Every other dog I’ve ever owned was perfectly happy to eat apple cores, carrots—anything but onions and mushrooms. The current poodle is an obligatory carnivore. Just ask her.
I made the mistake of shooting a bison once, something I won’t do again. It took my wife and I a year and a half to finally eat the entire thing and we were giving it away left and right. They’re delicious but it takes a village . . .
Then you need to try out Book and Dagger! It’s the story of how Bill Donovan weaponized America’s universities and libraries to invent the Intelligence business as we know it today. As an old MI sergeant I was fascinated.

Smart hunters these days quarter the deer and pack it in a big ice chest—with ice. It makes for much more palatable venison. And yes, it hides down in the bed of pickup better, too.
