    I used to feed my dog this stuff as a boy….

    It was a cereal based food that I would mix with a meat based food….

    Honestly,,.. I never thought about it for probably 40 years (I’m 52 now)

    Good work in seeing the beauty of this nondescript aspect of the American Culinary Scene.

      Thanks Leslie- So glad to document your family legacy. The Cadet shots in Boerum Hill have been covered I believe. It was once off Bond and Bergen I believe.

    I am a nephew of the owner of cadet dog food. How are you related? I even worked at the factory while I was in college. Please respond.

    I believe you also had a brother. I left the NY area over 11 years ago and live in Florida. I have a Pearlstein Family Tree if you are interested. My e-mail address is bsp2@comcast.net

    My father and uncle, Fred & Robert Littmann, were over-the-road truck drivers for Re-Dan in the 50’s & 60’s. I visited the plants in Ozone Park & Maspeth a ton of times. I saw Dan Pearlstein a few times, and met Si Sanders a lot.
    I found this page while searching for a logo to have embroidered on a shirt I just bought.
