Online prepared Raw/cooked food diet - have you tried?

[Richard Zenk]

Have found raw food diet meals on the web - not sure I would do it right at home so found already prepared and sent frozen as well as raw food diet mixes that you add ground raw/cooked meat to. Any experience with any of these products/companies?

prepared raw food bought frozen: radcat and darwin

trying to find a way to do raw/cooked food without buying grinder and worrying about doing ir right

in the meantime, reviewed Dr. Lisa's food charts and ordered BFF food as seemed best balance of high protein and low carb and price - cheapest on chewy.com

then see this option: on webmd.com

The following recipe, from the MSPCA-Angell Animal Medical Center, is for a day’s feeding of an average 12-pound adult cat with no medical problems. It is endorsed by Remillard.

Mix together:

• Protein: cooked dark meat chicken, beef, pork, lamb, salmon, or tuna (83 grams or 3 wt-ounces)
• Carbohydrate: cooked white rice, oatmeal, barley, corn, peas, or pasta (50 grams or 1/3 cup)
• Fiber: cooked sweet potato, without skin (30 grams or 1/5 cup)
• Fat (optional): vegetable, safflower, olive oil or fish oil (1/4 teaspoon)
• Balance IT Feline: 2.7 grams or half a red scoop (in the container). This is a commercial blend of vitamins and minerals.

Cats are obligate carnivores; they do not need that much cooked white rice, oatmeal, barley, corn, peas, or pasta. Per Cat Info, you want the percent of calories from carbohydrates to be under 10%.
very rough calculations:
83 grams at 3.5calories per gram = 290.5 calories from protein (there's some fat in there too, at 8.5 calories per gram)
50 grams at 3.5 calories per gram = 175 calories from carbohydrates
and almost no other fat
Right away, I see almost 40% calories from carbohydrates on the rough calculations.
Don't do this.
