Woman sick after eating tainted pet food

did you kow that you can survive on peanut butter.... I would think a jar would last much longer than a can of dog food... and much more substance to it.

I agree with Kim (catnapper). She would have had to eaten a lot to get that sick. So, I doubt she was tasting it to coax her dog into eating it. I just don't understand why anyone would choose to eat that even if she were poor/starving. As sparks said, a can of raviolis is pretty cheap as are many other canned foods. Human foods! I would much rather live on chef boyardi than alpo. And if you're THAT hungry/starving, who gives a rat's a$$ about nutrition? Just get something in your stomach.

I don't know, something just doesn't seem right here. Either way, I hope she gets better and the help that she obvioulsy needs.

Ever eat a lot of raviolis?? It makes you really sick! I cannot even eat one can without becoming ill for days. If I ate that when I was starving, I would have gotten dehydrated crazy fast & thats super deadly!

I don't know, but maybe canned dog food doesn't make people ill (as in getting the runs & horrid gut pains).

Nutrition is crazy important to a starving person... Ya eat anything you can get your hands on, but if you had the option between raviolis & dog food... Dog food is so much healthier & will keep you going longer & healthier

Understandable. My point is that there are other things out there that are more nutrutious and inexpensive than dog food.

YEP..... like I said before... Peanut Butter is great. It has a TON of protien which is excellent... probalby more protien than cheap canned dog food. Lots of other good stuff too.... You can technically survive and be fairly healthy living on only peanut butter. And because of all the protien it lasts longer in your stomach so you don't even have to eat as much. BTW, someone else brought up the Ravioli... I can't take credit for that... but it's a good thought.

As for the Ravioli's If college kids can survive on it... anyone can lol
