INGREDIENT
Whole Grain Brown Rice
Brown rice kept whole, with the bran and germ intact rather than milled away as they are in white rice.
Why It Turns Up In Dog Food
- Keeps the fiber, magnesium and B vitamins that milling would strip, with slower energy release.

What matters is how much of it there is and where it sits in the list. That is why we weigh
the top five rather than reacting to any single name further down.
