Dog FTW

[Snee]

I've actually been wondering about people eating dogs for quite some time now.

From what I understand carnivorous and omnivorous mammals don't taste too well, on account of the diets they keep. I understand how people can eat it, otherwise, as what's socially and morally acceptable varies between cultures and all that. I just don't see why people anywhere would eat something that supposedly tastes wrong to most people, assuming there are options.

If we eat cow and sheep I can think of no serious moral objection to eating horse or dog.

If we eat chicken and turkey I can see no serious moral objection to eating owl or eagle.

If we eat tuna and salmon I can think of no moral objection to eating dolphin.

So that leaves whether or not we find the meat palatable. That to a large extent is based on what one is used to. Which to a large extent would depend on what was available when and where you grew up. That is changing due to culinary imperialism, however we can still see a great variety in people's diets across the World.

Who am I to say "stop eating dogs" any more than someone is entitled to reply "stop eating cows then".

Does he know if they really do taste like chicken?

You are making me so hungry.

plus you are more of a man if you eat carnivores. People need to continue to establish dominance in the food chain.

Indeed, wouldn't want the cows to get ideas.
