Let's see -- Mortimer is a cream cheese fanatic, while Banjo will become quite brazen in the quest of any sort of cheese left on the table. (She usually doesn't come anywhere near "The Giants" -- we might pet her, or something.) Sabine licks the melted butter off napkins and also likes popcorn.

You couldn't keep Tractor away from pork chop bones or rosé wine. (Long before my wine sense had developed; we were young and it was cheap.)

Ivan would gobble uncooked noodles out of the cellophane bag on the counter.

A friend's dog is a vegetable fanatic. He once dragged a bulb of garlic out of my purse just before snagging cabbage off the counter. Raw potatoes, carrots, anything was fair game.
