    He's overlooking another category - the mascot. For instance, rabbits appear on chocolate packaging for Easter. Or simply something like Tony the Tiger on Frosted Flakes.

      Surely the lion is the mascot? there's no lion carcass or bees inside and lions didn't make it nor are they the intended consumer.

    Scuse me but how is fish not all 3 categories? They can be on a package where the fish is the food, they can be the providers of caviar but they also are quite often the image of fish food. And last time I checked, fish food is intended for the consumption of the fish that usually adorn the packaging.

    It can get worse than just the picture on the package.
    Consider things like whale oil, cod liver oil, mink oil, olive oil, peanut oil, coconut oil, safflower oil, rapeseed/canola oil, sunflower oil, peanut oil, palm oil, soybean oil, corn oil, flaxseed oil, walnut oil, sesame oil, avocado oil and...
    BABY OIL.
    Granted, motor oil is also a bit of an outlier but the idea of getting oil out of a motor is notably less disturbing. I'm not sure what picture you'd use with the more appropriate name of ancient plankton oil. Some oil companies use pictures of dinosaurs which is roughly the right age but the wrong organism.Technically baby oil (and mineral oil, generally) is just another distillate of the same ancient plankton oil.

    You're ignoring the packages of dog meat which feature pictures of cute dogs. These are high end grocery items. (My ex-partner was almost caught out by this one). I dare say there might be packages of cat meat available in some places too.
    Now you might say, "oh no, that's a different culture. I just meant 'in the UK'". Well, you might take a trip to a farm supplies store, and admire the pictures of various animals on food intended for their consumption. Many of these items are also found in hardware, pet supply and grocery stores. So hardly a peculiar foreign practice.
    That brings us to pictures of rabbits on rabbit poison, rats and mice on rodent poison (and traps, etc). Also pictures of animals on non-food products intended for the care and/or killing of those same animals.
    Snails.
    Where do we place pictures of lambs on sacks of lamb formula made from milk 'stolen' from cattle? You might need another category for that.
    And then there's pictures of fish on fish bait made from fish, intended to lure fish to a hook so that humans can eat them...
    Probably the only animal that doesn't appear on both food for it and food made from it is the human. Baby food, yummy....
