[The Sons of Liberty]

There have been cases of senior citizens were forced into eating dog food. I think this was some time back before pets were eating gourmet meals, and dog food was competitively priced.

When I was in college and broke, one time my roommate and I tried cat food. We said "Hey, how different can it be from tuna?" Believe me, it can be A LOT different!

I visited with an old college friend years ago - he was doing graduate work - really brilliant - and broke. Long story short he was bragging about some really cheap canned tuna he had bought and asked if I would like a sandwich. I was game. So he made two sandwiches, we sat down to talk, and we both took a bite... you guessed it - cat food. Both of us were spitting the stuff out, gagging and pulling tuna bones out of our mouths - the stuff tasted rancid... He became my children's God Father - the cat food was always a good story between us. He died some years ago... - lived long enough to see all his godchildren married...

We might be the only freepers with this experience, Son of Liberty... and you're right - it's A LOT different! Thanks for sharing.
