Buying Reflex Plus Loose (Repack) vs. 1.5kg Poly Packs

In local markets, you can buy Reflex Plus "Khola" (loose/repacked) in clear plastic bags for slightly less money.
It is tempting for students on a budget. But buying Reflex Plus repack is a gamble.
The Humidity Problem
Reflex Plus is made in Turkey (dry climate). When a big 15kg sack is opened in Dhaka (humid climate) and left open for scooping:
-
Crunch is Gone: The food gets soft.
-
Fats turn Rancid: The healthy oils react with oxygen and taste bad.
-
Fungus: Invisible mold spores start growing within 48 hours.
The Price Difference
-
Loose: ~550-600 BDT per kg.
-
Sealed 1.5kg: ~850-950 BDT (approx 600/kg).
-
Verdict: The price per kg is almost the same!
Summary
You aren't saving much money, but you are risking your cat's health. Always buy the factory-sealed 1.5kg bag with the ziplock.
