you need to stop eating anything with four legs that you manage to catch.

At least Barbaro didn't beat his wife.

Why? There are plenty of tasty four-legged choices that don't involve endangered species (or dog/cat for that matter). ;) **eats roast beef sandwich**

So what kind of breed tastes best?

What is dog commonly served with? Dog and rice? Dog and potatoes?

Does it come in lunch meat?

edit: all these questions are serious. if none of the dog eating crew can humour me, I guess I will have to rely on wiki or google which is about 10 times less interesting and informative than hearing it from someone in the know.

Americans adopted sushi. Dogs and cats dont seem that far off.

Rednecks around here have eaten animals that are far less appealing than a dog...

Eatings dogs in South Korea is illegal. Less affluent, older generation ate dogs due to lack of food during Japanese occupation and Korean War. It never was part of the culture. Eating dogs is looked down upon as "uncivilized" and "dirty" in Korea.

Exactly. Something about being at the top of the food chain rings a bell :)

It is no worst than eating pig or cow. No need to feel ashamed that many of our people eat dog.

ok, but you'll always be ashamed of the small penors!

1. Point on odd eating habits

Not every culture emotionally attaches themselves to an animal. With that point said, everyone has odd eating habits (they just don't happen to be a pet of yours).

Blue Cheese (bacteria infected mammal secretions) - America (amongst others)
Dog/Cats - Asia
Seal Flippers - Canada
Rabbits - France
Camel Feet - France
Mice - Russia
Bull Testicles - Asia, Spain, Canada
Reindeer Blood - Sweden
Animal Heads - Asia, America, France, Norway to name a few
Squirrels - America

And jeez, what about Placentas? (Eaten by some radical feminists)

btw..i'm simply pointing out that we're ALL to blame for the world going awry because alot of the comments i've read tend to be asia this, asia that...we're in America where nothing's wrong...

2. to comment on the extinction of animals:

Iceland eats just as much shark as Asia. Personally, I feel the whole tiger remark (however valid) is just a snub at Asia in general because the same can easily be said for any other country as well:

Asian Animals going extinct due to fir trade in America/EU (Wild Yak)
How many Bird species are endangered now due to hunting and simply lack of wildlife resources in many developed countries? Same goes for grizzlies and whales in general.

Is anyone thinking that China in all honesty is one of the last countries to have much natural resources available to them. And the fact is because they are poor (in the vast sense to population). And what's scary is that as they do become developed, natural resources will be wiped away just as it was done in every other developed country and there's nada we can do about it.
