Brit Fresh Chicken with Sweet Potato review

Name: Brit Fresh Chicken with Sweet Potato
Brand: Brit

78.5/100Excellent

WetPuppyAdult

A wet food that reads more like a shopping list than a legal declaration. Chicken and turkey make up more than three quarters of the pack, and every line, down to the 0.2% of algae and black currant, has a figure. Almost nothing is left to your imagination.

Our view

Likely to suit

Owners who want the whole recipe itemised
Poultry-loving dogs
Any age, as the one recipe covers puppy to old age
Skin and coat, with salmon oil at 1% and linseed at 0.5% bringing omega 3
Grain-avoiding homes. Buckwheat is a seed, and sweet potatoes carry the starch

Worth watching

Chicken, turkey and salmon oil together, so no use for a poultry or fish elimination diet
Minerals as a single 2% entry, the one vague line
Estimated carbohydrate at 29.2% of dry matter against 15.8% for typical wet food
