Can't be too hungry- or is it that they are, but the 'government' officials are not?

We can thank our local reporters also, shooting their mouths off about "dog food", "pet food" etc. That must have been reported overseas. They must be feeling really proud of themselves. Stopped a dying child eating "dog food"
