Nude Super Food is a grain-free kibble line with an animal protein listed first in every recipe. All three recipes list 34% protein, 13 to 14% fat, 4% fiber and 10% moisture, as fed. The real difference between them is the protein source: fish in Simply Sea, beef and bison in Red Meat Medley, and chicken, turkey and egg in Poultry Palooza.
Compared with the catalog average for kibble across 1,834 foods, the line is well above on protein, at 34% against 26.9%. It is lower on estimated starch, at 32 to 33% against 37.4%. Calories run from 385 to 419 kcal per cup, which is close to the catalog average of 395. Red Meat Medley is at the top of that range.
There are some trade-offs. The line has no grain-inclusive option, and every recipe contains peas or lentils plus potato. Red Meat Medley also lists pea protein among its first five ingredients. The line has no wet recipes and nothing made for a single life stage or breed size, since all three are labeled for all life stages and all breeds.
