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.

Scored October 2026 · checkthepanel.com
4 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.
BHA (preservative)
A preservative flagged as a possible carcinogen in animal studies; many brands have dropped it.
Propylene glycol
A humectant banned in cat food for red-blood-cell effects; purely textural in dog products.
Natural flavor
An undisclosed blend. Not harmful per se, but it hides what your pet is actually tasting.
Artificial colors
Dyes that exist to sell the food to you; 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.
