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.
| NUTRIENT | ON THE LABEL | WATER OUT | WET FOOD MEDIAN |
|---|---|---|---|
| PROTEIN | 9.0% | 40.9% | 43.2% |
| FAT | 6.0% | 27.3% | 22.2% |
| FIBER | 1.5% | 6.8% | - |
| CARBS (EST.) | - | 15.9% | - |
Carbohydrate is not on any label: it is what is left after protein, fat, fiber, water and an assumed 2% ash.
