My friend went to give my dog a treat the other night and asked if it was o.k to give her a fruit shortcake biscuit.

Nope, not that, it has raisins that dogs can’t digest, have you got any cheese?

Craig opened the fridge and offered parmesan?

Have you got any cheddar?

I’ve got this nice ham, she’ll like ham.

Not that though it’s formed.

It’s ham.

It’s formed, if I won’t eat it I won’t give it to my dog.

Now Craig does think that I am a little extreme at times with my feelings towards food, but he was also very dissapointed that the ham was formed. He saw the ham in the shop and as it looked like just plain unadulterated ham he bought it not noticing that it was clearly labeled ” from formed cuts of meat”. He decided then that he didn’t want it either.

Many people I meet think that I am vegetarian & then learn that I will eat meat & also things that some may find a bit repulsive, I will try pretty much anything as long as I know where it’s been, and if it’s from a good source and undoctored that usually good enough. I dispise the hidden chemical additives that is sneeked into our food for monetary gain  & corporate monopoly and it is not restricted to human food. Although some bought dog food actually contains less disturbing ingredients than is allowed to be labeled “fit for human consumption”. Read Fast Food Nation if you really want to know what is legally allowed to be put into burgers, sausages, nuggets etc and you may think dog food pie to be a more tempting option.

Well rant almost over with,

Here is a recipe for treats I make for my dog, which any dog that has tried just loved. It’s also the stuff that my brother ate after the pub unaware that I had made it for the dog.

Liver cake:

1 lb lambs liver   chopped

2 cloves of garlic  chopped

2 eggs

4 oz  plain flour

Stick all ingredients into a bowl and blitz it with a mixer. Scrape into a loaf tin ( no need to grease ) and bake 180 % until firm. Cutinto chunks when it has cooled. I put the batch in the freezer and take out a couple of days worth at a time.
