The Beneful Dog Food Taste Test Challenge

Not me! Silly people...

I thought we were out of dog food when I was perusing the grocery store earlier today and so I picked up some more, only to come home to discover that we had a plethora of dog food in our cabinet. Yes, I feed my dog soft food. Yes, I know he is spoiled. No, he doesn't like hard food anymore. No, I don't care- he has discriminating taste. He knows what he likes, he's like his mother.

His taste is so discriminating in fact, that I decided this would be the perfect time to test out which flavor was Matlock's actual favorite. And so the preparations began:

I put them in color-coded order so I could remember the order in which they were plated when it came taste testing time. Me, color-code something? I know it's hard to believe.

The more I prepared the feast, the more excited I got. With my keen expertise and observation of how fast Matlock ate each type in the past- I ventured a guess that he would definitely go for the (green) Savory Rice & Lamb Stew.

And so the Beneful Dog Food Taste Test Challenge began...
(I should note that I believe I was missing one or two types of the flavors here, so all Beneful meals are not represented in the taste test below.)

With a quick taste of the (yellow) Chicken Stew (the one that was closest when I set the food in front of him), he noticed there were other types on the plate that might suit him better. But from the looks of the picture above, we already have a leading flavor in sight.

And the winner is...

Yay for (blue) Roasted Turkey Medley (that was my second choice).

And in case you really wanted to know the breakdown:

1st Place: 
Roasted Turkey Medley

2nd Place: 
Savory Rice & Lamb Stew

3rd Place: 
Simmered Beef Entree

4th Place: 
Chicken Stew

Tied for Last: 
Beef & Chicken Medley
Simmered Chicken Medley

But in the end, Matlock preferred his busy bone over all of them. You should see the busy bone we got him for Valentine's Day, but that's tomorrow.

Always, ANIBSHO
