| Here's the ingredients for the Beneful puppy formula. It's mostly corn and even the the second ingredient is chicken by products which include the beaks, feet, etc. (undigestible protein) and then further down it lists chicken which means in the wet form to make it heavier so they can put it up further on the list since they have to be listed by weight. The dyes or colors as they list it have no nutritional value whatsoever.
