No point buying the more expensive Merrick! No carageenan in this, I will switch when I retire!

It's nice, isn't it? Robin started out liking the duck, but once he tasted the beef pate, nothing else will do. Great price too!! Can't wait to buy a couple cases at Chewy's! (Shhh I don't want to jinx things!!!)

You are lucky! My local Petco doesn't have Whole Earth Farm Duck. They only seem to have turkey, chicken, tuna and salmon. One cat started out liking Merrick's limited ingredient duck that I bought there. But I ordered a case from Chewy.com and none of my 3 will eat it! I keep checking my Petco for the WEF duck formula. They still might not like it though if I find it. They didn't really like the WEF formulas I did buy there as much as they liked the limited ingredient or purrfect bistros versions. I wish WEF was a better hit because that would save quite a bit of money.
Mine like the WEF duck too. They like duck in general. I need to contact Merrick today. I bought some Cowboy Cookout and this is what I found yesterday when feeding them breakfast. I'm not happy. It looks oily and gross. I had to give them something else.

Maybe we can thank Purina for the change???? [emoji]128575[/emoji][emoji]128576[/emoji]
It's not right. It's supposed to be chunks with a small amount of gravy. This was gravy with a very small amount of chunks swimming in it. The gravy doesn't look right either. It's usually not shiny like that.
When I started checking the ingredients list on Whole Earth Farms (WEF) I found chicken included in all except turkey including beef. So with WEF you feeling chicken every day. I think it's good on a rotation, but wouldn't feed it exclusively for fear of an allergy developing.
Yuck! It does seem like Merrick's having some "issues" with consistency and quality. Their LID cans are sometimes underfilled and the moisture content in the food seems to vary quite a bit. The cats absolutely love it but I'm starting to have my doubts about the company!

A year later and my cats still love WEF duck and beef. Merrick rabbit pate and Soulistic chicken pate & shreds dinner in Gelee. Hooray I rotate the 4, makes life simple not trying stuff all the time, they are 9 and 7 and very healthy, no vomiting
