Winalot Monday Meaty Casseroles review

Name: Winalot Monday Meaty Casseroles
Brand: Winalot

45.7/100Average

WetAdult

An Average casserole in three recipes, each naming its bird and showing its vegetable working. Behind the bird is a meat and animal derivatives entry wide enough to take in any land animal. Once the water is out, an estimated 34.9% is carbohydrate, a fair amount of cereal for a casserole.

Our view

Likely to suit

Dogs that eat little and often, from 85g servings opened fresh
Smaller dogs, with no half tin left in the fridge
Dogs tired of chicken. Turkey and duck each get a recipe
Dogs that need water in their food, at 81.5% moisture
Owners who want the vegetables quantified

Worth watching

None of the three is single-species beyond the named bird
Unnamed cereals and various sugars on all three
Carbohydrate at 34.9% of dry matter against 15.8% typical
Light at 77 kcal per 100g, so a day's portion is large
