Is anyone on this forum brave enough to admit that dog or cat meat has made it into their stomach?

Is Dog not God backwards? How many animals in the world are as forgiving( similar to God) as dogs are.......unconditional love. Someone will pay for what they do!

man and I was going to order up a big ol plate of chow chow mien! Isn't the Olympics also supposed to showcase the best of all that the host country has to offer?

I kinda see this as a bummer, I mean if its something that is eaten in your country as a matter of course then it should be allowed to be eaten while foreigners are in country as well. What if someone was curious about having dog?

And yes I have actually eaten dog before, I was very young at the time, so I can't remember how it tasted. Hooray for omnivores!

The Orient seem to have a varied menu. Cat, rat, dog,hog,mice,rice,...no no Sam I am I do not like brown dog rice spam.....lol

Really, whats the difference if its a dog or a cow?

havent eaten cat or dog.. yet. I certainly wouldn't turn it down. I've eaten Guinea pig before. tastes like chicken.. there's just a lot less of it.
