Pork Plasma
Our ingredient score: 3 / 5 · Named animal protein · How We Score
Pork plasma is the liquid part of pork blood, separated from the blood cells and dried into a powder. It is high in protein and helps hold kibble together. The label names the animal, so the source is known. It is a by-product of meat processing rather than meat itself, which is why our score puts it below named meats and meals.
