Ingredient Wiki
Water
Plain water, used to make the recipe mixable and, in wet food, to fill the can.
Chicken
The clean flesh of the chicken, with or without skin, used fresh. Roughly 70% of its weight is water, most…
Meat By-Products
The parts of a mammal left after the flesh is removed, without the animal being named.
Wheat Flour
Flour milled from wheat, generally with the bran and germ removed.
Wheat Gluten
The protein fraction separated from wheat after the starch is washed away.
What’s in the serving
- 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 and Lamb.
- Thickeners and binders
- Wheat Flour, Wheat Gluten, Guar Gum, Sodium Tripolyphosphate 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
- Added Color. Color is there for the person opening the serving; it adds nothing for the dog.
- Flagged additives
- None from our list.

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.
