Freeze Dried Venison - 2oz

by Whole Life Pet

100% Pure New Zealand Venison

Whole Life Venison Treats are freeze-dried by the same facilities that freeze dry foods for human consumption and therefore are under strict USDA inspection and supervision. Our venison, which is from New Zealand, is USDA inspected and approved for entry into the United States.

Unlike biscuit or jerky manufacturers whose treats can be made in any location by anyone without any oversight, our treats have built-in quality control that meets standards fit for human consumption.

"Freeze-drying" is a unique process that provides product characteristics that cannot be achieved with any other food processing method.

We start by using fresh or cooked foods then flash freeze them in a special vacuum chamber that reaches -50°F. As low-level heat is applied (much less than dehydrating), the ice crystals evaporate without going back to the liquid phase. This process, called "sublimation", removes approximately 98% of the moisture and prevents the food from spoiling-- the ultimate long term storage.

Freeze-drying provides very unique benefits and advantages over other food processing methods. Frozen foods maintain their fresh flavor, but they must remain frozen.

Dehydrated and canned foods are shelf-stable, but their high-temperature processing reduces their flavor, texture, color, and nutrients.

Freeze-drying combines the best of these methods--it locks in the freshness, color, original shape, texture, and aroma of frozen food while providing the shelf-stable convenience of canned or dehydrated food.
