i don't think that food exists for that reason. it probably exists so owners can add fresh meat. or it exists for common dietary issues in dogs

Is that why it claims complete & balanced nutrition? Because you're supposed to add meat?

There are minimal levels of nutrition pet foods need to meet for calories, protein, fats, etc. So long as the food meets those levels, they can call it nutritionally complete no matter what the sources of those values come from.
