I will give you, your problem with the claim(the claim is to reduce risk, not prevent it all together so I see no false claim), but specifically what is wrong with the ingredients that make you claim it's a "terrible food"? Bad marketing in your eyes, does not automatically a bad product make.

Actually any healthy diet free of GMOs, hormones, additives, and chemicals can seriously be considered a cancer reducing diet. For pets or humans. Cancer is a bit of a crap shoot, animals/humans can genetically pre-disposed to cancer no matter what they do. But obviously if you take some precautions you may better your odds a bit. My concern is overall good nutrition, at reasonable price. Car seat belts can be claimed as preventing auto accident deaths, however it's not 100%. Does not make seat belts terrible or the claim wrong. So I have no issue with the fact that a quality list of ingredients in a feed is claimed to be able to reduce the risk of cancer.

Most all pet foods make claims they most likely should not. I have seen many commercial feeds made claims, such as natural, best you can get. Then if you do the homework the ingredients list is a bunch of scraps left over from processing of human foods. I look at ingredients lists and not claims.
That food has been made at 3 places over the past few years. You should do your homework to see why.
