So, why do people frown when hearing that koreans eat dogs!
I am not korean, but I had dog dish years ago.
I don't think people frown upon dog eating not because it tastes bad or there is something gross about it. Rather it has to do with the fact that in this culture dogs are pets and you don't eat pets! 😉
I cannot bring myself to eat something that can love me and I truly feel that a dog is capable of love.
But when you get right down to it, it's really no different from eating a pig. And from what I understand a pig is probably as smart or smarter than a dog and hence probably also capable of "loving" a human. So, it's really about culture and the way you are raised.
BTW, I have an uncle that visited China recently and he and some of my cousins tried dog meat there (the other cousins who were more "Americanized" refused to eat it). Apparently, they even raise dogs to eat there.
