Ingredient Review
Our review of Temptations Tasty Chicken Flavor Adult Dry Cat Food begins with a detailed look at the food’s ingredients.
The first ingredient is Chicken By-Product Meal. In pet food, chicken by-product meal is often listed as a source of protein. Chicken by-product meal is produced by baking and grinding chicken parts that might not be used for human consumption including necks, feet, entrails, and undeveloped eggs.
The second ingredient is Wheat. Wheat is a cereal grain that is used in baked products worldwide. The wheat in pet food is a source of carbohydrates, fiber, protein, and other nutrients. It can enhance a crunchy food’s texture or thicken a moist food.
The third ingredient is Ground Whole Grain Corn. Ground whole grain corn is made with cooked and/or dried kernels from any corn species. In pet food, ground whole grain corn can be a filler as well as source of inexpensive protein, carbohydrates, and fiber.
The fourth ingredient is Soybean Meal. Soybean meal is the pulverized, ground remnants of soybeans after soy oil has been extracted. In pet food, soybean meal serves as an inexpensive source of plant-based protein, along with some carbohydrates.
The fifth ingredient is Brewers Rice. Brewers rice is a byproduct of the beer industry. The brewers rice in pet food has been dried and ground for use as a carbohydrate source, often in gluten-free recipes.
