Except for MacGyver … he needed that CHOCOLATE bar to save the day!  B-)

Any MacGyver fans out there? :bye:

Remember when …
In the series’ pilot, after MacGyver uses a paper clip to short-circuit a highly advanced timing device on a nuclear warhead and diffuse the bomb at the very last second, our hero comes back to save the day with chocolate.  While using the sweet treat to plug up a sulfuric acid leak, he explains that, when mixed with acid, the sugars in chocolate form elemental carbon in a thick, gummy residue.

Nothing fazed him … what a cool program that was.

In regards to dog treats, I thought chocolate was poisonous to dogs?

Or are dogs making the noble sacrifice and letting their humans have more of it?

That's a good boi!!!

Yes, you’re correct chocolate is bad for dogs.  However, the pet bakery shops have a way of making their treats look like the real McCoy.

I give these safe cookies to my dog … looks and smells like real chocolate chips … yet the chips are carob … this is from 3 Dog Bakery.

When I go to the local pet shop and they have other types of dog cookies on display … they have frosting and candy sprinkles on them and they look like chocolate flavor cookies.  But they claim its “safe” so I’m not sure what those cookies are REALLY made out of?

When I was a kid I used to occasionally munch the corner off a Milk-Bone dog biscuit.  Given that admission, tell us Geri, have you ever tasted doggie cookies?  Would the proprietor at 3 Dog Bakery let you sample, say, a broken off piece?  Maybe if you snarl at him he'd let you.

:mdrmdr:   You were brave!  When I worked at Nabisco … this one guy was doing the stats on the sales of (Milk-Bone) and saw things weren’t adding up with the amount of dogs in the area vs. the amount of boxes being purchased.  It was over the top extreme sales in certain retirement communities in Florida.  Hence they were consuming the dog biscuits. :mdrmdr:   Also they LOVED Fig Newtons too. :yes:

Well I will confess … I used a knife and picked out 1 carob chip in his cookies … I was curious to what that tasted like since Yohanan said his mom would use those all the time and he didn’t like it but Tammi said yum to them. B-)    But no … I haven’t gone any further in the taste test with these … I love to smell them though … seriously they smell like REAL homemade chocolate chip cookies.

But I will confess … back in the 1970’s I accidentally ate a dog “people” cookie.  Remember them?  They had the mailman, milkman, paper boy?  I didn’t read the box … just saw the cool picture (hey I was used to eating animal crackers … so why not people crackers) B-)   I ate one and I must admit :bye:  it was good.  Normally I would go food shopping with her and sit in the carriage so not sure why this time I wasn’t with her.  My mom was still bringing in the rest of the grocery bags and walking up the stairs when I said “mom, these are really good cookies you bought!”  She looked puzzled and said “I didn’t buy any cookies”  I said yes, they are little people cookies …she said “those are for the dog!”  :mdrmdr:

I am here to rain on your parade. 😉

Don't eat too much chocolate.

The medical staff at a clinic in the Dominican Republic was coming down with two cases of coronavirus per month before lysine therapy was instituted. Best Naturals L-Lysine...Buy New $9.65 ($0.04 / Count)(as of 02:45 EST - Details)

The virologists, Drs. Christopher Kagan, Bo Karlicki and Alexander Chaihorsky, strongly suggested the front-line healthcare workers embark on a daily regimen of lysine therapy due to daily exposure to the virus.  Their ground-breaking report is published online at ResearchGate.net.

Arginine/lysine balance

Lysine therapy interrupts the replication of viruses, including COVID-19 coronavirus, by countering arginine, an amino acid that fosters the eruption of dormant viruses.  Lysine has been safely used for decades to quell herpes virus outbreaks that cause cold sores on the lips (herpes labialis), a treatment pioneered by one of the Bio-Virus Research team members in 1974.

Lysine is available in foods and in concentrated form in inexpensive dietary supplements (250 500-milligram lysine tablets can be purchased for under $5 US or 2-cents per tablet), making affordable lysine therapy possible.

Lysine Rx in Dominican Republic

The daily therapeutic supplement regimen for the medical staff in the Dominican Republic consisted of 2000 milligrams of lysine capsules along with restricted dietary consumption of arginine-rich foods such as nuts, chocolate, orange juice, pumpkin, sesame seeds, wheat germ.
