We are in the middle of a hay shortage, and I can feed it when hay is scarce or non existant. If you look at the ingredients of a lot of commercial feeds, beet pulp is probably one of the main ingredients. I add my pelleted feed to it in a bucket, then I add water to the mix. I let it sit for a while before feeding. I have never had a horse choke on it, nor colic. The horses absolutely love it! And there's not enough molasses in it to make a difference - it just gives it a little flavor. You can taste it for yourself - it's safe.
