Also, they're perfectly sized.
Hehe, that's what I did when I was feeding my girl Orijen 6-fish as the main course and gave her NB's LID Duck & Potato small bites as the "treat" and she loved it then. But as I started being extremely generous in her "treat" portion and intake, she probably caught on. Eventually, I just gave it to her as part of her free-fed kibble while the Orijen (she doesn't really like, but will eat a bit of) is hand-fed during playtime with her daddy. She prefers the NB the rest of the time, of course. And now she won't be fooled by the NB as a "treat" . I did it like that originally to ensure that she ate enough of a proper meal each day. I tried to keep the NB duck & potato as a treat by getting her another flavour regular bite of NB to mix in with Orijen. She did not like the NB Vegetarian formula at all.

Since she doesn't eat blueberries, bananas, carrots, any vegetables I've tried so far, straight up, I like getting her treats with blueberries mixed/processed in as that's the only way she'd take it.
