Does anybody eat their fish's food?

I will admit that I did try the Omega One Veggie Flakes (they do have fish in them) and it smelled really fresh and appetizing! I'd emailed Omega One and gotten information about their products, how they harvest (they are very "green") and use whole fish and other types of "seafood", creating the best product they can. They didn't taste "off" or stale, but just as I expected a fresh, quality fish food to. Don't check out the dog or cat food, but I have taste-tested my horses' grain and fresh hay!! Wouldn't eat any on a steady basis, but when I think of what's in bologna, hot dogs, and alot of other processed foods . . . . blech! :D
 
On Fear Factor and Survivor, two tv reality-based shows, people eat live insects and other things which are absolutey disgusting to most of us; yet since money is on the line, these folks purposefully choke them down (excuse me, bleeeewwwghhh); fish eat them, too.

In some countries, it's one of the few protein sources humans have. And they scarf 'em down with gusto. Grubs, beetles, ants, winged types like grasshoppers, whatever. So, think about the world outside your own little boxes and realize that some of us do like to check out the quality of our pets' foods--to a limit. And one of the most endearing human traits is curiosity (it has other qualities, too, not to be explored here). :D
 
Yeah, I don't think my stomach could handle a steady helping of fish food, I'm not saying I can. Only so much a human belly can hold in. But I do try some of it when it's a brand new food, just to see how it tastes.

Wow.

I've never been tempted to try fish food. The smell kind of turns my stomach a bit. Back in the days of my wee little youth..(ok like 15 years ago) I had tried dog food. It wasn't disgusting, but surely not something I'd munch on if I ran out of chips.

LMAO !!
 
It's never occurred to me to try fish food. I did try my dog's Milkbones, though. pretty tasteless and plain. Cat food is sour.

I would never eat brine shrimp or worms either. I saw a guy on The Man Show chug a mug full of live brine shrimp and I almost puked. I wonder if the water was all salty, blagh.

:rant2: An aside. . . .
***By the way, making fun of Jay's misspelling of the marker "sharpie" as the dog "sharpei" was kinda snooty considering the common careless spelling mistakes made in forums (notice, PLURAL). No, I'm not the spelling police or any other policing force; it's just so ridiculous to see people spell "lose" as in "I lost my fish"--"I lose water through evaporation"--but it's often spelled LOOSE. Loose is when your clothes are baggy, a girl will go out with any body, how loose did you leave the lid on the jar of mayonnaise? Why don't people make fun of that? :rolleyes:

Or punctuation--why does it matter? Because it shows that we care, and aren't brainless thugs. Object/words ending in "S" don't always have apostrophes. And there are particular placements for those apostrophes. Man, the education that people get in other countries, and the fact that they are used properly, is embarassing. We are a lazy nation in alot of ways.

***disclaimer: this is a generalization, as there never are all people doing something at any time, there are educated people in the USA who utilize their learning, and I'm not trying to belittle, slam, put down, or hurt the self-esteem of any of our dear readers.[/COLOR :thud:

[btw, I believe dog and cat food, canned and dry, has more insect and rodent feces partilculates per million than other foods. Although, did you ever wonder how those little bugs got into the flour container, cornmeal, and other grains? The eggs were already there.]
 
Ok. This is how it is. I was not making fun of anyone. It was a simple play on words. All done in jest, it seems that some individuals need to toughen up. This is an internet forum. Gosh, saying that as Americans we are lazy is an astute observation. Not only are Americans getting lazy, but we are getting overly sensitive. Most Americans are all about themselves, and turn issues that are not about them into personal issues. People think everyone owes them something.
HERE IS A HINT, A LITTLE TIDBIT THAT WILL HELP YOU ALONG IN LIFE:
