All I am seeing is a page full of different foods.

Anyway, the nutrients have to add up to 100%. You can only get this from vitamins/minerals, fiber, protein, and fat.

When given a guaranteed analysis, you can convert everything to dry matter and find approx % of carbs.

V/m are approx 5-10% of food.

So if you look at the conversion Brit did below, this food is 73%, 15% fat, about 4% fiber (don't want to calculate), 5-10% v/m. So we are at about 100%. That tells me this food is very low in carbs.

The 100% has to come from somewhere. If it is not coming from carbs, it is coming from fat and protein.
