INGREDIENT
Water
Plain water, used to make the recipe mixable and, in wet food, to fill the can.
Why it turns up in dog food
- Carries no nutrients itself, but it is what allows wet food to be canned and what keeps a dog hydrated. In dry food it is largely driven off during cooking.
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.
