every food here publishes protein and fat
Ordered by dry-matter protein, highest first; formulas whose manufacturer publishes no figure come last. Bars span the full 203-formula range rather than this page's, so a bar here means what the same bar means anywhere on the site. Hatched cells are values the manufacturer does not publish.
