This rating system allows for lower protein foods to be graded well.
While I do agree, it's kind of lame how on dogfoodadvisor rates all the 6 star foods as these super high protein foods, I am not really big on this rating systems either. Nutro, for example, grades a high B... Nutro is terrible, imo, and they have had a TON of quality control issues and recalls!! So it's misleading to someone thinking "Oh, I am feeding a great food!!" I think where a food is manufactured, how it is made, where the ingredients are sourced from, etc, should come into play while rating any food.
