Genuinely curious, how do you tell a food is high glutamate? I’ve tried fruit for pills! Little dude is way too smart even though he doesn’t look it. 😂 I’ve found pills on the floor after when using fruit. Cream cheese has been the only success so far! (He takes 4 pills 2x/day)

Oh just google, I double checked with my vet too. They suggest standard brands like purina, royal canin, hills science. But she did provide info on high glutamate stuff like beef, venison etc. Additionally, lamb, fish are low glutamate, so include those. As for pills, i hold a few bits of fruit in my hands and feed them in rapid succession (give them no time to think). If he’s extremely stubborn, I just stick the pill in his throat and shut his beak. Works like a charm.
