Ingredient Review

Our review of Fancy Feast Sliced Chicken Feast in Gravy Canned Cat Food begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.

The first ingredient is Poultry Broth. Poultry broth is made by boiling meat, skin, and bones from poultry such as chicken and turkey to obtain nutrients including fat, vitamins, and minerals. In pet food, poultry broth increases moisture and improves flavor.

The second 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 third ingredient is Liver. Liver is a general name for a protein-rich organ meat from any animal. The liver in pet food can be a source of important minerals including zinc, copper, iron, and selenium, but depending on its source, can be of low quality.

The fourth ingredient is Wheat Gluten. Wheat gluten is a good source of digestible protein. In pet food, wheat gluten is used as a binding agent and texturizer as well as a protein source.

The fifth ingredient is Meat By-Products. The meat by-products in pet food may be organs such as liver, kidneys, lungs, heart, and more, as well as meat left over from butchering. While meat by-products include offal that isn’t meant for human consumption, it may not contain hooves, horns, teeth, or animal hides.

When we analyzed the ingredients in Fancy Feast Sliced Chicken Feast in Gravy Canned Cat Food, we found that most of the protein is derived from meat based sources.
