When was the last time you ate dog or cat food?

[Kaleva]

While the pet food commercials may lead one to believe that their brand of is very meaty tasting, I found it to be quite bland.

1. MiddleFingerMomDad got halfway through a can of beef jerky while watching TV...

...before turning to MiddleFingerMomMom and telling her that
it was the crappiest thing she had EVER brought back from the
grocery store (he was something of a jerk).

THAT'S when she looked closer at what he had and informed him
that he was eating doggie treats.

2. We had "tea parties" with dog kibble when I was young....

Very young, but it tasted pretty good to me. If I were starving, I would eat the dry food before I would touch the canned stuff.

11. I read this as something totally different

the evil in me wants to show up at a modern day tea party with dog kibble and tell them that we're product testers and want opinions on this new "snack."

We did this when I was younger to my sister's friend. We told her a Bonkers (cat treat) was a new kind of candy. She said it tasted fishy.

3. Used to eat dry dog food as a kid. LOVED IT! Thought it was better then animal crackers.

True story.

4. I tasted fish food once

I was about 6 or so, don't know exactly why. Curious, probably, and saw that the fish in the aquarium liked it. As I recall, it wasn't bad.

Later, I read the ingredients, and my brother helpfully informed that it contained bug eggs and all manner of icky stuff.

I was still proud of eating it. And, as I say, it didn't taste half bad.

5. About two years ago I ate a bite off a milk bone

Bland and crunchy.

6. As a main course or a side dish?

I've been known to sample my dogs cuisine. Not lately, though.:rofl:

7. Dry cat food is sort of bland and greasy.

I don't want to try the canned stuff.

14. Actually, it depends on the brand

Personally, I like Friskies--the same brand I feed my cats! :silly:

A couple of months ago, I was so hungry and out of food (and money) I was forced to eat my cat's Friskies Feline Favorites. Cat food was the only food I had.

8. Try adding salt

9. not in 40+ years

but I remember the flavor - kind of a stale corn, crunchy, cereal but not sweet - edible but not all that appealing.

10. Dog food is good for you. It has fido nutrients. nt

[edbermac]

12. I've never eaten dog.

What's it taste like?

[Iggo]

13. I was about 3 or 4, maybe.

MPS Chunks.

(It smelled sooooooooo good...lol.)

15. The chicken strips I give my dogs are delicious 100% chicken

Better than jerky. They have glucosamine and are called Happy Hips. Both dogs act as if they're much younger than they are. The toy poodle is close to 15 years old and still jumps off the back of the sofa onto the floor. The rescue is about 10 years old and is still a great athletic dog who catches frizzbees in mid air.
