I only ever ate dog food once, when I was poor. (I will never look at corned beef with respect again)
it made my f@rts stink really, really, bad, but my coat came up nice and shiney

Thankfully the NorPusses eat what is put in front of them, unfortunately it is a pretty expensive cat fud. Wouldn't feed them iams or whiskas, you might as well give them mcDonalds.

Cat food however is a different matter as they are fussy barstewards and will turn their nose up at pretty much anything.

I become suicidal if I have to go once every couple of years.

So we must be OK then, because all of our 'mislabelled' horsemeat ready-meals were supposedly produced outside of the UK.... in fact hasn't most come from continental processors, like Spanghero over in Fra.... oh hang on

Either way, I don't consider it ethical to run soup kitchens and the likes on food the general population wouldn't touch for good reasons (like the dodgy supply chain in this case).
