Delights is a wet food line built around beef. Beef is the first ingredient in all five recipes, and chicken appears in all five as well. Egg shows up only in the three Hearty Gravy recipes. Every recipe is sold for adult dogs.
Protein doesn't vary at all. Each recipe lists 8% as fed, slightly under the 8.3% average across the 866 wet foods in our catalog. The real split is between two styles. The three Hearty Gravy recipes list 3% fat and 82% moisture, at 859 to 860 kcal per kg. Porterhouse Savory Juices and Top Sirloin Flavor list 6% fat and 78% moisture, at 1,120 kcal per kg.
All five recipes are grain free, and all five contain peas or lentils and potato, so owners avoiding any of those will not find an option in this line. Protein sources barely change, since every recipe pairs beef with chicken and none is a single-protein food. The choice mostly comes down to the lighter gravy style or the richer juices style.
