Question: Is there such things as “human food” (in parallel with “dog food”)?
We’ve got a food for every creature. Dog food, cat food, fish food, iguana food.
The closest things I could find to a “human food” (A food that you could live off of indefinitely) were mainstay rations and the like, but not accounting for fiber and other misc needs, they’re not intended to be lived off of indefinitely.
Is there such things as a “human food”? That is, 1 single food that you could healthily live off of for the entirety of your life?
I kind of figured this would happen. Allow me to re-elaborate:
Imagine it like a perfect cereal. A cereal that you could healthily you could eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, every day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, without becoming malnourished.
Though you may sometimes change a dog’s brand of dog food with age, generally speaking, “dog food” will keep a dog healthy even if that is the only thing it is eating.
I’m trying to find a SINGLE processed form of ration that can do the same exact thing for humans. “Fruit” is not an food, it is a food GROUP.

Well, along with water, I guess maybe fruit? But that would lack in protein. You know I really don’t know. Maybe vegetables and water?
Question: Are all “human foods” bad for cats? If so, why?
Like when you’re making a tuna sandwich, and your cat sits down by your feet and looks up at you as if to say : “If you don’t give me some of that right NOW you pathetic little human, I will destroy you and all those you hold dear”.
Is it bad to give in?
I know chocolate, garlic and onions are bad, but what about ham, paté (meat products) and tuna, sardines? (fish in general?)
The vicious little monsters would eat that in the wild too, no? I get mixed opinions.
They have and eat normal cat food, but as they always want what I’m having, be it tuna, or orange juce (weird huh?) I was just wondering if a little piece from time to time was ok.

Plain meat is fine for snacks as cats are carnivores.
Fish is ok on occasion
Veggies and fruits hold no value but as far as is known, do no harm
grains, carbohydrates can do harm, Rice, corn ect
Sugar can do harm
My cat got diabetes from eating dry food because of the high carbohydrate load

Question: Do you know anyone who buys and eats cat and/or dog food because he or she cannot afford “human food”?
I have an ongoing debate with a friend about this … he says that old people who don’t have enough to live on routinely buy cat (or dog) food to eat themselves. I say, sure there may be a few senile elderly folks out there who do this but it’s the exception to the rule and very uncommon. Taking a survey of sorts here. Thanks.

Question: What “human food” can I use to replace my cat’s food?
My cat, who is overweight, is always begging for human food. He eats his dry food, but I’m thinking of switching him to a wet diet. But the good quality wet cat food is so expensive, I was thinking of just giving him human food–I have a friend whose dog is on a raw food diet and he’s doing great. Does anyone cook for their cat? How do you figure out how much to give them? I was going to start giving him ground turkey with occasional fish.
