I think you're confused because a lot of the food talk on YT is opinion only.
The grading chart...if only picking a food was that easy...
Dog Food Analysis, maybe slightly better, but still it has a lot of flaws. It's a good place to see ingredient lists all in one place (although it's not updated I don't think), but what about manufacturing practices, where the ingredients come from, etc.? And just because a food gets six stars does not mean a thing. Most of the higher protein foods are rated higher, so we automatically know that the makers of the site like high protein best. Well, I'd like to see some scientific proof that high protein is always the best for all healthy dogs... The makers of some of the five and six star foods also use ethoxyquin. Well, they don't use it themselves; their suppliers do. And foods are automatically "bad" because they contain corn. I really can't agree there. If the preference is grain free, then go for it; but is feeding corn that much worse than other grains???
It is my personal preference to stay away from Iams/Euk because of the animal cruelty videos online. It's also my personal preference to stay away from by products, unnamed meats and fats, ethoxyquin, BHA/BHT, menadione, etc.
