Omni Pumpkin & Lentil Hot Pot review

Name: Omni Pumpkin & Lentil Hot Pot
Brand: Omni

45.9/100Average

WetAdult

The vegetable forward can in Omni's wet range, and the best of the three on our scoring. Pumpkin at 15% heads the list, with red lentils and pea protein behind it. Nothing in it comes from an animal, by design.

Adults of any size, from toy breeds to giants
Sluggish digestion, where chicory and lentils give the gut something to work on

Worth watching

The score, in context

Omni Pumpkin & Lentil Hot Pot 45.9

All one Average. Typical wet food: Excellent.

Our scoring leans hard on named animal ingredients, so a recipe with none sits low, and on its own terms this is the strongest of the three Omni wet cans.
