AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
The New Recipe opens with concentrated lamb protein (a rendered meat meal) followed immediately by peas, a high-fiber legume, while fresh lamb has slipped to third position, signaling protein padding. Although moisture is unlisted and exact DMB values are thus unknown, estimated protein on a dry matter basis lands in the marginal 26–34% range for obligate carnivores, and the carb-heavy filler load (peas, potatoes, pea protein, pea flour) pushes estimated DMB carbohydrates well above 30%.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ dry food products, Purizon Original Lamb with Fish - Grain-Free - New Recipe! scores below the dry food average.
