The TikToker told New York Post:

"I definitely wouldn't do it again. Even if dog food has high protein content, it's definitely not worth it."
"I would totally rather [have] a nice steak."

A spokesperson for dog food company PEDIGREE told The Post:

"PEDIGREE dog food is formulated for dogs."
"While the food would not be harmful if a human consumed it, we do not recommend pet food for human consumption."

Take it from both TikTokers and professionals - just don't.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.
