Okay, I have put together a glop and would like to know if this sounds okay to everyone, I am starting week 3
2 eggs w/shell
some Romaine
some Spinach
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
less than a 1/2 cup lain yogurt
about 1/2 of a small clove of garlic
(my 6 year old daughter says it tastes good! )
and I plan to add 4 or 5 pounds of ground beef
As Always Thanks
Mike
As I recall, you are doing the Leerburg suggestions, right? With poultry backs?
I think your glop looks great to go with backs.
You can change it up, of course, as you find cheap farmers' market stuff, etc.
You are doing organ meat, right? 5-10% of the diet? I'd probably leave the eggs out and keep them separate next time so I could give the glop almost every day and not necessarily give eggs every day...... but minor item. :> Just my own preference.
P.S. I imagine that DOES taste good. Kind of like Green Goddess dressing.
No to hijack - but... I thought that the point of yogurt was the live culture (probiotics) right? If you mix it with vinegar will it kill those bacteria? And if you freeze yogurt will it kill them as well?
I'm asking because I add yogurt on top of the meal as the last thing that goes on, fresh out of container from the fridge.
If I can add it to my glop that would be (of course) ideal since it's one less step.

Anyone?
I checked that out once when I wated to freeze some quarts of on-sale yogurt.
According to Stonyfield.com (a brand with live cultures):
QUOTE: A cup of yogurt that has been frozen and thawed will have a different look and texture than fresh yogurt. The cultures become dormant when frozen, but once thawed either in the refrigerator or by your body heat when ingested; they will become live and active once again. There will be a few cultures that do die, but there are so many billions in our products, that it is truly insignificant. END
And what about bones? If you are not adding bones you will either need to add more eggshells or some other calcium source, otherwise your diet will be too high in phosphorus.
I have heard from some sources that you should add some vitamin C. My "pulp", had about 1/2 tsp of powdered Vitamin C per meal. I also added a Vitamin E capsule (broken open). I know Ed recommends a source of Omega 3 and he uses Salmon Oil. I used ground flaxseeds myself (probably not as good).
I also remember reading that garlic is toxic for dogs. Why do you add garlic? Is there a benefit I didn't know about?

Angela - I've never heard that garlic was toxic for dogs. In fact, I've given whole raw cloves for years to help keep away fleas and other pests...it's never given me any problems.
