Keeping cereal out, since quinoa is a seed and no wheat, maize or rice appears

Worth watching

Refined pea and potato protein, which a dog uses less efficiently than meat
Carbohydrate at an estimated 34.6% of dry matter, against 15.8% for typical adult wet food
Large daily portions for a bigger dog at 91 kcal per 100g

The score, in context

Omni Sweet Potato & Quinoa Loaf 43.9

All one Average. Typical wet food: Excellent.

Our scoring leans on named animal ingredients, so an all-plant can starts well behind on that measure; the gap is one of kind, and the cooking is not in question.

What's in it

Dried peas6% (18% before drying)Fibre and some protein, and a big share of the can.
Sweet potatoes15%More fibre and vitamin A than common potato, gentler on blood sugar.
Lupin beans powder5%
Quinoa4.5%A seed, not a cereal, with a full amino acid profile.
Pea protein, potato proteinRefined proteins that lift the analysis to 32.7% of dry matter; a dog absorbs less of it than the figure suggests.
Minerals
Rapeseed oil, chia seeds, coconut oil1% eachLight fat at 13.5% of dry matter; chia brings plant omega 3.
Dried brewer's yeast, dried seaweed1%, 0.1%B vitamins and iodine.
Dried chicory0.03%

Vitamins A, D3 and E, taurine, methionine and L-carnitine, and the usual trace elements as sulphates, iodate and selenite.

Nothing of animal origin on the label, so the added taurine and L-carnitine are doing real work.

Named ingredients

Dried Peas (6% equivalent to 18% Peas), Sweet Potatoes (15%), Lupin Beans Powder (5%), Quinoa (4.5%), Pea Protein, Minerals, Potato Protein, Rapeseed Oil (1%), Chia Seeds (1%), Coconut Oil (1%), Dried Brewer's Yeast (1%), Dried Seaweed (Ascophyllum Nodosum) (0.1%), Dried Chicory (a natural source of FOS and Inulin) (0.03%)

Against the range

One plant-based can with nothing of animal origin on the label. Peas, sweet potato and quinoa are the whole foods; pea protein, potato protein and lupin powder do a share of the protein work. The added panel includes taurine, methionine and L-carnitine, the entries a meatless bowl needs.
