Hi Katie, I agree wholeheartedly with you! I also am older and was a vet tech when science diet was the only food that could be recommended and only vets sold it. The specialized formulas saved many lives by controling weight, etc. When my kitty had a liver problem (almost 20 yrs ago) he was put on one of the foods and lived many years because of it! I do not enjoy bashing on lists and agree that everyone has their own opinion. I am very glad you brought it up.
