. He can also be a bit of a picky eater when it comes to his treats so finding the right mix can often be difficult. I always have reservations about trying new treats as a large majority of popular dog treats today are filled with terrible ingredients not to mention carrying a high price tag. I'm always willing to try a new treats so here are my thoughts on Nature's Variety Instinct Raw Boost Bites Freeze-Dried Chicken Treats;Pros
+ High in protein, 40%.
+ Minimally processed and freeze dried raw ingredients.
+ Dog loved them.
Cons
Expensive. $10 for four ounces is a lot.
High in fat, 34%.
Messy and crumbly texture.
My dog really enjoyed Nature's Variety Instinct Raw Boost Bites Freeze-Dried Chicken Treats. Despite being extremely high in fat content the freeze dried raw ingredients are quite healthy compared to many of treats on the market. Unfortunately, the high price tag on these treats would make me hesitant about purchasing them on a regular basis.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program We have four cats. Two of them went crazy over these treats and fought with each other to claim every last bit of the treat. A third one tried them once and never could be induced to try them again, and the fourth refused to have anything to do with them. Every other cat treat we have brought into the house has always been greeted with unamimous enthusiasm, so I don't really know what to think of this. Your mileage may vary; for my part, if I am going to pay this kind of money for a cat treat, I want something I know everyone is going to like. Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Our dog loved the Nature's Variety Instinct Raw Boost Bites Freeze-Dried Treats, Chicken, 4-Ounce Package, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is working on training their dog. The ingredients are healthy, and apparently it is quite tasty.I gave it four stars, because the treats are a little larger than I would like. Of course, you can just break them in pieces to make great rewards. They crumble a bit, but those crumbs still work! Our dog still hasn't got all of the commands down, but at least she looked forward to the training. Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program NATURE'S VARIETY INSTINCT RAW BOOST BITES FREEZE-DRIED TREATS (aka "Boost Bites") provides a little treat for my cat, that isnt the JUNK FOOD normally found in name brand cat treats. The Friskies cat treats contain Brewers Rice, chicken meal, corn meal, animal fat, animal liver, malt, artificial flavors, brewers yeast, and a chemistry lab of various preservatives, and artificial colors.
Compare that to the RAW ingrediants of BOOST BITES: Chicken, Turkey, Turkey liver and heart, Pumpkin Seeds, Apples, Carrots, ground chicken bone, butternut squash, ground flaxseed, clay (for natural vitamins), broccoli, lettuce, spinach, kelp, vinegar, parsley, honey, salmon oil, olive oil, Vitamin E, Rosemary, blueberries, Alfalfa sprouts, permissons, sage, and clove.
The BOOST BITES are a RAW FOOD. For years I've been eating a raw food diet for dinner, consisting of MUESLI. Muesli was invented by a Swiss doctor, consisting of various raw grains, dried fruit, and unbaked seeds and nuts, soaked in soy milk. The concept behind raw foods, is that cooking destroys the enzymes in food, as well as many vitamins, which our body requires. If I'm going to eat a raw diet for my health, I might as well share that benefit with my cat. Our pets arent that different than us, and i'm NOT anthopomorphizing. They require these raw enzymes just like we do, and our pets are healthier with them. If I didnt believe in the health benefits of raw food, I wouldnt spend the extra money for Muesli.
Needless to say, a raw food diet means nothing to my cat. He eats Boost Bites cos he thinks they taste great. In fact, I gave him a taste test, placing a bit of BOOST BITES, next to his Friskies treats. He goobled down the Boost Bites, and left the Friskies Treats lay there untouched. (Tho he ate those too, when he figured out he wasnt getting more Boost Bites.)These cost a bit more than the treats from the grocery store, but they are his vitamin suppliment. Along with the EFA fish oil capsels I squeeze on his food, my cat's recieving an excellent diet. His digestion is good, and his coat doesnt flake off all this excessive dander, that used to cause him to scratch himself raw. A healthy cat is a happy cat. And a happy cat, is a happy cat owner.
