I am glad to see that Dog eating in Asia is becoming taboo.

Hot dogs may be even more popular in the Orient than they are here.

“Dogs, cows, whats the difference.”

Yeah, but when is the last time you heard about a cow taking a bullet for a human? If something is loyal enough to die for us, maybe the least we can do is not eat them.

Don’t worry. These were grain-fed free-range dogs.

Bob Levi reminds me that the recent story about the three-legged chicken naturally provides a segue into the three-legged pig story.


So the man notices a three-legged pig in the farmyard and mentions to the farmer, "I see you also raise three-legged pigs."

"Nope," replies the farmer, "That there pig is a family pet and he's really smart. We've taught him all kinds of tricks, like `Roll Over,' `Sit' and `Fetch.' As to that last trick, ah kin be sittin' on our front pouch and when the weekly newspaper comes, ah jest tells the pig to `Fetch' and he goes gits the paper and brings it to me."

"Wow!" exclaims the man. "That pig sure is smart."

"Not only is he smart, but he's somethin' of a hero," the farmer tells him.

"What do you mean a `hero?'" asks the man.

"Well," says the farmer. "That there pig, being the family pet, sleeps at the foot of our bed. One night when we were all sleepin', a fire breaks out in our farmhouse. The pig started squealin' and fussin' and wakes us all up so we were able to git out of the house."

"That's truly astounding," says the man. "It's unbelievable."

"But you ain't heard the whole story," the farmer replies. "We all git out of the fire that night except my baby girl. That wonderful pig went back in the burning farmhouse and dragged the little one to safety and saved her life."

"And the pig lost his leg because it was burned in the fire?" asks the man.

"Well, not exactly," answered the farmer. "Ya' see, a pig like that, one that is so smart, so heroic, so valuable. You don't eat a pig like that all at once!

a way to ease buyers' worry that the meat may be refrigerator-preserved

So eating dogs is just fine, but for God's sake don't put the meat in a refrigerator!

Retards.

Such suburban livestock might become popular in the USA before long. If oil goes low enough, and the US dollar high enough, most of the US beef could be traded to east Asia in exchange for more debt for employees of the various levels of government here.

“Its’s our tradition, which the government has no right to ban”, one villager said.

Sure, go tell that to your Chinese government. But in this case I agree with them— don't eat your dog!

There are big St. Bernard farms in China. Makes me sad.

I’ve heard that stories of cat eating are exaggerated.

Fido is the yummy treat in the Orient.
