Question 1

Is this an outdated label I thought they no longer contained guar gum and sodium tropolyphosphate?

Accepted Answer

Hi Nicola, yes this is an outdated label and although they no longer add the sodium tropolyphosphate, the NEW formula contains tetrasodium pyrophosphate, which is a toxic chemical that is used as a flavoring , however, this is also used in cleansers and rust removal. I also found it on a hazard list. I even contacted someone at ZiwiPeak and after he looked into it himself, he was baffled as to why it was being used. I just wanted to make other ZiwiPeak consumers aware of this since we think we are paying extra to have the best food for our pets, however, one single ingredient can negate this.

Question 2

The label, name and consistency/color of the food changed in March 2017.  Has anyone had issues?

Accepted Answer

Hi there! Depending on where you buy it, you may be offered the older formula or this new one. The new formula for the rabbit & lamb has chickpeas and my cats LOVE it. The traditional fat-on-the-top is gone but there is a "gravy" like juice which my cats go nuts over. I wasn't excited about chickpeas, but my boys are loving it. We've been using ZP for several years, 1 cat eats primarily this and the other cat will eat it but prefers Dr. Harvey's Oracle- that was until this new formula came, now both boys are going nuts over it! No health issues noted so far. We love ZP!!

Question 3

They say no unnecessary carbohydrates but have added chick peas! How healthy is that?

Accepted Answer

I talked to Ziwi Peak about this because I was also concerned.  It's only a small amount of chick pea to thicken it, it is not being used as a primary protein in the food.  My cat can't tolerate any carbs much, and she is 16 years old and does wonderfully on this brand, especially the chicken.
