I would call the company and ask what the "as fed" values are. Especially for the carb content. All of those veggies are a bit worrisome to me, but it could be that they are only a tiny percentage of the food. You might also ask about the as fed values of the fat content because fat needs to be kept lowish for pancreatic patients.
