Paté Turkey & Giblets Dinner
The name says turkey, but the ingredient list puts it fourth, after meat by-products, water and poultry by-products. That's allowed for a “dinner”: labeling rules only require the named ingredients together to make up 25% of the food, not counting added water. What's in the can is a paté for adult cats, 78% water and 171 calories, that Purina says meets AAFCO's nutrient profile for adult maintenance.

Nutrition
Labels print these numbers with the water still in, which makes a can look weak next to a bag. The dry-matter column takes the water out, so the two compare fairly.

Where to buy
Store links go to each retailer’s own product page. PawFYI isn’t paid for them, and a store never changes the numbers. If that changes, anything paid will be labeled “Sponsored”. How we make money
