Since labelling legislation varies from country to country, pet food manufacturers may be required to list all ingredients. For example, [[USA Pet Food Labels|in the USA]], a pet food manufacturer must list all ingredients used providing information about any process used to make the ingredients and the chemical names where appropriate (for example, [[Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) - Nutrition|pyridoxine hydrochloride]] (source of vitamin B6).
