What are dogs gonna do, complain in human language that they don't taste like pumpkin or cookies and cream?

There's no scenario where a reasonable and normal human being can ever prove or disprove the advertised flavor of dog treats. And if you do? Congratulations you fucking weirdo, yeah maybe they lied but YOU put a dog treat in your mouth. You lose by default, bro

All it needs is themed packaging, a vague colorful tint, and boom it's now whatever flavor you say it is. If anyone objects, "ah, nope. They just taste bad to you because you're not a dog"

It's all such silly goosery

I can think of nearly nothing that doesn't smell so close to how it tastes that it makes no difference

Vanilla extract would like to have a word with you

    Pretty sure it is the same. I just went and tested. What makes it seem otherwise is how concentrated it is. You're only getting a teenie weenie portion of it into your nose, it's diluted in any recipe (and the alcohol [like 95% by volume in the container] burns off while cooking), but if you taste it you're getting it super duper heavy on your tongue, alcohol and vanilla.
