About QUICHE LORRAINE

Some ingredients may require attention: bacon, black pepper, cayenne powder, nutmeg, onion powder. Giving human food and table scraps is usually not a good idea. Feeding pets human food can lead to health issues, including urinary tract infections (UTIs) or bladder stones, as it may disrupt their urinary pH balance. Foods high in sodium, calcium (like dairy), or sugar increase the risk of dehydration, crystal formation, and bacterial infections in pets. While some human foods are safe in moderation, commercial pet foods often contain essential nutrients and supplements—such as taurine, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, glucosamine, and probiotics—that support heart health, joint function, digestion, and overall wellness. These critical nutrients are hard to achieve in home-cooked meals. Always ensure your pet’s diet is balanced and consult a veterinarian to prevent nutrient deficiencies and health risks.
