cliaz Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 (edited) Hopefully Vicky heard this too.... This dude we work with walked up to this Korean dude and pretty much went like this: Old dude: What you don't have any pets? Korean: Nah. Old dude: No Fish, Cats? Korean: Nope Old dude: No dog, either huh? Korean dude: Nope we don't have a dog. old dude: I know why you don't have a dog. you ate him, didn't you. that's why. I was like "Jesus that is the most racist thing i've ever heard that wasn't spoken behind someone's back" edit - the was him laughing at what he said, not me.

Puddy Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Wikipedia. Korea Dog meat Hangul: 개고기 NK: 단고기 Revised Romanization: Gaegogi NK: Dan(-)gogi McCune-Reischauer: Kaegogi NK: Tan'gogi Gaegogi literally means "dog meat" in Korean. Gaegogi, however, is often mistaken as the term for Korean soup made from dog meat, bosintang. It is made from a specific breed of dog that differs from those breeds that are kept as pets. The distaste felt by dog lovers, particularly from the West, with respect to eating dog has made this dish controversial in recent years. The consumption of dog meat has a long tradition in Korea. Dog bones were excavated in a neolithic settlement in Changnyeong, South Gyeongsang Province. One of the wall paintings in the Goguryeo tombs complex in South Hwangghae Province, a UNESCO World Heritage site which dates from 4th century AD, depicts a slaughtered dog in a storehouse. Today in Korea, a segment of the population use dog meat in medicinal summer soups and stews, and to avoid heat. Use of dogs for meat and the alleged methods of slaughter have generated friction between dog lovers, particularly Westerners, and people who eat dogs; the conflict occasionally breaks out as headline news. During the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, Korea's capital city, the South Korean government asked its citizens not to consume dog meat to avoid bad publicity during the games. Korean law technically prohibits dog meat[citation needed], but the laws are not enforced.[citation needed] The controversy surfaced again in 2001 when the 2002 FIFA World Cup soccer games were held jointly in South Korea and Japan.[16][17] The organizer of the games, under pressure from animal rights groups such as PETA, demanded that the Korean government re-address the issue, but little changed. All breeds of dogs are eaten and dog wranglers drive through the village streets asking for unwanted pet dogs. A typical Korean dog slaughterhouse could have dogs ranging from poodles to beagles to Korean Jindo dogs. Another part of the controversy stems from the methods of slaughter, which include beating to death by clubs (common in the countryside) and hanging (criminal offenses in Korea under the Animal Protection Act 1991[citation needed]), as well as electrocution. Dog meat is generally considered a medicinal dish (either to improve male virility[18] or to combat the heat in summer). Many Korean Buddhists consider eating dog an offense. Unlike beef, pork, or poultry, dog meat has no legal status as food in South Korea. There is an opinion in South Korea and abroad that dog meat should be legalized so that only authorized preparers can deal with the meat in more humane ways,[19][20] while others think eating dogs should be banned by law. During the FIFA World Cup, in the face of foreign pressure to ban the sale of dog meat, a group of prominent South Koreans wrote an open letter in support of dog-eating.[21] South Korea's top soccer official said that FIFA had no business interfering in his country's eating habits.[22] Supporters of dog-eating held rallies against FIFA[23] and launched a campaign to promote dog meat.[24][25][26] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiegie Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 He ignored him Well--I think that settles that. (For the record, I don't see any real difference between eating dogs and eating cows. If I were ever in a place where dogs comprised part of the people's diet, I wouldn't hesitate to join them in their meal.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detlef Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Well--I think that settles that. (For the record, I don't see any real difference between eating dogs and eating cows. If I were ever in a place where dogs comprised part of the people's diet, I wouldn't hesitate to join them in their meal.) I've eaten dog in China and did not like it one bit. Very poor quality meat IMO. Lost's of gristle and the meat itself was somewhat stringy. Thus, considering the fact that 1) I enjoy the company of living dogs and 2) I enjoy the taste of pigs, cows, chickens, lamb, and fish, I've decided that I'll pretty much stick to playing with dogs and eating the others.

TimC Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 The SO and I were talking about this last week during Jericho. They wanted to kick out some survivors they had taken in because they didn't have enough food to make it. I commented that they should eat the dead...I would. She was grossed out. I had no problem with that plane that crashed years ago and they ate the dead. You gotta do what ya gotta do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly agree. That's why I tried dog meat once despite the fact that I really like them as pets. Had it been completely delicious, I'd prolly deal with it and eat it again. The fact that it wasn't made my decision pretty easy. I know that, even if I liked pigs as pets, i could get past that in a heartbeat 'cause pork is about the tastiest thing in the world.
