Would you eat dog?

[Structaural]

Angola... but he eats it in the Philippines too.

So... did it taste like chicken?

 

[girasol]

south americans, in particular brazilians eat them as well.

i miss stuff like cow foot - christ, i miss living with a jamaican family...

Do we? Their hearts get eaten (yum) but I don't remember eating chicken's feet... ever... although that doesn't mean it doesn't happen

in answer to the original question, yes I would. We eat pigs, and they're even more intelligent than dogs, so westerners are even more evil than dog eating people

wouldn't eat a cat though... why doesn't anybody eat cat? Maybe their meat tastes horrible. ooops, just seen Yetman's post... See, cats are well clever, they even make their meat taste like shit so they dont' get eaten

 

[London_Calling]

Humans eat cooked meat - everything else is culture and taboo, init?

I'd give it a go, prob 'tastes like chicken'.

 

[DotCommunist]

Not had dog, but rather like dolphin

evil

 

[ohmyliver]

so, in short, dog is a bit rough, but it gives you something to bitch about

The soup was lovely but the claws really should have been removed IMO. I managed one but it was fucking odd & put me right off eating the rest of the soup.

I'd have the soup again only if it was guaranteed not to contain the actual feet.

I've had a bit of whale (not stree whale though). It wasn't that amazing.

 

[chymaera]

Would you eat dog or have you?

I would have thought anyone who has eaten takeaways for a number of years must have eaten both cat and dog at least once.

If you catch me rubbing a dry spice mix onto your dog Zenie, you know I have changed my mind.

is that a euphemism?

FACT!

Chicken feet are great to add thickness and flavour - love them in a good old caribbean red bean soup for example - but there's something a bit disturbing how they surface, hand like, from the depths of the bowl. There are some good places where cowfoot is served in Brixton CharlieAddict - in fact Real Taste opposite the Thai Hootananny place used to do some great stuff that tasted as close to family cooking. Either that and I'll you a recipe/bowl next time I cook some up.

Anyone else want to share their dodgy preconceptions of the Chinese and their propensity to pass off pets as meat then. Silly cunts.

I had cows foot as apart of the mixed meat option I had with joloff rice at the (excellent) 805, apparently the best west african/nigerian place in town...

 

[frogwoman]

no never.

dog's not kosher anyway

If it meant the difference between living and dying?

This is where I got my chicken foot soup from today.

 

[Yetman]

I had cows foot ..

Isnt it just like a big hard hoof? How could you eat that?

 

[Onket]

Apparently it's boiled for ages 'til it goes soft.

I really don't think humans should be eating bones though, it's not right.

 

[ohmyliver]

no, it was like a big thing of grissle, its hard to explain,

 

[frogwoman]

I'd have to eat it then wouldn't i. But I'd feel terrible.

i ate dog in indonesia - i didn't know until after when someone said 'do you know what you've just eaten?' in all honesty, i was quite relieved to find out it was dog and not something like rat. it tasted like really cheap, stringy stewing steak - wasn't that bad but my tummy gurgled for a few days. chicken feet are nasty - just skin & gristle. ate kangaroo in oz - very nice and lean. tried red ant soup in thailand - just soup really with bits in.
i lived in hong kong for 5 years and they do eat dog there - they'd be unlikely to serve it to gwailos (westerners) tho. what happens to the dogs prior to killing is quite horrendous - they're apparently beaten in order to get adrenalin thru their system which is meant to make the meat softer... not nice

 

[spanglechick]

i think i'd eat any animal, as a principle - in that, I eat cows and pigs and hens and lambs etc - so it would be a bit odd not to.

I even eat animals I would like to keep as a pet, like duck.

But I wouldn't eat dog. My overwhelming issue with dogs, their smell and their residue etc, means that the idea of eating them is just the peak of mankiness for me.

 

[tarannau]

This is where I got my chicken foot soup from today.

How did you find the soup? Red bean and foot or something else?

That shop can be a little patchy at times, but they're capable of some very good food. Between that and 'Lick Fingers' for the best fresh stuff.

There's a bit of a tradition of many cultures, including West Indians, of eating marrow from bones. The sounds of my genteel mum (think Trevor McDonald in accent and manner) crunching and sucking chicken bones never ceases to amaze me a little.

 

[frogwoman]

yeah i've heard that too

poor doggies

it's the same with bullfighting/baiting - it's meant to make the meat taste better.

Just chicken foot with dumplings & some veg. They are doing the red bean & foot one on Sunday I think.

I'd have it again if it was strained to keep the feet well away from me!! The actual soup it's self was really nice & spicey.

Bones- yuk!

 

[zenazena]

i forgot .. i also had some soup in indonesia with a chicken head floating in it!!! god, i've eaten some pretty manky stuff... still, i'd rather eat all the above again than kfc or mcshite

 

[Structaural]

I know what you mean.


Wasn't the reasons for most domestication to do with a combination of protection, pack carriers and food. eg. early man would use wolves for protection and then eat them when the food ran out - same with horses, geese etc. (probably not cows - 'go git 'em Daisy'). In fact didn't geese as guard'birds' predate dogs in England. Or am I talking out of my arse? *goes googling*

 

[kyser_soze]

I'd eat dog, for sure. Hell, I've eaten ostrich, kangaroo, rat, sheeps eyes, deep fired crickets and locusts, alligator and horse...
