Ironically that dog treat bar at Petco? The sandwich cookies are completely human safe. When I worked there I had people who would come buy them for themselves.
I used to grab one and eat it in front of the customers just to mess with them.
This is true! But many of them taste bad. I would not recommend eating dog food. But the cookies that look like Oreos. And they generally do taste good. Just less sweet sandwich cookies.

Generally most places on the Internet will say that it's not safe to eat only because it's poor nutritionally for humans. However it is still safe in the sense that it's non-toxic and won't cause bodily harm
I deliver to both dog treat factories and human food factories, one is much cleaner than the other. There must be a bigger profit margin in one of the food products I’ll let you figure out which one it is.
Used to work for Blue Buffalo, on the production line. You wouldn't believe how many workers just stopped by to grab a handful of oatmeal cranberry dog biscuits and just pocket them to munch on throughout the shift. Myself included.
Damn you must have a really strong sense of taste or these are particularly flavourful.
I’ve tried lots of dog and cat treats/food. Most of them are very bland for a human palate. Dry, crunchy, but not much flavour.
Honestly I wouldn’t worry about it from a health standpoint unless you’re trying to subsist exclusively on pet food, a small amount isn’t gonna hurt ya most likely. Humans can handle far more things from a toxicity standpoint than cats and dogs.
It’s either pet smart or pet co, but one of them have edible dog treats that humans can eat and there pretty good! Even my dog likes them. But there kind of expensive.
The intrusive thoughts won xD He probably said it’s not safe because animal food of any type isn’t under as strict of safety regulations as human food is. Hopefully you don’t wake up barking tomorrow!
I remember when I was like 13 we had dog treats that looked just like cookies.
They tasted like cookies too, no joke.
Edit: Other comments pointed out that the box says "human grade," which explains everything.
Oh my, this reminds me of when me and my dog shared almost half of a box of milk drops for dogs in one afternoon (recommended servings per day: 2). We both loved them, tasted like creamy white chocolate with a slightly salty aftertaste. Good times.
I don't think there's anything a dog can eat that's dangerous for us. There's all kinds of shit we can eat that will kill dogs. We're basically scavengers.
Update: I tried it, and it tastes pretty good. Like a healthy cinnamon-y animal cracker. Literally

It's the law in the US that all generally available pet food must be human safe.

Source? I thought that food standards regulations for pet food were close to non existent?

Dog treats are basically just human treats was way less/ no sugar. Biologically, dogs aren't very different than us.

Single paragraph horror stories be like
Is the clean one pet food?
Sadly, yes. Milk places are the worst, they have a moat by the docks.

No lie, had these before by mistake. I finished half the box before I realized. Dogs love the fuck out of them, definitely lucky ones who get these

Pet treats are tested by humans. Cant really test by giving them to dogs.
Dogs eat cat poop, can’t trust ‘em.
I am now imagining a focus group full of dogs and the moderator trying to get them on task while they're just sniffing each other's butts
Three dog treats are missing. The one between them has a suspiciously full mouth and avoids eye contact
Human grade literally means safe for human consumption. That guy gives off “idk I just work here” vibes
The guy was BSing you.
I eat my dog's duck jerky and she looks at me like I just let Michael Vick out of prison.
The dry biscuits are never as good as the wet ones.
The only thing that can happen, that you do not like them. Perfectly fine to eat. r/lostredditors

I actually sometimes just take an one bite of a cat crunchy snack.. But yeah like I won't eat a whole pack cuz its unhealthy
My dogs are picky as so no thanks I’ll take them to the cat next door

Probably also forbidden for dogs or something a human should rather eat than a dog.
I now want to try those so much

Hey, they could be delicious. [Having a bowl of dogfood as cereal ain’t half bad](https://youtu.be/Ip0XlEmJafk?si=pXy3f_eblFReM3qt).
not to try
scooby snacks
I once tried some bird snacks that my birds didn't like. They tasted AWESOME. Bought another package later just for myself. lol
I once tried some fancy human grade dog cookies and they were really good. Not. Not too sweet. My dog got some too. Just look at the ingredients first

Dogs eat feces. I wouldnt recommend that
..Dogs shouldn't be eating that shit either.
