What to watch for

• BHA High risk
  A synthetic preservative that keeps fats from going rancid. The U.S. National Toxicology Program lists BHA as 'reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen' based on animal studies. Natural alternatives (mixed tocopherols) exist.
• Sugar Moderate risk
  Table sugar. Dogs have no dietary need for added sugar; it adds calories and is mainly there to make food more appealing.
• Propylene glycol Moderate risk
  A moisture-keeping additive used in soft and semi-moist foods and treats. The FDA permits it in dog food, but it has no nutritional value, and it is prohibited in cat food because it damages cats' red blood cells.
• Artificial colors Moderate risk
  Unspecified synthetic dyes. They are there for the owner's eye, not the dog's nutrition.
• 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.
• Glycerin Low risk
  A sweet-tasting liquid that keeps soft treats moist. EFSA considers it of low safety concern; it adds calories without nutrients.
• Natural flavor Low risk
  Flavoring from natural sources. Normally safe, but the term can hide which animal or plant it came from, which matters for allergies.
• Potassium sorbate Low risk
  A mould inhibitor used in soft and semi-moist foods and treats. Regulators consider it safe at normal levels.

What it does well

• Named meat first
  First ingredient is beef.
