This has been a confused issue for a long time, because By Nature had an incorrect ingredient list on their website, so, in turn, all on-line retailers also have an incorrect ingredient list.
However, the LABELS have never had carrageenan listed. I have been in contact with By Nature over this for some time.
I am happy to report that the ingredient list on the website has been updated. I advised my CSR contact to inform the people in charge of such things that they should contact on-line retailers to change their information too, since so many people are now desperately looking for carrageenan free canned foods.
By Nature Organics does not contain carrageenan!
Sadly, it does contain menadione - bisulfate, but it is the last ingredient listed and I have had to make my peace with it, because I am determined to keep the carrageean out of the cats.
My cats when eating foods with carrageenan:
Queen Eva would get diarrhea
Mazy cat would not only regurgitate, but continue to vomit for several minutes after all food was expelled from her stomach.
Jennie, I thought, was not having trouble with it, so I have continued to feed her the remaining foods I have purchased, that have carrageenan, until they are used up. However, I feed those foods only once or twice a week now (once they are gone, I will not be replacing them), and now I am discovering the difference. When Jennie eats foods with carrageenan, she scoots her bottom. When she doesn't have any carrageenan, the scooting stops.
** My cats eat both canned and raw.
