It looks like the raw veggies are within the kibble pieces. It does NOT say if they are pureed or in chunks. I guess that someone would need to dissolve some pieces to find out. If there are chunks in there then be very aware of potential blockage risks.

Here is a quote from the manufacturer's own webpage:

For other health concerns involved in raw diets (such as salmonella, TB strains, E. coli, etc.), please use the FHL archives. Opinion is very split on this dietary approach and there is no real reason to re-hash it, especially with it so well covered in the Archives and hense so handy for anyone to read in http://fhl.sonic-weasel.org .
