Anybody ever get sooo hungry you ate the dog food?

Or am I missing a survival trick in not tucking into Fido's food on a regular basis when it pops up?

I ate them a while ago now near starvation and that saved me...
I also got sick one time eating one with an average condition, so its a kind of "no other option" choice now and usually leave them behind me....

I usually eat the dog food on Day 1, to keep other stuff fresh. It's when you're at the healthiest so that doesn't do you much harm.

never thought much of eating the dog food, i eat canned goods first because they weigh alot

What do you mean mean do you harm? I eat every dog food i can find, noticed no difference from the other food.

It seems all food have a chance of making you sick depending on their %. I often eaten food around 20%, sometimes even below 5% without getting sick but I have also gotten sick from eating meat with 63%.
I often eat dog food (in game that is! XD) Because it have a high calorie count. If I am out scavenging and need to eat and I do not have any meat on me, the dog food is my first option if I have any on me!

[goblin]

Well yeah the spoiled food thing applies to all food. Are you saying dog food has a higher chance?

In real life or in the game? (I'm assuming in-game but I just want to make sure)

[goblin]

Of course we're talking about in game lol.

I actually ate some cat food in my youth because of a dare, tasted aweful!

But I somehow don't think that is what the op asked for. :P

Why wouldn't you eat the dog food in the game?

I tend to roleplay this game quite a lot, and yes, there were some situations where I was desperate enough to eat dogfood. Gave me a nice reason to write a journy entry.

Dogfood gives a decent amount of calories, and, let's be honest, I don't think the meat in there has a much worse quality than the stuff they usually put into canned soup (or Mc Donald's burgers). It tastes awful, of course, but if you hold your nose and swallow quickly enough, it should be bearable. I think it's better than eating expired stuff.

After a while (30-40 days) I had my rifle, ammo and my own base. Then I began hunting for bears, deer and rabbits. But now my ammo and arrows are all gone, and I need to go out and scavenge again. I think the key really is a weapon and a base with a good amount of wildlife around it.

I wonder how dog food tastes i have to try it someday. I ate a snack for dogs when i was really young and it wasn't that bad at all actually. Even if it's bad you can eat it easly with Mayonnaise i think. You can eat everything with Mayonnaise.
