I was reading recently that the ancient Mayans fed their dogs fruits and vegetables then ate the dogs.

containing freeze-dried pork, beef, chicken and mutton as well as flax seed, green-lipped mussels and deer velvet.

If I'm not mistaken, didn't the UN or Oxfam give some starving African country a few years back a cheap, edible, high-carb and protein rich foodstuff similar to this? I believe P.J. O'Rourke referred to it as "Famine-Chow."

And as the Kenyans say, "I'll die before I eat dog food".

They could label it hash and they would die fighting over it.

This may be un-pc, but how does that old saying go?

Some people are too proud to accept charity, and other people are too proud to accept charity that isn't brand spanking new in the wrapper.

Let them eat insects and bark instead.

I looked up the dog food, looks like it's pretty good quality--none of this 80% corn meal crap. Under the circumstances I think I'd accept it with as little publicity as possible.

Fascinating to see this thread developing into a "Why can't they eat dog food?" discussion. Very interesting.....so Kenyans have no right to object when somebody offers to feed them pet food (even as aid)?

Guess anything is okay in the name of charity.

If they don't accept it, we should .. don't you all know George Bush is going to need all that dog food so our Sr. citizens will have something to eat after he gets done privatizing SS?

If any of you ever hear that I am starving send me anything that is edible or potable.

The stuff sounded pretty yummy until I got to the 'green-lipped mussels' part.

When the going gets tough...

I can see why the sound of eating dog food is a turnoff--but the way I see it, it is indeed better than nothing.

Though from the sound of it, I don't think I'll be at her house for dinner anytime soon...

Is this even true?

Dog food is more expensive than many canned human foods.

What, eat dog food when there's a cornucopia of juicy flies and roaches inside every rotten log? Perish the thought!
