If there was "Purina Human Chow" would you eat it?

Sometimes I don't feel like cooking at all when it's my turn. I envy my dog. I can always give him Purina Dog Chow.

I wish there was Purina Human Chow. I'd eat it sometimes.

:hide:

:grr:

I lurve(d) their Market Fresh Sandwiches and those little stuffed potato triangle thingies. It's just that nasty roast beast with the cheese squirts that make me queasy.

I sometimes just want something I could dump in my "bowl".

it's a tub of food you can stick in your face!

On a side note, the Dinty Moore beef stew we ate in college was always referred to as "Dinky Dog" beef stew, in deference to the dog food Mel Gibson and his dog ate in The Road Warrior.

Also a complete diet for humans.

Problem is that Purina does not use "human grade" ingredients in its animal chow.

Here's a video I found (#7 of 7) of a guy that went on a 7 day diet of Monkey Chow. His weight was normal at the beginning and he lost 5lbs. Overall he gives it a thumbsdown. Poor monkeys. I bet they don't really like it either.

Cheap, portable, easily stored, and balanced nutrition. There certainly ought to be a market for that.

We already have human chow. It's called cereal.

That being said, as much as I consider myself a foodie, when I am busy on a project I often wish I could just eat some human kibble and be done with it. However, I don't think I'd trust it if it were made by Purina.

Didn't seem to be so popular though.

But don't buy anything from those bastards Maruchan!

You can eat it straight from the box, and it's a complete meal.

Same basic Idea and taste

and opening a can is too much work.

and therefore really could be considered Purina Human Chow

"1970 - Foodmaker, Inc. merged into Ralston Purina's Checkerboard Properties, Inc. operations, which then changed its name to Foodmaker, Inc. Ralston Purina operated the company as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Under Ralston Purina, Jack in the Box restaurants underwent a major expansion in an effort to penetrate the eastern and midwestern markets, and the business grew to over 1,000 restaurants by 1979. That same year, Foodmaker, Inc. decided to concentrate its efforts and resources in the western and southwestern markets, which it believed offered the greatest growth and profit potential. Accordingly, the company sold or closed 232 Jack in the Box restaurants in the eastern and midwestern markets."

Probably be processed all to shit. I'd avoid it.

'nuff said.

to get it.

pretty much the same thing without the "chicken parts".....(you don't want to know.)


mark

thinking about a balanced diet, and cooking, and stuff, when I could just pour something in a bowl? I like the idea of "Bachelor Chow".

So, yes, I'd eat it.

:P
