What to watch for

• Corn Low risk
  Cooked corn is a digestible source of energy and some protein. It is often criticised but is not a common allergen; its main risk is mould toxins (aflatoxin) when quality control is poor.
• Brewers rice Low risk
  Small broken pieces of rice left over from milling. Digestible energy but fewer nutrients than whole rice.
• Corn gluten meal Low risk
  The protein left after starch is removed from corn. It raises the protein number on the label cheaply, but plant protein is less complete than meat protein.
• Wheat gluten Low risk
  Wheat protein used to bind wet foods and raise the protein number. Less complete than animal protein.
• Pea fiber Low risk
  Fiber from pea hulls. A legume ingredient, so it counts toward the legume load in grain-free foods.
• Powdered cellulose Low risk
  Purified plant fiber used to add bulk, often in weight-control foods. Safe, but provides no 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.
• Vegetable oil Low risk
  An unnamed plant oil. Fine as energy, but the label does not say which plant it came from.

What it does well

• Taurine added
  Cats need taurine in their diet; this label lists it.
