READING THE LIST

What’s in the can

First ingredient
Water, 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. Named meats near the top: Chicken, Pork Lung, Pork Liver, Chicken Liver and Lamb.
Thickeners and binders
Rice Flour, Carrageenan and Sodium Tripolyphosphate. They give the food its texture and hold pieces together. Normal in wet food; starches and flours also add carbohydrate.
Added color
Caramel Color. Color is there for the person opening the can; it adds nothing for the dog.
Flagged additives
None from our list.

Water, Chicken, Pork Lung, Pork Liver, Chicken Liver, Lamb, Brown Rice, Rice Flour, Carrots, Tomato, Cellulose, Flaxseed, Spinach, Natural Flavors, Carob Gum, Carrageenan, Sodium Tripolyphosphate, Xanthan, Caramel Color, Potassium Chloride, Magnesium Oxide, Vitamin E Supplement, Zinc Oxide, Ferrous Sulfate, Calcium Carbonate, Zinc Proteinate, Copper Sulfate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Biotin, Manganous Oxide, Sodium Selenite, Niacin, d-Calcium Pantothenate, Riboflavin, Calcium Iodate, Vitamin A Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Folic Acid

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 8.0% 36.4% 43.2%

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

    RECALL HISTORY // EUKANUBA

    1 FDA Recall On Record

    AUG 14, 2013
    POTENTIAL SALMONELLA

    Limited lots of Iams and Eukanuba dry dog and cat food (P&G) Matched by brand. The notice lists the exact products and lots.

    None in the last three years. Older events stay on the record. See the recall log

    SAME LINE

    Other Flavors

    Adult Chicken & Vegetable Stew , case of 12 42.1% Adult Mixed Grill Chicken & Beef Dinner in Gravy , case of 12 44.4% Puppy with Lamb & Rice , case of 12 39.1% Puppy Mixed Grill Chicken & Beef Dinner in Gravy , case of 12 43.4%

    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 can. 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.
