BRIT PATÉ & MEAT - CHICKEN review

Name: BRIT PATÉ & MEAT - CHICKEN
Brand: Brit

72.7/100Excellent

WetPuppyAdult

Paté and meat pieces in the same tin, built from a five-line list you can read at a glance. Chicken at 48% and beef at 22% are both declared with their organs. Nothing elaborate, and nothing hidden.

Our view

Likely to suit

Fussy eaters who leave a smooth loaf but keep going when there is something to chew
Owners who want the organ meat named on both animals
A mixed-age pack, since one recipe runs from puppy to old age
Dogs that find a fat-rich tin too much; fat converts to a moderate 22.7% of dry matter
Measured portions, at 96 kcal per 100g

Worth watching

Chicken, beef and salmon oil in one tin, too many for an elimination diet
Calcium converts to a lean 0.45% of dry matter on a label that includes puppies, so a growing large-breed pup wants a vet's view first
Ash at 15.9% of dry matter is high for a wet food

The score, in context

BRIT PATÉ & MEAT - CHICKEN 72.7

All one Excellent. Typical wet food: Excellent.

A short, fully named list earns the result; the high ash and lean calcium are what stop it climbing further.

What's in it

Chicken (meat and organs)48%The most digestible of the everyday meats, organs declared.
Beef (meat and organs)22%The richer flavour, and often what revives a dog bored of poultry.
Pea starch3%Holds the paté together, and drives most of the carbohydrate.
Pea fibre1%
Salmon oil0.5%A little omega 3, named outright.

Vitamins D3 and E, biotin, and zinc, iron, manganese, iodine and copper, each with its dose; carob gum sets the texture.

Calcium is 0.45% of dry matter, lean for a food that names puppies; a large-breed pup needs it in a tighter window.

Named ingredients

48% chicken (meat & organs), 22% beef (meat & organs), 3% pea starch, 1% pea fiber, 0.5% salmon oil.

Against the range

One tin, five ingredients: chicken and beef, both declared as meat and organs, two pea entries for binding and a named salmon oil. Every added vitamin and trace element is printed with its dose.
