INGREDIENT
Basil
The leaf of the basil plant, used fresh or dried in small quantities.
Why it turns up in dog food
- Contains antioxidant polyphenols and aromatic oils. Used in small amounts for flavor and its plant compounds.
An ingredient on its own tells you very little.
What matters is how much of it there is and where it sits in the list. That is why we weigh
the top five rather than reacting to any single name further down.
