"Malcolm and Katja love it. I did choose the flavors that do NOT contain carageenan. NB is a good all round non grain food and I'll buy again, but as with all things a person has to read labels for they want or don't want"

— Ann

"The large pieces were totally unappealing to my multiple cats. Even the feral cats left the chunks, but loved the gravy. A waste of money."

Bottom Line

A good option for cat owners looking for a grain-free wet food, but be prepared for potential issues with piece size. Best bought on sale.
