Yora Active Bar review

A weak dry food by the label. 46% declared meat content is respectable, and the label keeps too much vague. The breakdown below shows exactly where every point went.

Our analysis

Breaking the 37 down: the biggest single loss is ingredient quality, where it takes 23.2 of a possible 40. Its strongest showing is declared meat content at 14.2 of 15. On top of that, 16 points are deducted outright for red-flag ingredients - a penalty applied before anything else is counted, which is why the total lands where it does.

The label declares 46% meat, which is a real number, which already puts it ahead of the many that print none, and the ingredient list leans on vague groupings instead of naming what is actually in the bag.
