READING THE LIST

What’s in the cup

First ingredient
Chicken Broth, there for moisture. Almost every wet food opens with water or broth; what follows it is the recipe.
First meat
Chicken, second on the list.
Thickeners and binders
Cassava Flour, Tapioca Starch, Animal Plasma, Guar Gum and Xanthan Gum. They give the gravy its body and hold pieces together. Normal in wet food; starches and flours also add carbohydrate.
Added color
Iron Oxide and Paprika Oleoresin. Color is there for the person opening the cup; it adds nothing for the dog.
Flagged additives
None from our list.

Full Ingredient
Declaration

Exactly as the cup prints it, heaviest first

Chicken Broth, Chicken, Green Peas, Cassava Flour, Carrot, Tapioca Starch, Animal Plasma, Calcium Carbonate, Guar Gum, Natural Flavors, Yeast Extract, Minerals (Dicalcium Phosphate, Potassium Chloride, Magnesium Sulfate, Ferrous Sulfate, Copper Amino Acid Chelate, Manganese Amino Acid Chelate, Zinc Sulfate, Potassium Iodide, Sodium Selenite), Xanthan Gum, Vitamins (Vitamin A Supplement, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Folic Acid, Choline Chloride), Vitamin E Supplement, Iron Oxide (color), Paprika Oleoresin (color)

Ingredients are listed heaviest first, and a dog food needs very little salt, so the tail of the list is present in very small amounts.

NUTRITION WITH THE WATER TAKEN OUT

Wet food is mostly water, so the label’s percentages look small next to kibble. Taking the water out is the only fair way to compare it with other foods.

NUTRIENT ON THE LABEL WATER OUT WET FOOD MEDIAN
PROTEIN 6.0% 46.2% 43.2%
FAT 3.5% 26.9% 22.2%
FIBER 0.5% 3.8% -
CARBS (EST.) - 7.7% -

Carbohydrate is not on any label: it is what is left after protein, fat, fiber, water and an assumed 2% ash.

    RECALL HISTORY // INABA

    No Recalls In Our Record Since 2012

    We have not matched any FDA recall to INABA. We check the feed daily and this page updates when that changes. See the recall log

    SAME LINE

    Other Flavors

    Churu Meal in Gravy Chicken Recipe with Vegetables & Beef 46.2%

    Protein with the water taken out, read the same way.

    One honest caveat. These figures are what a label will tell us: protein, calories, the top of the ingredient list, flagged additives and the brand’s recall record. They cannot tell you whether your dog will do well on this food. Allergies, gut sensitivity, age and health conditions all matter more than any of it, and none of them are printed on a cup. If your dog is thriving on a food whose figures read lower than this one, that is not a mistake, and we would not switch on our say-so.
