Are Beef Cheek Rolls Bleached?

If you’re like most pet parents, you want only the best for your four-legged friend, and you want to buy some beef cheek rolls, but you’re not sure if they’re safe.  

It’s hard to know which beef cheek rolls are safe and unbleached. As many chews on the market can undergo intense processing before they reach shelves, so you might not know who to trust.

Our beef cheek rolls are 100% natural and unbleached. We only use the highest quality ingredients in our products, so you can feel confident that you’re getting a safe and healthy chew.

But what’s in a Barking Buddha Beef Cheek? Let’s take a closer look at the awesome chew, the beef cheek roll.

What Are Beef Cheek Rolls?

Beef cheek rolls are a type of beef chew that can be an excellent option for your pup. They are made from beef cheeks that have been cleaned and trimmed, then rolled and dried. Cheek rolls are a great source of protein, and because they are dried, they are also a healthy and long-lasting chew. 

Are Beef Cheek Rolls Bleached?

No, our beef cheek rolls are not bleached. In fact, none of our chews here at Barking Buddha Pet are bleached, and we don’t use any chemicals, additives, artificial colors, or flavors in any of our products. 

We believe that dogs deserve the same quality ingredients we would want in our own food, which is why we only use all-natural, human-grade ingredients.

Why Are Beef Cheek Rolls White?

The reason that they are white is that they are dried. The drying process removes the moisture from the beef cheek, which causes it to lighten in color.

However, some manufacturers may artificially use bleaching agents to lighten the color of their beef cheek rolls. We do not do this at Barking Buddha Pet, as we believe it is unnecessary and potentially harmful to dogs.

Furthermore, while beef cheek rolls might resemble the dreaded rawhide chew, the processing process is vastly different. So be sure you don’t judge this chew by its color.

Are Beef Cheek Rolls Safe for Dogs?

Yes, beef cheek rolls are safe for dogs. These healthy, safe chews are typically made from all-natural, single ingredients and free from chemicals, additives, and artificial colors or flavors.

For beef cheeks to get their rolled shape, air is added to “puff” up the beef cheek, and as it drys, it hardens into the rolled shape. Meaning there are no additives to keep that chewalicious shape.

Are Beef Cheek Rolls the Same as Rawhide?

No, beef cheeks are not the same as rawhide chews. Rawhide chews are made from the inner layer of a cow’s hide, which is then chemically treated and often bleached. This treatment makes rawhide chews potentially harmful to dogs, as the chemicals used in their processing can be toxic.

Furthermore, because of over-processing, rawhides can also be brittle and easily splinter and break, potentially causing choking, hurt your dog’s mouth, or digestive blockages for your pup.

In contrast, beef cheek rolls are made from all-natural beef cheeks that have been cleaned, trimmed, and dried. They do not contain any chemicals or artificial additives and are a healthy and safe option for dogs.

When Does A Beef Cheek Become Dangerous?

Overall these chews are a safe, healthy treat for your pup to get their chew on. However, there can be times when these chews become dangerous.

If your dog breaks off a large piece of the cheek roll, it can easily choke. Be sure to keep an eye on your pup while they enjoy their chew, and take it away if they break it into smaller pieces.

Pro Tip: Small bits that are broken off are naturally digestible, so you don’t have to worry too much, but take your dog to the vet if you notice any unusual signs. 

Another time beef cheek rolls can become dangerous is if your dog is a heavy chewer. If your dog chews through the entire roll, it could potentially choke on the small, hard pieces.

It is essential to supervise your dog while chewing on any treat or toy. And to take it away when you notice damage to the toy. If you have a heavy chewer, it may be best to give them a bully stick instead of a beef cheek roll.

The Benefits of Beef Cheek Rolls

Beef cheek rolls offer a variety of benefits for dogs. They are a great source of protein, which can help to maintain muscle mass and strength. They are also a healthy and long-lasting chew, as the drying process removes the moisture from the beef and makes it less likely to spoil.

Giving your dog a natural chew is critical to their dental health. Chewing helps to remove plaque and tartar from teeth, and beef cheek rolls are the perfect size for smaller dogs. They can also help reduce anxiety and boredom, as chewing is calming and provides a sense of satisfaction.
