Made with Real Wheat
Wheat is a grain which primarily is used as a source of carbohydrates. It is also an inexpensive source of protein and fat. The more processed the wheat, the more digestible, i.e.: ground wheat will be more digestible than whole wheat. It is not as digestible as rice, but does provide more fats and protein than rice.
Made with Real Oatmeal
Oatmeal is obtained in the manufacture of rolled oat groats or rolled oats and consists of broken oat groats, oat groat chips and floury portions of the oat groats with only such quantity of finely ground oat hulls as is unavoidable in the usual process of commercial milling. It must not contain more than 4% crude fiber. Oatmeal is an excellent source of highly digestible carbohydrates, protein and nutritional fiber.
Made with Real Cane Molasses
Cane molasses is the result of the manufacture of sucrose from sugar cane. It must contain not less than 43% total sugars expressed as invert and not less than 73% total solids. This ingredient is often used as a flavor or natural colorant.
Made with Real Egg
Defined as the dried, whole, cooked eggs (minus shells). It is often added to pet foods to increase the protein biological value. Raw egg whites contain avidin, which binds to biotin (B Vitamin) to make it unavailable to the pet. Therefore, it is not recommended to feed pets raw eggs.
Made with Real Apple
Apples provide both soluble and insoluble fiber, Vitamin C and Beta–Carotene. A high percentage of the fiber that an apple provides is soluble, and the majority of that is a type called pectin.
Made with Real Carrots
Carrots are an excellent source of fiber and minerals. Also a good natural source of beta-carotene, an antioxidant essential for neutralizing free radicals.
