You know how Fido goes totally mental whenever you crack open a can of his favorite meat chunks? Well, he has Simon Allison to thank for it. From Neatorama:
Mr Allison is a senior food technologist for Marks & Spencer with special responsibility for pet produce.
He insists he relishes the task and has trained his palate to detect the delicacies preferred by dogs and cats - and their owners.
"You have to chew it a bit.
"I have trained my palate to look for materials that we will not allow in the recipe, such as tripe - pet owners react badly to the smell of tripe.
"I'm looking for a patè texture, almost to the point where you could spread it on crusty bread."
His favourite is the organic luxury chicken dinner with vegetables for cats.
"It has the taste and aroma of chicken and some of what you call the red flavours - things like heart and liver; gutsy, savoury notes.
"Then you get a mealy, green pea, pulse aroma and occasionally a sweeter note from the carrot."
Oh, really? He thinks the organic luxury one is the best? I would've figured the cheapest one that contains parts of horse, bark and sawdust would've earned his thumbs up. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go test out my cat's litter box.
He looks like such a smug deutsch. Why on earth would he look so proud of having the lamest job in the planet? Just think, I feed my dog real food while queer balls over here gets to eat dog food every day ... and he can't even lick his own balls. I'm sorry but if I got to choose who I'd be reincarneted as it would be my dog for sure.

he took stupid drunken college bets, went a step down, and then somehow turned it into a career.
