This is pork rind, which is food in its own right, dried without any of that. The honest caveat is the smell: it has a strong natural aroma that some households find off-putting. If that matters to you, the Beef Plait is a cleaner smelling alternative at a similar chew level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReal pork rind, shaped into a classic bone form and dried. Large is about 19cm, Medium about 15cm. Rates 3 to 4 on the Pets Elite chewyness scale, where 1 is very soft and 5 is very hard. Every piece varies in size, colour and shape because it comes off a different animal — that is what an unbleached product looks like. Sold by unit rather than by weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePork (rind\/skin), vinegar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinegar is used during dehydration as a natural preservative.
