I have stopped keeping dark chocolate in the house to be uber-sure my chihuahua doesn’t get into it….so this could be a new staple! Jules I’m curious your thoughts on peanut butter….I’ve heard a lot against it (aflatoxin, rancidity) but seems maybe those concerns are overblown the more I read.
Good question Carol,
The aflatoxin concern is real so I make sure I buy my peanut butter from a specialist who I trust would do the quality control to avoid this one. And with rancidity, you can detect that yourself, however again a good quality supplier makes all the difference!
Love that your chihuahua likes the finer things in life 😉

I couldn’t live without my peanut butter.
