Exactly! They wouldn't sell it if they didn't make a profit. Making a profit is not a sin. Unless you're selling a $2 epi-pen for $600 but that's a completely different problem.
Yes, the AAFCO compliant statement is usually buried in the ingredient list area or another area where you'll find the term "complete and balanced" as well.
Lots of good foods mentioned in this thread, I didn't see any bad ones listed(could have missed something though). We, the dogs, even enjoyed Beyond for a while. We only stopped using it, I think, because the ingredients were the cheaper fillers but the food was at a premium per pound price. My memory could be off there, you can look it up yourself.
Anyhoo, given that we accepted we would pay the higher price for food, IDK $4 a pound or something, the search centered on getting the best food for that price point. Lots of grain frees and unusually attractive ingredients lists at the $4 a pound price point... so why get a corn or other cheaper filler feed? And yes, there is that one corn filler feed that does so much research, it's good too I suppose.
Our biggest issue wading through the various food choices was the rug rats enjoying the feed for the long term. It seems we are destined to rotate between several different feeds based on their whimsical tastes and that's fine.
