\u201cIf you put bugs<\/a> in my food, I’m going back to chewing your\u00a0shoes.\u201d<\/p><\/div>Someone once told me that people savor meat because they like the taste of fear. I don’t know if that was supposed to put me off my feed, but it didn’t.

Odysseus is beefing about bugs in dog food today, and those weak, meek, short, frail, skinny, mousy people are always yammering on that one protein is just as good as another \u2013 but this is obviously not so. We get more from meat than its proteins, and that something more may be the literally-ruminative flavor of savage predation \u2013 paleo-drool-bait.<\/p>\n

Whatever. We are meat-eaters \u2013 omnivores who dine on his contributions and hers: Meat and anything else, otherwise. Likewise our pets. Dogs eat what we eat because that’s why paleo-mom let them stay indoors in the first place \u2013 to eat our garbage before the bugs get to it. Cats eat meat and fish \u2013 period.<\/p>\n

People who would cause a pet to be born only to torment it for life with a virtue-signaling diet are instantly suspect, in my estimation. People who would inflict that kind of diet on their fellow men are monsters.<\/p>\n
