Fear mongering strikes again
I see some reviews that are anti-science and believing buzzwords put out by bias and unresearched resources.
cargeenan, is perfectly safe and absolutely does not have any relation to anything tumor causing. At absolute worst SOME cats may be sensitive to it, but not in a deadly way at all. If your cat has a very sensitive digestive system and easily gets an upset stomach then you'd want to test this out first- as you would with any cat food.
Menadione, is just a source of vitamin K implemented in seafood varieties of food to assure a complete nutritional balance. Because fishoils deplete Vitamin K. So cats on a very fishy diet (all of these cans are fish) will need a small supplement of K3.
In high doses it can kill anyone. Really high doses. You know what else can do that? WATER. too much of anything is bad, the amount in the can is definitely safe.
My 4/5 stars is because my cat loves it BUT it is on the gooey/jelly side so not easy to remove from the can and requires me to break it up in the dish. Aside that, a healthy can of food if your cat likes it. (All cats are different).
Please dont fall for pseudo-sciencyish buzzwords and rumors out there made by people with minimal credentials on the matter.
At worst your cat MIGHT be sensitive to this stuff- but because one person is lactose intolerant- doesn't make cheese evil all together now does it?
Edit: unfortunately due to all the ignorance about these ingredients in late 2018 they changed the recipe in response to the anti-science complaints. Still safe for your cat but far more cats dont seem to like it now.
Good job anti science community. Ruining everything like usual.
