AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
Fresh salmon leads, but turkey protein (concentrate) follows and yellow peas occupy third, keeping ingredient quality good but not exceptional. Moisture is missing so protein adequacy on a dry matter basis is uncertain, while estimated carbs exceed 30% DMB due to heavy pea, chickpea, and pea protein padding.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ dry food products, Carnilove Adult Sterilised Salmon & Turkey scores above the dry food average.
