Here are the ingredients to the new Purina Beneful Healthy growth formula. I was wondering how EXACTLY you could tell if the food was bad or not? I mean what are some of the ingredients to look for in a dog food that is bad. This is always advertised as having real meat and vegetables (as well as grain and milk). So why do I look at the ingredients and go..."ok, where's the good stuff?" 
. What in this food's ingredients are bad and what are good. The people behind us feed there puppy this and her coat looks as good as my dogs and her teeth are good lookin too.
