Merrick Classic Real Chicken Dry Dog Food

Dad

I saw this one online. Thought it looked good. Your first reaction?

Boldo

The bag smells legitimate. Not that artificial chicken powder garbage. It's got actual meat in there, I can tell. But I've been tricked before, so I'm reserving judgment.

Dad

Okay, you've been staring at it for ten minutes. What's the verdict on smell?

Boldo

It smells like roasted chicken. Honest smell. No weird preservative undertones like that grain-free stuff you bought last year. The kibble itself has a decent aroma too. Is that bacon I smell from the kitchen? No? Just wondering.

Dad

Now that you've actually used it — what do you think?

Boldo

The kibble is the right size and doesn't dissolve into mush in my mouth. It actually tastes like chicken, not filler. My digestion is normal too, which means you're not paying for expensive poops. It's solid.

Dad

The cat hasn't touched it. Does that mean something?

Boldo

The cat won't eat anything anyway. She's a snob. This is actually a good sign because she would definitely steal something genuinely bad for her. The fact that she ignores it means it's real meat, not table scraps mixed with corn.

Dad

Rate it. One to five. You know what the ones are.

Boldo

Four poos. I didn't expect to like this as much as I do. The smell is right. The texture is right. My body feels good eating it. You spent the money wisely for once.
