I've already done extensive time-consuming research so I can say whatever needs saying. I doubt your searching is or will ever be as focused,
And you did that research to establish to your own satisfaction that the information is accurate. Surely you can understand how others would want to do the same?I've already done extensive time-consuming research so I can say whatever needs saying.

I completely agree. Fortunately no one in this thread has done that. What there has been is multiple opinions expressed that don't always agree. That is the nature of a forum such as this. When someone prefers to not have their opinions challenged or contradicted a better outlet is a blog.There is a difference in finding new info and trying to prove it wrong to make a preconceived point as well as making light of other's researching before even starting ones own.
Too bad they have in ALL these - at least one gum and sometimes three different ones - plus one has "broth" of unknown recipe ingredients too. Better than some but I'll pass.
Have a look at at Weruva TRULUXE products. Non-grain, non-gluten and non carrageenan.
Read this y'all note the info on guar gum, etc. http://agriculturesociety.com/tag/neurotoxin/ The weruva label is not only misleading stating 'no gluten' it is an outright lie. Typical pet food company I'm afraid.

I haven't looked at the others yet but the first cat food I looked for was natures variety. I looked at the ingredient list. We are saying not to feed our cats food with carrageenan. CARRAGEENAN COMES FROM SEAWEED. are the company's getting trickier???? Natures Variety does not list carrageenan as an ingredient. Wonderful...right? But it lists dried kelp farther down the list. DRIED KELP IS SEAWEED. SEAWEED HAS CARRAGEENAN IN IT. WHICH MEANS NATURES VARIETY HAS CARRAGEENAN IN IT DISGUISED AS DRIED KELP!! Does anyone else have a problem with this deceitfulness????!!Carrageenan-free canned foods:

These likely all have guar gum in them though (haven't checked). Are you sure it's the carrageenan and/or guar gum that's the problem and not some other common ingredient? Either way, AC's recommendation to go raw would be the best option.
Kelp is a brown seaweed. Carrageenan is derived from red seaweeds, and is highly processed/concentrated in comparison.DRIED KELP IS SEAWEED. SEAWEED HAS CARRAGEENAN IN IT. WHICH MEANS NATURES VARIETY HAS CARRAGEENAN IN IT DISGUISED AS DRIED KELP!!

Yep, that's the least of their problems. I would NEVER trust Blue Buffalo or any other Purina company. If you don't know about the fiasco surrounding Purina (They're BB's parent company), please google it.
Hi there,
I know I am late in the game to this discussion - having just found it today - but on the blue buffalo site, all their products seem to have either carrageenan or guar gum.
