Yes,how tactful of them to take dog meat off of the menu while the rest of the world is looking on. It's official and not baloney. You've got to be really hungry to do this. Common, this isn't culture shock-I know the difference between a domesticated critter that's sweet and loveable and some damn cow. How long do we have to cow tow to these heathens? Stop buying their crap now!Anyone gonna miss Dog on the Olympic menu?Banned by the Chinese while we visit.?
Dietary habits vary with culture. Get used to it. It is not for us to say what they eat, as it in no way interferes with us. To answer your original question, that would be a "yes". People in and around Beijing and Giuzhou province (particularly the Korean population) will miss this part of their normal diet. They are being inconvenienced because some have not taken the time to educate themselves about Asian culture. They are not eating cute cuddly house pets. These animals are bred for the purpose of food, just like cattle, poultry etc.. Also, you have it backwards. They are currently cow-towing to the western consumer by removing these menu items.
Stop buying their stuff? I agree, but you don't have to convince me. You may have a difficult time convincing people to buy consumer electronics for 2X what they now cost, because they were produced elsewhere. The computer you wrote your question from was probably produced in Dongguan province (Guangzhou, Shenzen perhaps).
Too bad we're millions if not billions of dollar in debt to them and that they could choose to request that we pay it now but since we can't, they could just declare war on us Americans and we'll be pretty much screwed.
That's also pretty ignorant to think that all Chinese eat dog. If you didn't know, they're not the only culture that does. Also, only the really poor do, so I have no clue where you're getting you're information.Anyone gonna miss Dog on the Olympic menu?Banned by the Chinese while we visit.?
What is your question? I think it is fine if different countries want to eat dog or cat meat. Pigs have been proven to be more intelligent than dogs and it is acceptable for Westerners to eat pork.
