Our Overall Rating: 4.7 / 5 (Excellent)

Nom Nom excels in many of the measures we considered when evaluating dog food meal delivery companies. Its variety of nutritious, AAFCO-certified, veterinarian-and-nutritionist-formulated recipes, along with available nutritional counseling and customizable diets, add up to a package that's hard to beat. Nom Nom foods are made from minimally processed whole food ingredients. The company offers four wet food varieties, but no dried kibble meals. That's in service of freshness, Nom Nom publishes a blog for pet owners who want to learn more about dog nutrition, pet health conditions, training, and more. Articles are indexed by topic so you can find the subjects that most interest you easily. The articles we reviewed were well-written in plainspoken language. Kudos to Nom Nom for doing its part to educate pet parents in a non-commercial way.

Nom Nom Recipes

Menu Options - 4.8 / 5

Nom Nom fresh dog food formulae are created under the supervision of board-certified veterinary nutritionists. The company states that all of its recipes are made from whole foods, augmented with added nutrients, including a custom mixture of Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B12, Iron, Iodine, Zinc, Selenium, Copper, Manganese, Choline, and Taurine. Nom Nom stands out for only providing grain-inclusive recipes. Grain-free dog foods are often deficient in Taurine. This deficiency has been implicated in at least one heart condition in dogs. So from our perspective, it's a good thing Nom Nom foods contain grains. And judging from the photos on the company's website, Nom Nom's assertion that "every meat and veggie is gently cooked individually" is pretty easy to swallow. Really, this is one bowl of dog food that looks like it was cooked for humans. In addition, all foods meet the basic standards of the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO).

We have two dogs...a English Springer Spaniel and a Golden Retriever. We started NomNomNow 3 months ago....it is amazing the difference in our dogs. They were on a high quality kibble...yet the difference in their coats, their energy and overall health is amazing. They get so excited every meal...dancing and "talking" for their food. I am so impressed with how the food is delivered, how it is package and how much our dogs have changed for the positive. I would highly recommend!

This is the absolute worst food company you can feed to your animal that is if you love it at all. The service of customization was a limit of 2 choices for cats. And they don't care for their customers, in terms of feedback, I wasted about $100 in just wasted products with it going to the trash since my cat refused to this disgusting food since I know for sure no other animal will. I only hope it gets shut down soon or get into bankruptcy. GARBAGE and TRASH is what this is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
