Blue Buffalo Nantucket Feast Cod 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 Peas, Yukon Gold Potatoes, 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.
