new dog food startup Golden Child is going straight at the luxury pet crowd with a fresh frozen meal system and a weirdly fancy “drizzle,” plus $37 million in funding to back it.

$37M to sell “drizzle” for dogs is so Silicon Valley it hurts. I’m not even mad, I just want to know how long until they launch “drizzle for cats” the second customer acquisition gets expensive.

Lmao “drizzle for cats” is 100% coming, probably in a smaller bottle with a higher price tag. my dog would inhale it once and then stare at me like i owe him a michelin menu every night.

Lol “michelin menu” is exactly it. once you normalize the topper, plain kibble becomes the sad weekday lunch of pet food.
