Ingredient concerns
- Soy (medium concern): Soy is a common allergen in dogs and cats. It contains phytoestrogens that may affect hormonal balance, though the clinical significance in pets is not fully established. Often used as an inexpensive protein and carbohydrate filler. Most soy in pet food is genetically modified.
- Caramel Color (high concern): Certain classes of caramel color (Class III and IV, produced with ammonia or ammonia-sulfite processes) contain 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI), which has been classified as 'possibly carcinogenic to humans' (Group 2B) by IARC. California's Proposition 65 lists 4-MEI as a carcinogen. Like other color additives, it provides no nutritional benefit to pets.
Guaranteed analysis (dry-matter basis)
On a dry-matter basis (water removed for a fair wet-vs-dry comparison): protein 13.1%, fat 7.1%, fiber 3.6%, ash 8.3%, carbohydrate 67.9%. By calories: 13.3% from protein, 17.6% from fat, 69.1% from carbohydrate.
