Your mind will be blown once you learn about 'different flavours'. I wish I could ask my cat which he prefers.
Couldn't you have multiple flavors out to eat in order and see which one they eat first?
I don't have a pet but I think I'd do that. Food is mostly fuel for pets so they'll eat what's available unless there's a problem. These things are manufactured to be appealing to your kitties. If they won't eat it you won't buy it.
What Whisker likes today might not be appealing to him tomorrow, and he will ask for it in 2 months when you thought he didn't like it. Don't get me started on which brands he favors depending on which direction the wind blows. That being said, I got mine to eat his wet food by mixing pumpkin purée for human babies with it. It worked for almost an entire week.
Fun fact, pumpkin purée is the #1 vet recommended cat laxative.
That is a fun fact!
