...doubt Clinton's enemies will have a field day with that. No doubt his account of the struggle with "my old demons" will seem disingenuous to many readers. No doubt Clinton will feel--as he did when he became the first presidential candidate to admit that his marriage had not "been perfect"--that he has gone the extra mile, established a new level of candor in presidential memoirs and not received any credit for it.

He argues it's the A.V.A.'s alliance with pet food manufacturers that's stopping it from coming clean. Blackman dismisses this as "nonsense": only 0.4% of the A.V.A.'s annual income comes from manufacturers, he says, "and it's certainly not a driver of the recommendations we make about diet." Animals fed a pure Lonsdale diet, he adds, risk missing out on key nutrients and becoming constipated...
