Frequently Asked Questions

Both Whole Food Clusters and Essential Clusters are 100% human grade and made using our MadeHonest™ process—which cold-presses, roasts, and gently dehydrates each batch to lock in nutrition and flavor. They’re crafted in a human food facility with high safety and quality standards and never include GMO ingredients or fillers like corn, wheat, or soy.

The key differences come down to ingredients and variety:

  • Essential Clusters are made with healthy whole grains, high-quality protein, and the essential vitamins and minerals dogs need to thrive. They’re ideal for adult and senior dogs and include dual-protein options.
  • Whole Food Clusters build on that foundation with added superfoods like broccoli, kale, and carrots for extra health benefits. They also feature single-protein recipes and are boosted with probiotics to support digestion. This line also includes options tailored to puppies and small breed dogs.

Both lines support heart health with added taurine and promote healthy skin and coat with added omegas.

Each pound of Essential Clusters equates to about 4 dry cups of food.

Find your dog's daily feeding amount using the feeding guidelines.

Divide that amount by the total dry cups in your chosen box (see below).

1 lb bag= 4 dry cups
5 lb bag= 20 dry cups
20 lb bag = 80 dry cups

Example:

A 30 lb dog with an average activity level is recommended 1.5 dry cups per day.

If you purchase a 20 lb bag (80 dry cups), it will last 53 days.

Being human grade means that every ingredient in The Honest Kitchen's pet food meets the same safety and quality standards required for human food.

Our suppliers must adhere to strict guidelines, including human-edible status from harvest through production, adherence to Good Manufacturing Practices, non-GMO ingredient usage, and freedom from chemicals or adulterants.

Each supplier provides a signed 'Human Food Grade Guarantee' and undergoes audits to ensure compliance.

Additionally, it means that all of our foods are manufactured in a facility that meets all the safety standards of human food facilities.

All of our products are backed by our 90 day money-back guarantee. If your pet doesn't like the food, please contact our customer support team at questions@thehonestkitchen.com.

Please note that some sales and short dated products may not be eligible for refunds. This will be noted in the sale terms and conditions.
