I find myself getting jealous of my dogs. I mean, they’ve got this miracle foodstuff, that provides them with all the nutrition, fiber, vitamins, etc. that they need, and keeps their coat shiny and their teeth clean as well.
Now, I appreciate a varied diet. Every so often, I feel the urge to make a good beef with broccoli, or split pea soup, or chili; there’s a Thai restaurant down the road that amazes me constantly, and sometimes that craving for a fast-food burger is hard to resist. But for me, and from what I can tell, most people, most of the time eating is something done quickly, thoughtlessly, and in between bouts of doing other things. Most things I eat, I just don’t taste.
So why is it that, when I’m in a hurry, I have the options of stopping for fast food, or microwaving something, neither of which is probably not nutritionally complete, probably to the point of actually being bad for me? My dogs, meanwhile, are skarfing down a big bowl of crunchy goodness.
I want People Kibble. Can some of the board’s nutritionists let me know why this is difficult? Or, better yet, get out there and invent some? I’d like the Chicken flavor, or maybe Beef with Cheddar, or Honey Nut… mmm. Crunchy, nutritionally complete munchie nuggets. That’s all I ask for.
And as a bonus, it may solve some of the transportation problems that cause hunger in developing nations. That dog chow just never seems to go bad.
Thank you for your support.
