A small amount of these foods should not cause any serious issues. Some dogs may develop diarrhea or an upset stomach from new or different foods. To lessen the chance of this, I would feed him a bland diet (boiled chicken and cooked, white rice in a 1:1 ratio is a good option) for the next day or two! If he does seem to feel bad it is never a wrong idea to visit your vet! I hope this helps!
