Does anyone know if these pellets are cooked or contain cooked ingredients? or go through a heating process?

I am not very familiar with 'how the sausage is made' lol but have seen a few things out there.

Difference between wet/dry extrusion: https://www.quora.com/What-are-the-...et-extrusion-when-producing-fish-feed-pellets

This is from NortfFin "Double screw Steam Extrusion is a gentle form of cooking which means beneficial nutrients are kept intact right through to the finished product
unlike conventional dry extruding process that degrades and destroys significant percentage of nutrients and vitamins."

Not saying I support NorthFin at all, just quoting from their website the process they say they use. http://www.canadian-aquatic-feed.com/
