Poultry Broth
What is Poultry Broth?
Poultry broth is a liquid made by simmering poultry meat, bones, and sometimes vegetables, in water. This process extracts flavors and nutrients, resulting in a flavorful, savory liquid commonly used as a base for soups and sauces.
In cat food, poultry broth is used to enhance palatability and provide moisture. There is no substantial evidence indicating health risks associated with its use in pet foods when consumed as part of a balanced diet.
On labels, poultry broth ensures that the food contains animal-derived ingredients, which is relevant for dietary preferences or requirements.
Commonly found in: cat food, soup, stew, sauce, gravy
