Yummy Food
Posted by Virginia on October 4, 2006, 1:32 pmOne thing I love is food! Yep - you might think that is because I'm a beagle and beagles LOVE to eat! But it is also because I eat well and it is a real treat to have special meals in between eating Sensible Choice kibble.
Like today. Today my friends and I got a special meal of Sojourner Farms mixed with green beans and tripe.
Tripe is very yummy and because it now comes diced, it is easier to fix. Yes, diced scalded tripe went for $1.27 a pound, so the package, which weighed 3.04 pounds cost $3.86. Tripe that is not pre-cut requires a lot of work to cut because it can be pretty firm, although we love tripe in strips too!
Anyway, my human companions get a real kick out of the fact that Sojos costs $1.80 a pound and green beans go for 88 cents a can, so altogether, 3 cans of green beans, the tripe package (cooked of course in the microwave and cooled before serving), plus the sojos came to $10.25 divided by 17 of us, equals 59 cents each. That is the same price as canned dog food on average and way more natural and healthy!
I'd rather eat natural than canned any day if I had the choice! Of course, I know that fixing such a gourmet meal is not something I expect everyday with the busy lives my human companions lead, but several times a week works for me! Yum Yum!
