A VERY GOOD USE OF YOUR TIME.

The setup

Ben Marshall can't talk his Please Don't Destroy partners out of a trendy new meal service that is, by any honest reading, dog food.

The premise

Here’s the bit.

In their cramped SNL office, John Higgins and Martin Herlihy tell Ben Marshall they have stopped cooking thanks to Dawg Food, a no-prep meal plan whose bag looks suspiciously like kibble. They eat it from steel bowls with their names on them, insist the spelling is what makes it different, and argue that a food should not be off limits just because an animal eats it too. Ben's objections escalate when an actual dog trots in to share Martin's bowl, John deflects the criticism into a muddled grievance about a romance that never happened, and the pair offer to upgrade to the wet variety, with ketchup. A closing memorial card suggests John did not survive the diet.

Highly quotable.

So now we can't eat stuff just because an animal also eats it?

Don't eat wet dog food.

It's not just wet dog food. I'm putting ketchup on it.
