The Key to Palatability, Quality, and Cost Efficiency In the realm of dry pet food manufacturing, the term “moisture content” often conjures concerns about mold and product quality. However, its significance extends far beyond these parameters. Our comprehensive 3-part white paper series go through the pivotal role moisture plays in...
Fat Type and Amount: Its Impact on Palatability
AFB International’s recent research on preferences in kibble fat sources and concentrations can be found in the recent white paper titled “Fat Type and Amount: Its Impact on Palatability”. Led by AFB scientist Greg Hibbard, these findings were also presented in a poster session at Petfood Forum. “We wanted to understand the correlation between palatability and various topical fat sources and their applied amounts so we can advise pet food manufacturers on potential adjustments to make their dog and cat foods more palatable,” said Hibbard.
