First 5 ingredients

This is the largest single category in FeedWise. It looks at which animal ingredients are present, whether the species is named, whether organs, egg and named fats are included, and whether concentrated plant proteins are diluting the animal content.

• Named animal protein first

  Pork is a named animal ingredient in position 1.

  +8 / 8

• Animal Prominence Index

  Animal Prominence Index 60 of 100. This is a FeedWise position-weighted measure of how far animal ingredients dominate the ingredient panel. It is a label-position index, not a manufacturer-disclosed recipe percentage.

  +2.7 / 5

• Liver

  Liver is included.

  +2 / 2

• Heart

  No heart in the ingredient panel.

  0 / 2

• Other appropriate organs

  No additional organ meats identified.

  0 / 2

• Whole egg

  No meaningful egg inclusion.

  0 / 1

• Named animal or marine fats

  Named animal or marine fat sources: salmon oil, salmon oil.

  +2 / 2

• Verified animal ingredient proportion

  The manufacturer has not published an animal ingredient percentage. Excluded from the score rather than counted against the product.

  NOT SCORED

Every ingredient is classified into a quality tier and weighted by its position on the label, so ingredient number one counts far more than ingredient number fifteen.

• Position weighted ingredient quality

  24 food ingredients assessed by quality tier with early positions weighted most heavily. 30 fortifying nutrients or preservatives excluded from the average.

  +17.3 / 20

• Vague animal ingredients

  Animal ingredients without an identified species: pork broth.

  -3

• Estimated carbohydrate: not calculable
• Pulse ingredients detected: green peas, red lentils
• Plant protein concentrates: none
• Ingredient splitting: not detected

Carbohydrate is not calculable because ash is not disclosed. It is left blank rather than overstated.

• Carbohydrate burden

  Carbohydrate is not precisely calculable because ash has not been disclosed. This is an evidence limitation, not evidence of high carbohydrate, so it is removed from the score and reported as reduced confidence.

  NOT SCORED

• Ingredient based plant load

  Plant load assessed as HIGH. Carbohydrate bearing plant ingredients: rice (whole grain), green peas (whole pulse), red lentils (whole pulse), guar gum (fibre ingredient), butternut squash (starchy vegetable).

  +2.8 / 8

Processing method: Canned. This category measures food integrity only. Raw handling safety is assessed separately under Safety and Quality Control, so a raw food can score well here and still lose safety points.

• Processing method

  Canned wet-food processing verified from the manufacturer product format.
