Questions & Answers

57 Customer Questions


Does any of The Honest Kitchen base mixes come in sample sizes? My elderly boy is so, so fussy and though he's only been with us a year, I've spent a small fortune on foods he will not eat.


How many lbs of meat (total) do you need to add to make the whole box (7lb box of base).? I’d like to buy all the meat I need at once, prepare all the food & freeze most of it. Thank you.

Answer by ChewyJan 01, 2020
Overall, you will need approximately 5 pounds of meat for the 3 pound bag of base mix, and approximately 11 1/2 pounds of meat for the 7 pound bag of base mix.

When it says “cups of meat to add per day” is that 8 ounces of raw or cooked meat? Since raw meat cooks down this could make a big difference.

Answer by ChewyApr 09, 2018
The measurement is based on raw, uncooked meat.

Hello, someone asked if there were pesticides used to grow any ingredients and the answer was vague- the answer was that there are no chemicals in the product, which could mean chemicals as ingredients. Can you please clarify that no pesticides were used to grow any of these ingredients? Thank you!!

Answer by ChewySep 26, 2019
The Honest Kitchen raw ingredient suppliers use very minimal pesticides, and only when deemed necessary to protect a crop against pests. If pesticides are used, the produce is tested for residues in accordance with normal food standards for humans.

I was fully preparing my dogs food! Every week I’d meal prep all the separate ingredients and mix it all up and that would take so long. Then I’d have to do it all over again and that’s on top of meal preparation for the family! With honest kitchen meal mix, this relives hours of my time! I literally just have to cook meat and add this meal mix to it and DONE! Less than 30 mins to prepare weeks of food!

Toffie’s a rescue I adopted. She needed high quality food to make up for her “street days” type of foraging. She’s been on Honest Kitchen food for 2 years and her fur has totally been transformed. I add the “Base” to human grade fresh protein ( ground turkey, ground beef & salmon, which I cycle). It’s made a big difference in her overall health!

Easy to prepare and my dogs likes it.

Making my own homemade would be better, but it is too time consuming. Still better than kibble. My dog doesn't like dry dog food so the base mix and protein addition

Making my own homemade would be better, but it is too time consuming. Still better than kibble. My dog doesn't like dry dog food so the base mix and protein addition is a good compromise and probably healthier for him.

Can’t believe my dogs scoffed it down. They actually seem more excited to eat!(if that’s possible!)
