I've heard many who say two different kinds of foods
should be given, just in case the manufacturer of one
changes recipes, etc. and the fuzzies refuse to eat
it. I'd like to know opinions on this and if there's
a brand that's recommended over others.

We used Marshall's and switched months ago to Shepard
and Green because we heard it was healthier and better
than the food with fish, and we definitely noticed a
difference in the 'output' smell... for the better.
But having said that, is the fish oil 'better' for
them than oils used in other non-fish brands?
