Two Foods, One Method. Each row is one measure; the best figure in a row is marked.

	01 Jinx Grain-Free Beef Paté Swap Remove	02 Jinx Chicken Homemades Swap Remove	+ Add A Food	+ Add A Food
01 Protein, Dry Matter Higher Is Better 26-32% dm reads typical mainstream.	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté 36.4%	02 Chicken Homemades 40.9% Best in this row
02 Carbohydrate Load, Dry Matter Lower Is Better Estimated, 6% ash assumed. iEstimated, not measured. It is what is left of the guaranteed analysis once protein, fat, fiber and moisture are taken out, with ash assumed at 6%. That leftover is mostly starch but also carries sugars and the fiber a crude-fiber test misses, so read it as a close estimate rather than an exact figure. Measured as fed, the same basis as the bag.	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté 25% 1.5% as fed	02 Chicken Homemades 14% 0.0% as fed
03 Named Proteins In The First Five Count of named animal proteins. iThe count matches any named animal word in the opening five ingredients, so it also counts animal fats and flavourings as proteins. It is shown because it is one of the five measured lines, but it is too rough to call a winner on.	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté 3 of 5	02 Chicken Homemades 1 of 5
04 Flagged Additives Lower Is Better Matched against the flag list.	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté 1 Menadione	02 Chicken Homemades None Best in this row
05 Brand Recall History Level Manufacturer, not recipe.	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté None	02 Chicken Homemades None
Starch, As Fed iEstimated, not measured. It is what is left of the guaranteed analysis once protein, fat, fiber and moisture are taken out, with ash assumed at 6%. That leftover is mostly starch but also carries sugars and the fiber a crude-fiber test misses, so read it as a close estimate rather than an exact figure. Measured as fed, the same basis as the bag.	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté 1.5%	02 Chicken Homemades 0.0%

Price / Lb Lowest Across Bag Sizes	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté $3.10 12.8 oz bag, Walmart	02 Chicken Homemades $6.13 9.6 oz bag, Walmart
Cost / 1,000 Kcal Lower Is Cheaper To Feed What the same amount of energy costs, so a denser food is not penalized for a higher price per pound.	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté $6.30 Best in this row	02 Chicken Homemades $12.02
First Five Ingredients	01 Grain-Free Beef Paté Beef, Fish Broth, Vegetable Broth, Beef Liver, Dried Sweet Potatoes	02 Chicken Homemades Chicken, carrot, brown rice, peas, kale

Every figure here is the food's own. Protein and carbohydrate are converted to dry matter so foods of different moisture can be set beside each other; starch is estimated from the guaranteed analysis with ash assumed at 6.0%, and the recall record belongs to the manufacturer rather than to the recipe. Two rows are printed but never marked: the named-protein count, because the detection behind it is too rough to call a winner on, and calories, because neither more nor fewer is better without knowing the dog.
