Blue Buffalo Wilderness Large Breed Puppy Chicken Recipe Grain-Free 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 27 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 9 anti-nutrients including Peas, Pea Protein, and Tapioca Starch (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 2 other sketchy ingredients, including Dried Tomato Pomace, Natural Flavor and Vegetable Juice for color.
