Why do people always worry more about the health of their pets than their own health?

I just saw a question regarding salt that should not be added to a pet's food. Now as the vet said, it is bad for pets, but its not like its going to kill your pet immediately. It will also just weaken some things in its body and make it more likely to get certain things which it can die of. The effect is pretty much the same as with humans. Yet people are more likely to stop giving their pets the unhealthy food than to stop eating it themselves. Why are people like that?
