Real subtle racism, OP. *two thumbs up*

Anyways, it's sad to watch it, but boys will be boys, and food will be food.

In some countries and cultures certain breeds of dogs are raised on farms and slaughtered for their meat. This may be as an alternative source of meat or for specific medicinal benefits attributed to various parts of a dog.



History
CHINA
Although the Chinese were the first to domesticate the dog and keep them as pets, dog meat has been a source of food in China from at least the time of Confucius, and possibly even before. Ancient writings from the Zhou Dynasty referred to the 'three beasts' (which were bred for food), including pig, goat, and dog. Mencius, the philosopher, recommended dog as the tastiest of all meats.

In addition, the dog is at the top of food-chain and is thus more expensive than most other meat choices. Also many Chinese believe that dog meat has too strong a medicinal effect to be consumed regularly. Relatively concentrated dog meat consumption areas in China are in the northeast, south and southwestern areas.

INDONESIA
In Indonesia, eating dog meat is usually associated with people from the Batak Toba culture, who cook a traditional dish named saksang that is like a dog-meat stew. The Minahasa are also well-known for eating dog, which is considered a festive dish and usually reserved for special occasions like weddings and Christmas. However dogs are not consumed by the Muslim population of Indonesia.

KOREA
Gaegogi (also, Kaegogi) literally means "dog meat" in Korean. Gaegogi, however, is often mistaken as the term for Korean soup made from dog meat, bosintang . It is made from a specific breed of dog that differs from those breeds that are kept as pets. Iit is generally considered a medicinal dish (either to improve male virility or to combat the heat in summer).

MEXICO
Dogs were historically bred for their meat by the Aztecs. Hernán Cortés reported that when he arrived in Tenochtitlan in 1519, "small gelded dogs which they breed for eating" were among the goods sold in the city markets. These dogs were called itzcuintlis, and were similar to the modern Mexican Hairless Dog. They were often pictured on pre-Columbian Mexican pottery.
PIHILLIPINES
It is reported from time to time in Philippine newspapers, the eating of dog meat is not uncommon in the Philippines. [13] An organization working in the Philippines estimates that 500,000 dogs are killed annually in the Philippine Islands for human consumption.

POLYNESIA
Dogs were historically eaten in Tahiti and other islands of Polynesia at the time of first European contact.

SWITZERLAND
According to the November 21, 1996 edition of the Rheintaler Bote, a Swiss newspaper covering the Rhine Valley area, the Swiss rural cantons of Appenzell and St. Gallen are known to have had a tradition of eating dogs, curing dog meat into jerky and sausages, as well as using the lard for medicinal purposes. Switzerland, as a whole, has no prohibition on the consumption of dog meat.

TAIWAN
Dog meat in Taiwan means "fragrant/savory meat." Dog meat has never been commonplace in Taiwan, but it is particularly eaten in the winter months, especially black dogs, which are believed to help retain body warmth. It is still possible to find dog meat on some restaurant menus, but this is becoming increasingly rare.

VIETNAM
While it is not considered a daily meat, dog meat is eaten throughout Vietnam. It is more popular in the North than in the South. To many Northerners, dog meat is a popular, if relatively expensive, dinnertime restaurant meal. The term thịt chó, Vietnamese for 'dog meat', is used widely in the North. However, places selling dog meat in the South tend not to use the term, using instead "thịt cầy" (Chow Chow meat) or other word plays to conceal the meat's origin.

In Nhật Tân Street, Tây Hồ District, Hanoi, many restaurants serve dog meat, often imitating each other. Groups of male customers, seated on mats, will spend their evenings sharing plates of dog meat and drinking beer. Dog meat is supposed to raise the libido and is sometimes considered unsuitable for women; in other words, eating dog meat serves as a male bonding exercise. Nevertheless, it is not uncommon for women to eat dog meat.

The consumption of dog meat can be part of a ritual usually occurring toward the end of the lunar month for reasons of astrology and luck. Restaurants which mainly exist to serve dog meat may only open for the last half of the lunar month.

Popular ways of preparing dog meat include stewing or grilling cubes or patties of meat. Dogs' feet are particularly popular.

In urban areas of the north, increasing incomes have sparked a search for new and more exotic recipes. There are about seven dishes featuring dog meat, and they often include the head, feet and internal organs.

Fresh or dried like meat jerky?




And as much as I don't want to be serious, but majority of Chinese people don't believe it to be true... Then again, while I was in China, my cousin treated us to eat Wolf... I didn't eat it though ;_;

here cat meat lol

http://www.kittybeef.com/recipes.php


Cat meat is meat derived from cats. It is eaten in southern China, and Vietnam where some people consider it a good warming food during winter months.

