Suits

Safety: recall history

Evidence: what the brand claims, and what supports it

The claims made on the pack and product page, checked against the declared label. We record claims as stated; "consistent" means our stored label data supports the claim, "contradicted" means it conflicts with it. Functional claims are recorded but never scored.

100/100 · strong — 3 checkable claims: 3 consistent, 0 contradicted.

Consistent with the label

  • "Complete feed for adult dogs" — supported by the declared complete and balanced data.
  • "Mono protein (one animal protein source)" — supported by the declared single protein data.
  • "With insects as an animal-based monoprotein and seldom used protein source" — supported by the declared single protein data.

5 further claims on file that we cannot check against the label.

Strong: at least three checkable claims, all consistent with the declared label, and no compliance cap.
