Has anyone been feeding either Infinia Exclusive Grain Free or Taste of the Wild? I'd be interested in your feedback on the quality of these brands. I am looking to switch to a little bit lower price grain free food, I am currently feeding Arcana Pacifica. These two brands seem like they would be a good substitute. I wanted to be certain they did not use Ethoxyquin and was not sure I wanted to feed a food with added salt so I contacted PMI Nutrition (maker of Infinia) and got this response back.
"The Salmon & Sweet Potato Recipe contains 0.31% sodium. Our salmon can come from multiple sources, and can be farm raised or from the Atlantic ocean. Regarding preservation, all of our Infinia diets are naturally preserved with mixed tocopherols (a source of vitamin E) at manufacturing. Prior to receiving fish ingredients, our supplier preserves it with a natural antioxidant called Naturox.... Naturox is a natural preservative that does not contain ethoxyquin. We do not use fish meal preserved with ethoxyquin in our Infinia diets."

What do you think of 0.31% sodium, is this low enough that it will not be a problem?

TOTW lists on their web site that all fish sources are Ethoxyquin free, but TOTW is owned by Diamond Company and I know that the company has been involved in recalls in the past.

I think that PMI Nutrition that is an offshoot of Purina Mills that was bought by another company. I do not think it is part of Purina . Does anyone know if this is correct?

If anyone has an opinion on either of these foods, I'd appreciate the feedback. Thanks.
