Shreds Turkey & Cheese Dinner In Gravy Wet Cat Food
Meat by-products come before the turkey in this Turkey & Cheese Dinner, and 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. It's 82% water and 129 calories a can, and Purina says it meets AAFCO's profile for adult cats.

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.
