AI ANALYSIS
What MiauMiau's AI actually sees
The protein source is listed as "Meat and animal by-products (30% beef/rabbit/chicken)", which is vague and includes by-products, lowering the ingredient quality score. However, the DMB protein of 50.5% is good for an obligate carnivore, and the estimated carbohydrate content is very low at 7.0%. The presence of cassia gum as a technological additive prevents a higher additive score.
According to MiauMiau's analysis of over 2,700+ wet food products, Smilla Sterilised Fresh Pouch Mix scores close to the wet food average.
