ANF 6Free Plus Salmon & Whitefish

Editor ingredient insight

ANF 6Free Plus Salmon & Whitefish uses a mixed salmon, whitefish, krill, and chicken animal-protein base, followed by rice, chicken fat, hydrolyzed chicken, peas, chickpeas, lentils, and sweet potato. At 27% protein, 10% fat, and 3,600 kcal/kg, I would use it as a moderate fish-flavored daily food, not as a chicken-free salmon elimination diet.

Logic-based verdict

This food is worth considering when budget per kilogram matters alongside baseline nutrition.

Protein source

Ingredient guide

Whole plant protein source observed early

Animal protein

Animal Protein (#1), Hydrolyzed Chicken Meal (Natural Flavor) (#4)

Plant protein

Peas (#7), Chickpeas (#8), Lentils (#9)

The protein number may include influence from whole plant ingredients.

This is not treated like processed protein boosting, but it is worth checking.

This is not a premium ingredient story first, but the baseline nutrition is still comparable and the price per kilogram stays easier on budget.

Nutritional strengths

  • Crude protein does not drop into a clearly low band.
  • Price per kilogram stays low enough that this can still be a conservative value pick.
  • Nutrient disclosure is broad enough to compare real numbers directly.

What still needs work

  • When multiple animal proteins are combined into one ingredient line, the lead slot can look meat-forward even though each rendered meal may not individually outrank the following rice or grain ingredients.
  • Whole plant protein sources can contribute to crude protein, so the animal-protein share still needs a closer read.
  • Calcium:Phosphorus Ratio sits near the upper end of the preferred range, so a more conservative read makes sense.

Brand background availableRecall research scope limited

Founded in 1955 in the United States/South Korea. The English-language public recall sources checked here are not enough to make a confident recall call for this brand.

Ingredient analysis

The top ingredients are still usable, but this is the part to inspect more carefully before calling the recipe a clear strength.

Ingredient Analysis Comments

  • •Animal Protein combines multiple animal protein ingredients into one top-ingredient line. The named sources are visible, but their individual weight order versus the following rice or grain ingredients is not disclosed. It reads as an upper-tier protein source.
  • •Rice is a refined carbohydrate source. It usually reads as a starch and energy source rather than a protein driver. It reads as an mid-tier carb source.
  • •정제닭기름 is a named fresh meat ingredient. The animal source is clearly identified. It reads as an top-tier protein source.

Why did the base review land here?

Ingredient qualityNutrient disclosure levelManufacturing & trust

This review score combines ingredient composition, nutrient disclosure, manufacturing trust, and core nutrient caution signals.

Nutrient disclosure

Partial disclosure

Core guaranteed analysis is usable, but deeper rows still need a more cautious read.

Safety verification

1 warnings

There is no immediate hard stop here, but a few caution rows are still worth checking.

Public data trust (ETF)

D tier

Only basic guaranteed analysis is visible, so deeper nutrition comparison stays hard to trust.

Final word

There is enough here to keep the food in comparison, but not enough to stop comparing yet.
