Turducken

The almost mythical Turducken. It is a Turkey stuffed with a duck stuffed with a chicken. This follows the same line of thinking as bacon wrapped filet Mignon that more meat will equal tastier food.

This bayou classic allows dogs to get in touch with their southern senses. The delicious combination of Turkey, Duck and Chicken all cooked together in their wonderful juices makes even vegetarians reconsider their pledge. It's time that all of our dog friends had a taste of this Cajun Treat. The Merrick family says – “geaux for it!”

The lovely people at Merrick have turned this concept into a dog food. It contains turkey, duck, chicken, sweet potatoes, green beans, and granny smith apples. This is a very similar ingredient list to the Puppy Plate (difference is green beans vs peas & carrots). I have to admit, I was just excited to buy my dog some Turducken, I was sucked in!


The consistency is more similar to what you'd expect of a dog food, very thick. I don't think I'll be tempted to sample this one. Mickey is also wary. Since we've introduced the new mix-in to his food he is eating 1/2 bowl less a day. I will continue to keep an eye on this (we also had more treats this weekend than normal) to make sure he's still eating enough.
