A thousand tomorrows may soon pass without you once having tried dog food. Pet food has come a long way since I cleaned kennels in Michigan and sneaked every of the six types I dished out to the dogs and cats. I see that in 2001 Ralston, Purina, and Alpo merged to produce a line of food that surpasses in flavor and nutrition anything that I've sampled previously. Honestly, it's better than most fast food and some cafes. The Filet Mignon cooked in savory juices is great on spaghetti. The Chicken Rotisserie beats Colonel Sanders because it's not too spicy. It's one thing to enjoy a hearty Roast Beef for dinner, but something in the gravy takes it to a whole new level. The Lamb and Rice may be preferred by those who fear carcinogens in beef and chicken. Like dogs, cats, and most people, my two kit foxes that I feed nightly would rather have gravy on their food. Budget shoppers will find the food affordable in 13-ounce cans selling for about $.70.

    The 13.2 oz cans come in at ~1000 kcal and I can’t really find them for less than $1 but I’m sure they are on sale or can be bought in bulk.

    I was just curious so checked out a comparison with Soylent. While not sold with such succulent taste variety, it is targeted toward humans and costs around $4.50 per 1000 kcal going down in price to $3.85.

    I wonder what the shelf life is. Might be good to pack with the other SHTF supplies.
