Insect-Infused Dog Food Toppers

Neo Bites' Functional Meal Toppers Include a Super-Insect Blend

— December 18, 2021 — Eco
Neo Bites recently launched its first functional meal toppers and these products are designed to address specific health and wellness concerns with nutritious superfoods and a protein-packed Super-Insect Blend. The hypoallergenic recipes for dogs are powered by whole foods and cricket protein. Wesley Cooper, co-founder of Neo Bites, notes "The pet food industry is traditionally a major environmental burden and contributor to climate change. If America's dogs and cats had their own country, their meat consumption would rank fifth in the world."

There's a Health Aid Topper made with kale, oats, turmeric and kelp, a Digestive Aid Topper with ginger, pumpkin and apple, and a Skin & Coat Aid Topper made with flaxseed and peanut. Pets that love these functional meal toppers will also appreciate the brand's Original Dog Treats, which are also made with the nutritious Super-Insect Blend.
Trend Themes
1. Super-insects for Pets - The use of sustainable and protein-packed super-insects in pet food to address health and environmental concerns.
2. Functional Meal Toppers for Pets - The development of nutrient-packed meal toppers for pets that target specific health concerns and serve as a supplement to regular pet food.
3. Hypoallergenic Pet Food - The creation of pet food recipes that use whole foods instead of meat to minimize environmental impact and reduce pet allergies.
Industry Implications
1. Pet Food - The pet food industry can innovate by incorporating sustainable and nutrient-packed super-insects, developing functional meal toppers, and exploring hypoallergenic recipe options for pets.
2. Agriculture - The agriculture industry can explore the potential of using insects as a sustainable and protein-rich alternative to traditional livestock feed and pet food ingredients.
3. Environmental Sustainability - The environmental sustainability industry can focus on creating eco-friendly and sustainable solutions for pet food production and consumption to reduce the industry's overall impact on the environment.
