Since 1932, Bonio biscuits have been traditionally oven-baked.^[4]

According to 'Scotsman,' UK News outlet; “One Bonio dog biscuit has 78 calories, about 7 per cent of an adult Labrador's daily allowance, if it is exercised normally. This is similar to a KitKat Chunky, which has 207 calories – 8 per cent of an adult man's recommended daily calorie intake.”^[5]
