Not likely, unless he decides it was so yummy that he won't eat his normal food. Next time your friend does something like that just shove one of your oscar's pellets into HIS mouth and see how he likes it. Turn about is fair play. Still, I wouldn't leave a friend like that alone with my fish tank. :(

I have heard some people feed their oscars burgers and hot dogs. They basically eat anything. They are like fish dogs. I am not saying that it is good for them, but once shouldn't hurt.
