Nutro Wholesome Essentials Healthy Weight Large Breed Adult Farm Raised Chicken 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 18 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 2 anti-nutrients including Split Peas and Dried Sweet Potato (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 4 other sketchy ingredients, including Natural Flavor and Dried Plain Beet Pulp.
