Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula Small Breed Adult Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe Dry Dog Food is hot extruded (which means it's processed under extreme heat and pressure) and made with feed grade ingredients, which are unfit for human consumption. It contains 30 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 8 anti-nutrients including Pea Starch, Peas, and Pea Protein (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 4 other sketchy ingredients, including Garlic and Vegetable Juice For Color.