The cat's stomach and intestines are eaten, as well as the thighs, which are turned into meatballs. The head and the rest of the animal are thrown away.

Cat meat is also consumed as a folk remedy for headaches in Korea.

Cat meat is also eaten in Eastern Europe and other asian countries. We cater to the premium end of this market.




here recipe
Beer Roasted Cat

1 cat cut into roast
1 can of ****ing Cream of Mushroom soup
1 cube of beef bouillon
1 clove of garlic
1 Fine Irish Stout, like Guinness

Cover and soak cat roast in salt water for 24 hours. Drain water and then cover and soak in beer for 6 hours. Drain and place in crock pot with your cans of soup. Add a clove of garlic, and a cube of beef bouillon. If you start to slow cook your cat in the morning with your George Foreman Cooker (or it's ilk), you'll have finely cooked feline in time for supper.

If a slow cooker is not available, a cat can be baked at 350 degrees for 2-3 hours in a conventional oven and still come out pretty good. Beer Roasted Cat is fantastic served with mashed potatoes, collard greens, and fresh, homemade egg rolls. When planning a full meal just remember- cat is a course best served hot!

Cat may not be the most glamorous, or tastiest of game meats, but with a little thought and preparation, Baked Cat can make the belly of the persnicketiest diner glow with home baked goodness.

Vietnamese people dont eat cats. I would know.

I have 2 things to say:
First, I always find the "stay on your turf and leave me mine" principle not only boring to no end, also stupid. If we see it as 2 extremes, there would be either, ordering every other person what to do and what to stop doing 24/7, or just agreeing with everything that might happen all the time.

Typical example for A: Enforcing ones views on someone else.
Typical example for B: Looking away from obstruction fo human rights.

I see the problem with people being afraid of getting some view enforced upon them, not with those who are in favor of having economic ties to countries that for example torture and keep political prisoners.

The point is: We live in one world. We are all practically neighbors. We affect each other. We can not exist without taking part in the global community that is humanity.
People will come and act on what they see rather sooner than later. They will want you to talk with them, they will want you to agree to a dialogue and they will want you to address any issue that bothers them.

Mostly this "I want to keep my original culture" is only protectionism anyways;
People already know that what they do is superficial and unfit and looking into it, would quickly reveal it.
That is the number one reason why people refuse to talk. Not because there is a right and and offense of this right taking place. Rather because are not up to challenging themselves one bit.

The second one is about the videos:
I personally wouldn't want to eat meat from an animal brought to death this way.

To butcher an animal correctly is crucial for the quality of the meat, however adding to this, it's crucial to keep a minimum of hygiene and to not spoil the meat by torturing the animal.

This is true for whatever kind of culture there is. The slings which are used in the video to strangle a dog were never meant for this.

Generations some years older than ours (which are not as removed, or backwards as people in question today are) would strongly reject to any animal being killed in such an unfit way. This is, because it stands for a couple of things that go hand in hand with it:
- The meat is never properly examined. It won't be discernible as tainted when it is already prepared; You would not be able to know if the dog even made it alive to the place of slaughter or if you are eating a half a week old carrion corpse of a diseased dog.
- the meat will be prepared in the same fashion as the animal was treated. Now the idea of this "dish" already makes me sick.
- People get endangered by using improper methods of handling any sort of livestock, or improper and unclean equipment, as well as working with tainted meat. You can die from cutting yourself with a knife used to cut up such meat, under these conditions, as such a cut has a high risk of blood poisoning.

Short spoken: Everyone suffers, the customer, the one who is responsible and the society who acts as bystanders, as it will have to clean up the mess in the end.

As food is somewhat important to the upkeep of society, this isn't a part of a "cultural eccentricity", that is just a grossly lacking practice.
It is barbaric.

Even the idea, of isolated cases (which would be far from reality), would be enough to leave a shocking impression.

@eating of cats and dogs in Eastern Europe:
Calling members of certain ethnicities in Eastern Europe "dog eaters" in the respective languages is roughly comparable in offensiveness as to call a black man a "******" (you know which word goes there).
It's not something that the majority will hang on to very fiercely, as part of their cultural inheritance, aside from their general situation being so bad, that they wouldn't see themselves as able to choose.

@Swizerland having zero legal objections to eating dogs:
I would not be certain about that. I actually know about a case in Austria, of a man being repeatedly arrested for trying to produce dog-lard. Legally no one was prepared for such a case, nor was the law intended to take care of it. He had to shut his "shed" down, it was a very unusual and odd "once every few hundred years" story anyways.

I said Vietnamese, not Chinese, smart one.

Also, dont generalize all asian cultures as "asian". Each country has a different culture.
