Good, check the flags
Scored October 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.
Added sugar
A sweetener with no nutritional job; it adds calories and nothing else.
Natural flavor
An undisclosed blend. Not harmful per se, but it hides what your pet is actually tasting.
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.
10 ingredients. 2 of them carry this product's 2 flags and are marked below. The other 7 raised no flag. 1 line isn't in our library yet, so we couldn't check it; it's marked Not checked.

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.

- Oct 16, 2026 Renamed from “Hill's Science Diet Grain Free Soft-Baked Naturals With Duck & Pumpkin” to “Hill's Science Diet Grain Free Soft-Baked Naturals with Duck & Pumpkin”. The score did not change and the web address did not change. We replaced the panel PawDiet transcribed with the ingredient list on Hill's own product page, and took the name from the same page.
- Sep 22, 2026 “Corn syrup” is now “Added sugar”. The score did not change. The panel lists cane molasses, not corn syrup.
