Nature's Recipe Original Grain-Free Variety Pack Canned 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 21 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 3 anti-nutrients including Sweet Potatoes, Green Beans, and Tapioca Starch (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 2 other sketchy ingredients, including Canola Oil (Preserved with Mixed Tocopherols) and Natural Flavor. Many consider this food to be inconvenient, because it requires clean-up.
