Would it make you happier if purina combined the first two ingredients? You seem to think it matters how many times corn is listed in the first 3 ingredients. If it were only listed once all the sudden this would be the best food right? Some companies do this. Gives you a false sense of security since it is only up there once. Purina would have every right to combine these two into one and make their product look better. They don't though. Why not? You put so much merit in the foods that play this little labeling trick, mainstay could join in.
