What to watch for
- Sodium nitrite Moderate risk
A curing salt that keeps color and stops bacteria in some wet foods and jerky. Nitrites can form nitrosamines, which are a cancer concern at higher exposures. - Meat by-products Low risk
Clean parts of slaughtered mammals other than muscle meat, such as organs. AAFCO says by-products can be nutritious, but the label does not say which animal they came from, so you cannot steer around an allergy. - Poultry by-products Low risk
Fresh poultry parts other than muscle meat, from an unnamed bird species. Nutritious, but less traceable than a named meat. - Iron oxide Low risk
A mineral pigment used to give a brown or red tint. Low concern at the levels used, but purely cosmetic. - Salt Low risk
Salt supplies sodium and chloride, which dogs need. Pet foods use small amounts; high salt is mainly a concern for dogs with heart or kidney disease.
What it does well
- High protein 45.5%
40% or more on a dry-matter basis (cat). - Named meat first
