Interestingly, the ingredient statement does not reflect hempseed, but rather cranberries, almonds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, and soy lecithin, in addition to sugar, cocoa butter and cocoa liquor. Hempseed is one of the latest “hot” ingredients, as it contains significant amounts of omega-3 fatty acids. To help reinforce the hemp characteristics, the bar has a drawing of a classic hempseed plant.
Closer reading of the package indicates that only part of the bar should be given at any one time (“It is intended for supplemental feeding only”), and that it should be broken up before being given to a pet. Leftovers have to be re-wrapped. The company also suggests warming it to increase acceptance of the bar by pets.
