Declaration
Exactly as the can prints it, heaviest first
Water sufficient for processing, chicken, beef liver, tomato, beef, carrots, wheat flour, pork plasma, peas, ground flaxseed, powdered cellulose, vegetable oil, fish oil, guar gum, sodium tripolyphosphate, potassium chloride, natural flavors, xanthan gum, magnesium oxide, trace minerals [zinc oxide, ferrous sulfate, copper sulfate, manganous oxide, sodium selenite, calcium iodate], vitamins [DL-alpha tocopherol acetate (source of vitamin e), D-calcium pantothenate, thiamine mononitrate (vitamin b1), niacin supplement, vitamin A supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin b6), vitamin B12 supplement, folic acid, vitamin D3 supplement]
Ingredients are listed heaviest first, and a dog food needs very little salt, so the tail of the list is present in very small amounts.
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.

Carbohydrate is not on any label: it is what is left after protein, fat, fiber, water and an assumed 2% ash.
