Have you ever tasted your pet's food?
Looking past the recent vegan drama, have you ever wondered why your pet might not like particular foods? Have you ever actually tasted the food yourself?
I have, and some taste more like a chemistry lab than actual nutrition.

I mean, animals don't necessarily experience taste in the same ways humans do. What tastes terrible to me may still be very appealing to a dog or cat etc., regardless of taste.
The way my dog licks his balls you'd think they taste really good, but they didn't taste great to me
I’ve licked some good balls before tbh
A dog eats poop. That might as well say that taste is experienced very differently.
You got a dumbass dog then, our adopted stray dog won't even shit anywhere near our apartment, let alone try eating it..
Look it up, most dogs eat poop.
Thanks. Our dog knows how to respond to the word NO, because he's not outright stupid.
If you could reach yours, you would too
True. Still, have you ever tasted a chemistry set?
I did when I was 10 years old. It's a wonder I'm still alive. Raw chemicals are not nutrition.
What constitues chemicals for you? I agree with your point- if your dog doesn't like the treat and you find it tastes unnatural, I agree it's maybe a bad treat/crappy quality treat.
But "chemical" is not really a descriptor for taste- everything is chemicals. Sugar is a chemical. There are chemicals in natural foods such as meats, veggies, fruits, it's all chemicals. I think you're trying to say that the treats taste unnatural or overly processed?
Maybe you're right, maybe 'chemical' wasn't the best way to describe it. I can definitely agree that those treats tasted completely unnatural.
I mean like they taste like they were soaked in diesel fuel and dried out unnatural. That's why I described it as a chemical taste.
