Ingredient Review
Our review of Almo Nature HQS La Cucina Chicken with Pineapple Grain-Free Cat Food Pouches begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Chicken. Chicken is meat from the domesticated bird of the same name. In pet food, chicken is used as a primary protein source.
The second ingredient is Water Sufficient. In pet food, the term water sufficient typically refers to the amount of water that is needed to process the rest of the ingredients.
The third ingredient is Pineapple. Pineapple is a tropical fruit that we humans enjoy as a sweet treat. In pet food, pineapple is often added for its bromelain content rather than for its flavor; bromelain is an enzyme that can improve digestion.

The fifth ingredient is Tapioca Starch. Tapioca starch comes from the cassava root. It is often used as a filler or binder, as well as a source of easily digested carbohydrates. Tapioca starch is typically added to grain-free and gluten-free pet foods.
