Our analysis

Breaking the 78 down: the biggest single loss is nutritional balance, where it takes 1.9 of a possible 10. Its strongest showing is declared meat content at 15 of 15.

The label declares 75% meat, which is unusually specific - most brands never print a figure at all, and the ingredient list names things individually rather than hiding them in catch-all categories.

Ingredients

Straight from the label, grouped by role - every ingredient is coloured by our published classification and links to its full page.
