I worked at an animal feed plant once upon a time. It was all people-food grade ingredients, but the factory and equipment were not exactly maintained at the level you'd like to hope for your normal packaged food.
That said, I'm pretty sure everyone there had this place on their "shit hits the fan" list as a way to pick up months worth of calories in an emergency.
I can't speak to animal food, but I know plenty of folks that are too poor for insurance so when they get an infection they take fish amoxicillin. It's dirt cheap and you don't need a prescription.
I don't recommend it because it contributes to the issue with antibiotic resistant bacteria and I believe most people won't take it right, but I've been that poor with an abscessed tooth. So I took it for a week to kill the infection and saved up to have that tooth yanked. Sometimes you've gotta do what you've gotta do to survive.
America sounds more horrific every time I hear about it
There are some pretty awesome things as well, but none of them are related to healthcare or my abscessed tooth.
Very few, if any, of those "awesome" things are in any way unique to the US though.
I think that's the thing that Americans need to realize.
