Subject: Eating Cat and Dog Food to Save Money
From: Bert C. <70473.1567@CompuServe.COM>
Newsgroups: la.eats

Dear Consumers Group:

I've decided to eat cat and dog food to save money, for about half
my nourishment.  I would like suggestions and advice here,
including:

Any good recipes to prepare and/or mix my cat and dog food with.

The nutritional aspects of both cat and dog food.  Which one might
be the best nutritionally for humans?  (e.g. protein content, etc.)
Which are the best products to buy (best taste for least cost)?

Comparing the canned and dried products.  I figure I could use
mainly canned foods for lunch and dinner, and the dried/bagged
products as an alternative for breakfast cereal (should I add
milk?).

Advice on the social aspects of pursuing such a diet.  I would
like to brown bag my cat or dog food to work, so I can eat it
in the break room for lunch.  How do you think I should deal
with co-workers who might be disgusted with what I'm dining on?
But, if you ask me, eating cat or dog food can't be half as
bad as all that McDonald's and Taco Bell that I see my co-workers
bringing in the break room to eat.

Any other advice you can give.

Thanks
