AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
The first ingredient is fresh chicken, but potato meal and starch immediately follow, pushing it toward a plant-heavy formula. Protein likely falls around or below AAFCO minimums when moisture-corrected, and unnamed 'animal fat' plus general 'antioxidants' raise concerns about transparency and optimal carnivore nutrition.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 5,000+ dry food products, Sanabelle No Grain scores close to the dry food average.
