Kosher dog treats for your meshugenah mutt – human taste test!

Written by admin

When the box arrived from K9 Confections, I was a little confused. Elaborately frosted artisan cookies in festive Chanukah shapes, all in a pretty package with easter grass. Were it not for the pooch on the label, I might have eaten the whole thing.

The line between human and pet products is becoming increasingly blurry. On a recent visit to my parents’ house, I mistakenly used a bottle of dog shampoo on my hair throughout an entire long weekend. It worked great and smelled like mangoes. The only mention of canines on the sexy bottle was “perfect for all breeds” in the fine print.

K9 Confections is no exception. Their menorah treat looked too much like people food to resist, so The Luxury Spot staff decided to take a bite. Ingredients are an organic mix of rolled oats, organic oat flour, natural Valencia peanut butter, natural honey, safflower oil, organic golden flaxseed, and spring water. Good enough for us, and probably healthier than Chips Ahoy!

It really didn’t taste bad. It was a mildly sweet, dense cookie with a nutty aftertaste, not unlike a Clif Bar. Ashley thought it was edible, but could not embrace the idea of eating dog treats. Our intern Rie shrugged in bland acceptance.

But what about the dogs? Fortunately our new office mascot Chloe was on hand for a taste test. After passing owner Brian’s organic standards, Chloe quickly scarfed one down, and seemed to enjoy it. I asked her for a quote on the experience, but she only stared…

K9 Confections obviously puts a lot of care and effort into their product. Their treats are home baked, organic, and allergen free, and taste good enough that you can split one with your pet. If you’re willing to pay a little extra for wholesome ingredients and nice presentation, The Luxury Spot recommends K9 Confections.
