A RESTAURANT chain has sparked fury by serving up pizzas with a topping of FROGS LEGS. The Hopper contains eight limbs on a traditional base with capers and an anchovy sorbet.
The £17.95 dish has angered campaigners who slammed it as barbaric because frogs legs are amputated while they are still alive.
An Animal Aid spokeswoman urged people to boycott London chain Eco.
She said: The animals typically have their limbs hacked off while still alive, having been captured by the bucketload from the wild in countries like Indonesia.
I cannot believe people are so desperate to entertain their palates that they want to be part of this vicious and callous trade.

I like frog legs and I like pizza, but I can’t say I’d like a frog leg pizza.

Our local KFC sold deep fried frog legs back in the early sixties. I used to enjoy them until I bit into one that was only partially cooked. Tasted nothing like chicken. Puked like a man possessed. That was over forty years ago. Haven’t touched one since and never will.

I despise cruelty to any creature. Boiling a lobster or crab is an instant death. Chopping the legs off of a live frog is creulty. But the leftists lie about everything else; they’re probably lying about this, too.

Blue crab claws are typically harvested one at a time from live crabs. The crabs are released and the claws regenerate.
