Wet food is much better b/c of the moisture content is greater than dry food. Also wet food is 'less' processed vs. dry food.

And there is a formula (I don't know it) - but dry food MUST be changed into a wet food content formula to get the 'actual' protein content.

So something that is 16% protein on a dry matter - is WAY high in a wet matter - and that's the % you have to look at.

I am sure this makes no sense, sorry...but hopefully someone else can say it better
