well, the last time i checked it was still listed as an ingredient in the
Iams Senior that my lovely great lump of a cat eats, but i just checked and
it isn't now. it says "chicken fat (preserved with mixed Tocopherols and
citric acid)" though. is ethoxyquin a tocopherol? or have they changed
the ingredients? anyone?
