Dick Van Patten Selling Dog Food - He Eats It Too

[matcom]

<snip>

LOS ANGELES -- Actor Dick Van Patten is hawking a new dog food he says is good enough for people to eat. And he should know -- he's tried it.

The "Eight Is Enough" star recently sampled the "Irish stew" recipe at a media luncheon. His verdict: "Not too bad."

Van Patten is lending his name and likeness to the new dog food formula that claims to be indistinguishable from a home-cooked meal for humans.

"Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance Eatables for Dogs" also comes in such flavors as spaghetti and meatballs, hobo chili and Chinese takeout.

1. Good for him!

So, when he says it has a meaty flavor, he's speaking with personal knowledge. :D

2. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

:shrug:

[kick-ass-bob]

3. He was mighty?

;)

[Beware the Beast Man]

7. Hence the shrug.

[Fenris]

4. If I were to kill Dick van Patten and grind up his carcass...

Would he make his own gravy?

[GOPisEvil]

6. Only if you add water.

20. that is

fucking disgusting. Just like those places are.
I guess I have to admit I was wrong to ever have any respect for the guy.
And I hate being wrong. :argh: :nuke: :grr: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke:

A guy's gotta eat? He could try getting a real job, like many of the people that those places rip-off have.

8. *urp!*

Yup, strong enough for a dog... But, I like it too!

[CanuckAmok]

10. Great productfor Bush's Murika!

Just in time for the demand... a cheap dog-food that people can eat!

Now when he starts marketing a K-car with enough room to sleep a family of four, he'll be in the zone!

[Hugin]

11. Didn't the Pontiac Aztec fit that bill?

Driving around a pup tent?

12. His Natural Balance foods are very good.

I can even feed my diabetic cat his venison and green pea dry food because the carbs aren't that high.

[Beaverhausen]

18. My cats love his food

and they are very healthy and happy girls!

[Deja Q]

13. Hey Dick, 8 bites is enough. Actually, I'd think 1 is more than enough...

:rofl:

[SOteric]

14. If they really wanted these things to appeal to dogs,

you'd think they'd come up with some 'cat' flavoured stew, or 'squirrel risotto,' maybe a little 'rabbit in gravy' with a 'some other dog's ass' flavoured mousse for dessert.

[DS1]

21. Is that mousse in chocolate flavor or peanut butter?

Because I've seen both :D

[SOteric]

23. No, no, it's in

"Some other dog's ass" flavour.

[City Lights]

15. My felines love his food.

Dry and canned.

[Hardrada]

16. Some of my friends think Chinese take out

is dog food and mop water anyway. What a bunch of schnooks and schmoos I find myself with.

17. Best Letterman "Top Ten" ever

"Top Ten Body Parts or Van Pattens"...

Number One-"Dick".

[sbj405]

19. I feed it to my dogs. They like it. I can't vouch for it.
