It contains 23 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 2 anti-nutrients including Peas and Potatoes (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 3 other sketchy ingredients, including Tomato Pomace and Ocean Fish Meal.

Warning Due to this being a grain-free food that contains legumes or potatoes this Chicken Soup recipe may be implicated in the FDA's ongoing investigation into diet-related Dilated Cardiomyopathy (or DCM), a potentially fatal heart condition.
