Well I did try giving Speckles some popcorn, but he just tore it into little pieces Laughing We've also given him small pieces of chips (Pringles to be exact) and wheat thins, althought the wheat thins aren't probably classed as junk food Razz Oh yes, and pretzels - half the time he eats it, half the time he plays with it Laughing

Oskar LOOOVES sugar cookies...
I didn't actually give him any....he just took a big chunk off of mine. Rolling Eyes
but as soon as he was done with the piece....he tried to get more!!
and when I wouldn't let him have any...
he reduced himself to eating my crumbs.

Ehmm. They'll get popcorn when I make it: No salt is added.
Iago even got icecream when he was out in the ZOO.. (A very small bite, and NOT recommended! It's not part of his dinner!!)
