Overview of Whiskas with Poultry in Sauce and Netto Brand Discount Attica Crunch Menu with Beef
In the realm of wet cat food, Whiskas has emerged as the standout choice, garnering an impressive overall rating of ‘very good’ (1.2). The product, Whiskas with Poultry in Sauce, excels particularly in ingredient quality and composition, achieving a top score of 1.0. This nutritious option ensures that indoor cats receive all the vital vitamins and nutrients they need. Moreover, it meets the high standards set by consumer advocates in feeding recommendations, also rated at 1.0. In the area of ‘Declaration and Advertising Claims’, it secured a ‘good’ rating (1.8). Notably, the sugar content in Whiskas remains low, similar to other brands, with levels below 2 grams. The cost of this premium food is approximately 3.96 euros per kilogram.
On the other hand, the economical choice from Lidl has also made a mark by providing quality nutrition without breaking the bank. The Lidl Coshida Delicacies with Beef & Liver in Sauce achieved a commendable overall rating of ‘very good’ (1.3), placing it in the second position alongside Edeka’s good&cheap chicken delicacies and Rewe’s ZooRoyal salmon pâté with yogurt jelly. Priced at just 1.33 euros per kilogram, it stands out as an excellent budget-friendly option.
In the dry food segment, another budget-friendly product shines: the Netto Brand Discount Attica Crunch Menu with Beef claims the top spot with an overall rating of ‘very good’ (1.3). This dry food ensures that your cat receives all the essential vitamins and nutrients (grade 1.0) for a healthy life, and the feeding recommendations are also rated as appropriate (grade 1.0). However, a minor drawback is the non-resealable packaging, which led to some deductions in points from consumer advocates. To maintain freshness, it’s recommended to transfer the food to an airtight container. At a mere 1.15 euros per kilogram, Netto’s dry food not only wins the test but also offers outstanding value for money.
