Man vs dog & dog food on Colbert
Stephen Colbert has a hilarious send-up of the dog food vs paté research paper we recently discussed. Check it out! (and see what he puts in his mouth–ack!)
In further canine wine news, also check out “Learning to sniff out corked wine” in the current issue of Food & Wine. Inspired in part by a grudge against a beagle from Customs and Border Protection, Ray Isle engages in a competition with a Sonoma winery dog (no dog food consumed by either party).

Wow. That was hilarious. Stephan Colbert is a genius. I especially liked the tag line at the end, “This seemed like a good idea when we were hammered on Merlot.” And I nearly lost it when he sipped that water.
Interesting also to see this research making it to Comedy Central. I guarantee many viewers then googled the AAWE and then maybe ventured into the wine blogosphere to learn more about wine in general and see any other interesting research.

I appreciate Stephen Colbert as one of our greatest satirists. I consider him a modern day Jonathan Swift. Ultimately through laughter he raises people’s interest, and as Laurie rightly pointed out, allows people to explore beyond the initial joke.

This begs the question . . . which wine would you pair with Fancy Feast? I’m voting for a Rosado.

Lol! But which variety of Fancy Feast?? My cat Dennis is partial to their Fish & Shrimp flavor, which I actually think might go well with just that type of wine. Oh wow. Now I’m pairing my cat’s food with wine? It’s been a long day.
