Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Gastrointestinal Low Fat LF 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 22 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has no antinutrients like peas, lentils, or potatoes (which is great, because these ingredients may interfere the absorption of vital nutrients), and it has 8 other sketchy ingredients, including Natural Flavors and Gelatin By-Products. Many consider this food to be inconvenient, because it requires clean-up.
