Ingredient Review
Our review of Evanger's Classic Recipes Goin' Fishin' Dinner Grain-Free Canned Cat Food begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Salmon. Salmon is meat from any fish in the salmon family, and in pet food, salmon might also refer to other parts of the fish including skin and organs. Salmon is an excellent source of protein, and it is a good source of Omega-3 fatty acids.
The second ingredient is Fish Broth. Fish broth is a byproduct of the seafood cooking process, and can contain fish of any kind. In pet food, fish broth adds flavor and aroma, along with some nutrients.
The third ingredient is Chicken Liver. Chicken liver is one of a few organ meats that come from a chicken. In pet food, chicken liver serves as a source of protein, iron, and amino acids.
The fourth ingredient is Guar Gum. Guar gum is a thickening agent that is derived from the guar bean. In pet food, guar gum helps food keep its shape and it doubles as a source of fiber. Since guar gum can slow digestion, it’s sometimes found in foods designed to help your pet lose weight.
The fifth ingredient is Brewers Dried Yeast. In pet food, brewer’s dried yeast serves as a source of essential B vitamins, zinc, and biotin. Brewer’s dried yeast can help keep your pet’s skin and coat healthy.
