Save it to your pantry and the pantry page flags it if it turns up in an FDA recall we import.
It adds up, line by line.
Every product starts at 96. Flags, the brand's transparency grade and any recall linked to this product take points away. Nothing else moves the number, and no brand can pay to move it.

Good, check the flags
Scored September 2026 · checkthepanel.com
2 flagged ingredients.
Avoid first. Each flag costs points in the score above; where a flag has an entry behind it, it links to the evidence.
Natural flavor
An undisclosed blend. Not harmful per se, but it hides what your pet is actually tasting.
Added color
Color added for the buyer's eye, not a synthetic dye; your pet does not care what color it is.
Every ingredient, top to bottom.
Listed by weight, so the first few lines are most of the food. Tap any line to see what it is and why it's there.
40 ingredients. 2 of them carry this product's 2 flags and are marked below. The other 38 raised no flag.

Third-party lab findings for things that never appear on an ingredient label. This is separate from the score above and does not change it.
We haven't found published third-party lab results (PFAS, heavy metals, phthalates) for this product. That is not a clean bill of health, just an absence of data.

This page was corrected 2 times.
- Sep 22, 2026 “Artificial colors (Red 40, Yellow 5, and friends)” is now “Added color”. The score did not change. The panel lists caramel color, not a synthetic dye such as Red 40.
- Sep 21, 2026 Panel Score 92 → 88: added a caution for Artificial colors (Red 40, Yellow 5, and friends). The printed panel lists it and our record was not carrying the flag.
