Salt content, at least from my vet's perspective, is the leading problem in regular store bought cat food.

But I cant tell, because theres no nutritional information written on the can or bag. Just crude fat, moisture, protein, etc.

Salt is listed in the ingredients, but it's in everything. You do need some in your diet. Not a lot, this isn't McDonald's, but some. But you'll never know how much is actually in your pets' food.

I wish they had proper nutritional information...
