Franklin used to eat his poop and occasionally still does. We mainly try to take him outside though so that it's not an option. We tried sprinkling meat tenderizer in his food which was supposed to help but didn't really work for us. You might give it a try though. Something that did seem to work was Deter - it's a pill you buy at Petco/Petsmart and feed to them once a day. It's supposed to make their poop taste bad. Also you can sprinkle some Tabasco sauce on his poop and then let him lick it.. he might not ever want to eat it again!

If none of that works, I think a change in diet might also help. Eukanuba is full of fillers and artificial flavorings to make it taste good. Since the food is just filler, it is not digested and just comes right out in his poop. He may be smelling it and trying to eat it.
