    Just out of curiosity Dr Lisa's food chart from 2017 says the Fancy feast classic chicken Pate says it has 3% carbs. I contacted Purina and they said it's 0.9 % carbs ,as fed
    It is 3.1 % carbs, thanks to FurBabiesMama she explained it to me.

    I got the info from Purina myself in the past, and what they provided matched up with the food chart. You have to be very specific in what you ask for. You want the % of calories from carbs which is known as the ME profile.

    Here was their response to me:
    The actual percentage of calories that come from protein, fat and carbohydrates for the (metabolizable energy (ME) profile) in the Fancy Feast Classic Chicken is as follows.

    Fancy Feast Classic Chicken
    M.E. from Protein 40%
    M.E. from Fat 56.9%
    M.E. from Carbohydrates 3.1%

    Phosphorus 429 mg/100kcal

    Forget what I said about the carbs, what FurBabiesMama posted is correct
