You can just gnaw on dog treats if you want. Like nobody is stopping you. My parents tried and failed many many years ago, but the sandy texture of the treats they bought was a major turnoff for me, so no need fam. If dentabones or whatever had been a thing back then I might have a different story…
Fun fact; most pet foods and treats are tested at some stage by humans for flavor, because animals can’t really give proper critique. So someone, somewhere, has probably already eaten them.
I’m a very small sample size being one guy who works in a dog food factory. But we absolutely do not test our products on humans. All our meat products are marked not for human consumption.
The seasonings and what have you are often tested by the npd crowd but I can’t imagine a scenario where anyone would actually try the finished product.

In many places catfood and such is mandatory to be safe for human consumption.
Because people will buy it to eat when they can’t afford real food…
