Dogs and cats are omnivores. I once had a cat that liked sliced apples, and another one that liked cooked green peppers. And as for my dog… he’ll eat anything I give him, if I say it’s OK.
It depends. Some dogs can handle grass, and eating grass is harmless as long as the grass is not chemically treated. The speculation is that these dogs simply like the taste. Others vomit when they eat grass, and the vomiting could certainly settle their stomach. The speculation is that these dogs are eating the grass in order to settle their stomachs, but it could also be that they simply like the taste. I’d guess that if the dog eats grass only on occasion and throws up after eating the grass, then he is doing it to settle the stomach.

Cats eat grass too when they’re feeling sick.

Just smoke some grass and you’ll be fine.

Grass (eating, not smoking ;) ) makes dogs vomit, which in turn soothes an upset stomach by getting rid of whatever is causing the upset.

I once had a cat that would kill for cantaloupe.

I heard a long time ago that dogs eat grass because they like the taste of it. They vomit after eating the grass because they can’t digest it.
