Ingredient Wiki
Salmon
The flesh of salmon, an oily cold-water fish, used fresh.

Peas
The seed of the pea plant, used whole, split or dried as a carbohydrate and plant protein source.
Potatoes
The tuber of the potato plant, cooked and used as a grain-free carbohydrate.
Pea Protein
The protein fraction separated out from peas after the starch and fiber have been removed.
Our read The ingredients
Salmon leads, but peas and potatoes carry it
Signature feature
Fresh salmon
Always made with fresh salmon (that means no meat meal)
What it is Raw salmon flesh, listed first. It's weighed wet, at roughly 70% water, so after the kibble is cooked dry it supplies far less of each cup than its top spot suggests.
Our grade
- Marketing
- Modest
- Meaningful
Meal is just salmon with the water cooked out, not a lower grade. Once that water leaves, pea and potato protein do much of the lifting, and protein still lands below the average dry food.
Modest Real, but smaller than the pack makes it sound.
All five fruits and vegetables named on the front sit 22nd to 26th, below the salt. At that depth, mango's fiber pitch is decoration.

Is it a high-protein food?
No
Salmon leads, yet protein sits below the average dry food we list, and pea protein and potato protein supply a share of it.
