Cornstarch is just a filler, a thickener for the food, with little nutritional value - a way to make the actual nutritional content lower yet keep the same volume. In other words, they can use less chicken and still fill the jar and get the same price. :rolleyes:
Also corn is a known allergen for many dogs.
Doesn't that just figure. hmmphQuote:

Yes definitely post the abnormals from the test. Always post those, then you have a record of it on here, (easy to find), and we get to dissect them. :)

Hi Vicki

That W/D is brutal for output! how does he like the baby food? Jenny eats Purina OM now. It is a diet food but she doesn't have as much waste. looking for an update. Judi
Not sure if used to be different but Gerber's meat and gravy baby food is also very simple -- gound meat, water, and cornstarch. Same as Beechnut.
Those are the only two brands readily available where I am - my cat is on baby food.
Cornstarch would definitely be related to creating the creamy consistency.

Scoop's been having some problems. I don't even know if I will be able to explain it. Hard to put some things into words. It is late. I will post tomorrow if I have time. Also I didn't forget about his blood test results. Just been having a hard time the last few days.
I'm sorry to see that Scoop has been having a hard time. hugs
Me, too! Please do check back with us as soon as you are able.
In the meantime, sending big healing hugs to you both...
