Help! I think I made a horrible mistake?!


Question: I was at the grocery store, and I saw tunafish for sale for 26 cents a can. I bought some and took it home and had it on a sandwhich for dinner and boy was it delicious.

But a few hours later I looked at receipt and it said "Meow Mix: Tuna flavor cat food"

Gasp!!! Am I going to die? Do I need to see a doctor? Will I be okay???

You are a very creative writer :) I must say. You will be fine, as long as you are sure the food wasn't recalled. If you got it from a reputable grocery store, I'm sure it would have been pulled off the shelf by now if it was one of the foods on the list of recalled canned foods. If it was delicious, I'm wondering what kind of food you usually eat. :)

You'll be okay. Just lick yourself clean and curl up on the sofa and catch a catnap.

It won't hurt you, but what a horrible thing! lol.

you will be fine. i just don't understand how you confused the taste and smell. but yes you'll be fine.

go see a doctor please! for the sake of ur health!

lol, you'll be fine.

my mom and uncle once pulled a prank at a party. they put cat food on crackers and served it as tuna and crackers. later they announced that it was cat food. everyone was fine, just angry. but if you do get sick, it's probably mental.

um no, you won't die....your breath will prob reek and your belchese will be fierce, but you won't die. Hope ou weren't on a diet, cat food is loaded with fat. That's the only reason that it isn't good for dogs to eat it.

I know other people who have died from that very thing.

Youll be fine. makes your coat nice and shiny

Gross. I am sure it was an honest mistake. To be on the safe side I would see a doctor yes.

you'll be ok, my brother used to eat dog bones when we were kids! lol
Sometimes the animals eat better then we do!

I think is a terrible mistake, but I don't think you have to worry about. For shure it is not poison, so try to think in the good sandwich you just ate, and the good taste it had.

That's some messed up stuff right there.....
Holy Cow!

LMAO!!!!!!!

yes you will be fine
there is nothing toxic about cat food

LMAO!! Dont mean to laugh but next time pay attention to what you pick up... I dont think you will die from eating cat food beside it was still tuna! lol

Ha ha ha....it was delicious???? hmmmmmm I'll try that!!!!

Just kidding..... I think you're fine!!!!!!!

As long as it wasn't a recalled cat food!!!!! Might wanna check that

****!!!!!! didnt you notice?? look at the can it should say in the back of the lable for incase its accidently swallowed!

Nah. You won't die. As a matter of fact, you probably got something out of this: a story to tell your friends and family. =]

lol, are you serious? if so dont worry about it, as long as the Chinese fixed their accidental plastic chemical getting into cat food, you should be fine :o)

If it's good enough for a cat, it's good enough for you.

ICK is about all I can think.....did you remember the catnip?

if you dont fell awful after eating it then i think your okay, anyway it will just comes out in your end

For you shall live and not die ..... cats do have 9 lives yes but its not because of their diet....

LMAO...my best friend is a beef jerky junkie ....she found a real deal as well.....lol

lol, you'll be fine just go see a doctor.

come on are you serious? cat food does not smell like tuna fish, it has a different kind of smell. I couldnt mistake tuna for cat food. I know the cans are similar but really you couldnt tell when you were adding the mayo etc..
you said the sign said tuna fish .27 cents a can. did you check all the cans that you bought after seeing the receipt? or are you now saying you bought 1 can and ate it therefore it was the catfood.

You wont die or anything BUT I bet you check the cans before you eat anything next time.

That is frigging hilarious! (sorry don't be mad) But it fricking is! Anyways, I could totally see how you'd get confused but you'll be fine. It's just a crappier grade of meat. Save this story for your next party....you'll be a hit! If you're really worried, call the hotline on the cat food can or go to their website. Trust me though, you'll be okay. Heck I've eaten ALPO on a dare & Milkbones just to gross out my cousins. I was fine.
P.S. Some of that moist pet food DOES smell like stew or real fish, especially the organic stuff. Lay off it could happen to anyone.

The only thing that will happen, is that within 24 hours you will be meowing instead of speaking English. Oh well. =^..^=

callt he poison control center at you local hospital or 1800 222-1222 its a free call and you can tell them the ingredients and how much you ate and when ,,they will tell you what to do.it could be realy bad for you if the meat isnt clean and cooked .......

Yes, you're going to die.
