Drs. Foster and Smith's caned food

[Mandarin'sMom]

Mandarin has been OTJ since December 2014. His numbers have been great, especially since he had a much needed dental with 6 extractions. However, he is starting to not want to eat Friskies or Fancy Feast Classics anymore. One food that he does like is Drs. Foster and Smith’s canned food (Savory Salmon, Shrimp & Brown Rice – it’s a Pate style food). However, it’s not included in the food list and I am not sure how to read the ingredients. The website lists values on the “as fed basis” (which has only 4.56% carbs) and on the dry matter basis (which would be 16.84% carbs and thus clearly too high). Does anyone know which number I should look at?
