It’s a smear article. I wouldn’t doubt that there are a few sickos in Switzerland who eat pets but if you changed the title to ‘Incest still practiced in Tennessee’ and based it on some sicko being arrested for molestation it would be about as fair to the reputation of the decent people of Tennessee as this one is to the Swiss. The title seems to imply that eating dogs and cats was once common, and it never was. Having a Swiss grandmother and as familiar as I am with the culture and recipes something like that would definitely have been notable because of the revulsion factor.
