I kinda agree. Depends on what you call people food. Technically really good quality dog food is made from good quality people food. I let my girls have bits of toast, carrots, green beans, scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, regular cheese (not processed cheese) apples, pineapple, plain chicken or beef, plain liver, raw hamburger (from our own side of beef not store bought). This would all be 'people food'. What you said about processed food is I think the difference. I wouldn't give them mac and cheese or anything like that. Their mainstay is a good quality kibble and what I mentioned above are sporadic treats. Baxter can eat pretty much whatever he wants, he has the stomach of a goat. Every morning I make bacon and eggs, Baxter stands behind me and he gets a bite of bacon while the girls are lined up in front of me and each gets a tiny bit of toast crust simultaneously. They are none the wiser. Bear on the other hand, at 80lbs cannot have so much as a lick of a steak bone, he is very susceptible to pancreatitis, no bacon for him either, he gets a larger bite of toast. They all, once in awhile get dog cookies, those organic ones, the chocolate chip kind made with carob...
