4) The “Flavor” rule - There is no percentage attached to an ingredient described as a “flavor”. There only needs to be an amount sufficient enough to be detected by test methods. As you can probably guess “Chicken Flavored Cat Food” may contain very little chicken. In this case it doesn’t even need to be chicken as we normally think about it, but instead can be chicken meal or chicken by-products.

While pet food labeling is regulated at the federal level, some states have their own labeling laws. Many follow the Pet Food Regulations established by the AAFOC (Association of American Food Control Officials).
The secret of pet food descriptions are dictated by four AAFCO rules...
1) The 95% Rule - The products that fall under this regulation have simple descriptions such as “Chicken Cat Food” or “Beef for Dogs”. These foods must contain at least 95% (not including water) of the named ingredient. In this case, chicken or beef. If a food description contains more than one meat, poultry or fish ingredient such as “Chicken and Liver Cat Food” , then both ingredients combined must equal 95%, with the first named ingredient being the highest percentage of the two. The 95% rule does not apply to grains and vegetables, so “Chicken and Rice Dog Food” must still contain 95% chicken.
2) The 25% or “Dinner” Rule - If the named descriptive ingredient falls between 25%-94% of the total product (still not counting water), then the description must include a qualifying word such as “Dinner”, “Platter”, “Formula”, etc. As in the first rule two listed ingredients must have be at least 25% of the total weight combined. So, “Chicken Dinner” only has to contain 25% chicken, while “Chicken and Liver Dinner” only has to contain 25% of the two combined. (Minimum of 3% of any named ingredient.) Unlike the first rule, the 25% rule applies to all food, not just meat sources.
3) The 3% or “With” Rule - This is where things get a little sneaky. Any ingredient on a label proceeded by “with” must equal at least 3% of the total weight (minus water). That might sound all right if the food is “Beef with Chicken” (95% beef, 3% chicken), but how does it sound in this form...”Dog Food with Beef”? Yep, that tells you that it only has to contain 3% beef! (Makes you wonder what the other 97% contains doesn’t it?)
4) The “Flavor” rule - There is no percentage attached to an ingredient described as a “flavor”. There only needs to be an amount sufficient enough to be detected by test methods. As you can probably guess “Chicken Flavored Cat Food” may contain very little chicken. In this case it doesn’t even need to be chicken as we normally think about it, but instead can be chicken meal or chicken by-products.

Your publisher will initially have a marketing plan for your new book. But ultimately it is your responsibility to market and promote it. Don’t solely rely on the publisher’s efforts. Why not? Because there are many variables that can limit the publisher’s marketing plans. For instance, other new books the publisher is promoting limit the promotion budget for your book. The budget has to be allocated among all the new books on th
