The score, in context

Tripe Mix 75.2
Beef 68.2
Chicken 68.2

Three recipes across Excellent and Good. Typical wet food: Excellent.

The Tripe Mix pulls clear on its meat line, and the rich shared analysis keeps all three in good company for a tin.

What's in it

British and Irish farmed beef: tripe and tripe broth39%About as tempting as canned dinner gets for a dog off its food.
Beef liver3%Takes the beef to 42%.
British and Irish farmed chicken41.5%
Salmon oilNo percentage, and fish on the label.
Plant fibresRoughage, without saying which plant.
Vitamins and minerals
Chicory root, MOSA small prebiotic pairing: inulin from the root, MOS from yeast cell walls.

Every added nutrient carries a figure, from vitamin A at 1250 I.U. per kilo to zinc at 20mg; calcium gets no number of its own.

Named ingredients

British and Irish Farmed Beef 42% (Tripe & Tripe Broth 39%, Liver 3%), British and Irish Farmed Chicken 41.5%, Salmon Oil, Plant Fibres, Vitamins and Minerals, Chicory Root, MOS.

Against the range

Meat: 42% beef, 41.5% chicken; 65% combined on each of the other two.
Score: Excellent; Good on the other two.
Protein and processing: Good; Average on the other two.

The strongest meat line in the range, and the can the tripe lover in the family will vote for.

Every can pairs British and Irish farmed chicken with British and Irish farmed beef, with the tripe and its broth declared inside the beef figure. Each list stops after seven entries, none of them cereal, and all three share one analysis. The balance between the two meats is the only thing that separates the recipes.
