Seems the cat food industry is much like human food mfrs, loading everything with carbs. Cats aren't built for carbs from what I'm reading.

I'm looking at switching go the Weruvia, as I know it's really good food, somewhere around 1.4 g fat/can. Pricier than FF, but much less expensive than most on the list.
