Plus, I've never heard of corn, wheat and rice having protein in them so I don't see where they would bump up the protein level...
I don't think any companies actually list the ratio (I've never seen it), so instead of trying to find a good ratio it's best to avoid those ingredients all together.
By high-end I meant good quality. Maybe those foods are more expensive than most but they are low quality foods.
