Would you eat dog?

Cheers, thanks for the expananation, is it actually illegal in Britain, or just 'outside regulations' or somesuch?

No idea - I'd guess it was illegal but maybe they never got around to making a law against it.

I've never heard of anyone eating dog in Hong Kong itself - I guess it might happen in a few places but it's illegal and the authorities hand out some fairly tough sentences when people are caught eating dog meat.
well, gambling (with the exception of the Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club) is also illegal in Hong Kong but I can assure you that it happens widely. i have no need to lie to impress strangers on a forum... fireworks are also illegal in Hong Kong but everyone and his dog (pardon the pun) have them during chinese new year.

And no I wouldn't, but I don't eat meat anyway so not that surprising really. If I did go back to eating meat, I still wouldn't eat dog and wouldn't have a problem being that kind of fluffy-valued hypocrite.

Same here.

Although, if I ate meat, I'd probably try to eat free-range meat that had been killed humanely - and it doesn't sound like this poor dog was treated that way. Free-range, kinda, but a pretty inhumane killing.

I'd be worried about hanging around with someone who can treat another living creature like that.

The actual eating of dog as a normal meat product, I have no disagreement with; it's just not for me.

I would have thought that capturing, killing, skinning and cooking a dog would be more hassle and expense than just ordering in some more cheap meat.

What expense, one .22 long rifle round, and a couple of minutes to gut and skin the carcase.
 
there's a good little philosophical dilemma.

Family x, meat eaters, have a dog they care for and love. Eventually the dog dies. Whilst they are happy to eat animals, they would otherwise rather not see any additional 'needless' animal death. So, they cook up the dog, knowing that doing that will mean the chicken, say, they would have eaten, is spared. Logically, then, surely this makes them (slightly) more compassionate than the family next door who bury their dead pet?

Its a good one for debate. (I couldn't do it, but in that context I can't rationalise it.)

of course.
not only do chinese take-aways serve stray animals in their chow mein, they hunt them too. tis why you see so many chinese chefs running around the streets in the early hours armed with rifles and the latest nightscope technology.

Everyone? everyone...yeah right.
get your facts right.
if you want to eat dog, you have to cross the boarder into china.
my family are from HK. and i conclude that you're speaking shite.

if you did stay in HK, you probably hung around HK island, drank in mini-spain, fucked a few pros and generalised/stereotyped the chinese as you do here.

twat.
 
zenazena said:
my logic is that all of the above was more than likely fresh, i could see what it was (with the exception of the dog), it wasn't mechanically recovered, highly processed, covered in msg, salt, cheap fat and god knows what else. i can't see the logic in lying to yourself about what you are eating.

The point is that it needs to be processed to make it edible.

People have different opinions you know.

yes, and my opinion is that i'd rather eat soup with a chicken head in it than kfc - are you saying your opinion is the only one that counts?

bless you, if you get so angry that i mention that firecrackers are common place during chinese new year (which they are, at least where i lived, which was not hk island incidentally), where there's left to go when you're actually faced with a real problem? and how is that a 'nasty' generalisation? but i'm sure you're an expert cos your mummy told you. but see how you generalise other people in a particularly nasty way? you don't know anything about me, my race, my history, my experiences, my friends - i guess that probably makes you the twat...

apologies.

it was early. i misread your thread after responding to chymaera's.
i dashed out an inaccurate reply.

yeah...i scored a twat point.

I have NOT made a generalised comment about ALL takeaways.
(Jesus there are some anally retentive bastards on these forums).
 
So this quote:

Isn't a generalised comment meant to imply that dog and cat are regularly dished up in Britain's (Chinese) takeways? Why the fuck mention it then?

Fuck off Toby - it's bad enough you being a borderline racist cunt with the usual unwitty chinese stereotypes. But being a revisionist borderline cunt adds to the insult frankly, particularly when a piss weak example of restaurant in Moscow is given as some 'justification' for your latest dumbfuck comment on a UK based bulletin board.

Anally retentive? Perhaps it's more that I'm part Chinese and sick of twats like you making cheap, smartarse jibes...

Given the recent in depth investigative reporting into the meat industry in Britain that has been on the media in recent times, and the number of prosecutions, what meat your are eating from takeaways, roadside "roach coaches", and event catering is suspect, no matter what the race of the owner of the outlet. I did not mention ANY race in my original posting.
The searchers after racism where there isn't any did that.
 
C'mon then. Let's see a few successful prosecutions for UK restaurants serving up dogmeat and cat then Chymaera - obviously given that, in your view, anyone who has eaten takeaways in recent years 'must have eaten both cat and dog at least once' there musy be loads of evidence to sustain this view, right?

Or maybe, just maybe, you can actually engage your brain before rabbitting off your next load of insultingly laughable bollocks.

You do realise how a thread works don't you, with people trying to ensure that their contributions are in some way relevant or linked to the posts before? Besides, what other takeaways are you insinuating serve cat and dog - fish and chip shops? burger bars?

A friend of mine once said he ate a Chinese meal and found an alsatians tooth in it :D

I mean like huh? Did it have a label on said tooth saying "Once belonged to an alsatian" ??? So he was obviously talking bollocks.
 
I have just realised I would eat human meat before i eat dog.


even for me I think that something is a bit wrong there
 
Oh please. If I take out the word 'recent' out does the stupid assertion 'I would have thought anyone who has eaten takeaways for a number of years must have eaten both cat and dog at least once.' become any more likely or less bullshitworthy.

Fuck off Toby. This is the point where you should concede that you've been a bit of prat and fantasist (again), not come up with more mealy-mouthed bollocks.

Waiting for that apology and climbdown. Or are you honestly still claiming that folks eating takeaways over a few years 'must' have eaten dog and cat at least once?

You are not going to get an apology given the concerns about iffy meat and breaches of health regulations that have been the subject of much media coverage in recent years.
I am very wary of takeaways, "roach coach" roadside catering vehicles and event caterers precisely because of the problems. It was others here who insisted it is a racist issue. I didn't.
 
is it easier to catch a cat and turn it into a number 45 with fried rice or to go to the wholesalers and pick up a bag of diced chicken?



dog\cat hair I can see ending up in stuff though
 
Bollocks Chymaera. Concern over 'iffy' meat quality and 'breaches of health regulation' are in no way equivalent to demonstrating that most people who eat takeaways over a number of years 'must' have consumed cat and dog.

Stop being a ludicrous, lying numbskull and show some decency here by actually admitting that your comment was bollocks for once. Or show us some actual fucking proof or sources you big bullshit hound.
 
tarannau - urban myths bud. reminds me of those pre-60s tales of immigrants = disease. uncleanliness. and yes, they do eat rats and other unfavourable animals.

christ, having come from two generations of chinese cooks - you do get these stereotypes associated to the Take Away trade. i remember at school and at the counter, how people would joke about us cooking up their cat/dog/budgie/rat whatever. so bloody amusing. quarter of a century later, the shitty jokes are just the shame!

do you remember this? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1260861.stm

6 years later, still no apology for the unfounded claims!
