Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care Beef & Vegetable Stew Canned Dog Food is hot extruded (which means it's processed under extreme heat and pressure) and made with feed grade ingredients, which are unfit for human consumption. It contains 33 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 2 anti-nutrients including Green Peas and Soybean Oil (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 8 other sketchy ingredients, including Brewers Dried Yeast and Guar Gum. Many consider this food to be inconvenient, because it requires clean-up.
