I suppose I understand why they’d do that (not wanting to offend the sensibilities of westerners), but, what’s the point of going to another country and never sample its food. If you don’t like it, you can always go to McDs. I presume there are McDs in China. I don’t think I could trust a country (its leaders/gov’t) that would so willingly to subsume their own culture to avoid possible offense.
oh, and I’d definitely try it. I try everything new I can. I am at the TOP of the food chain. Right now, anyway. When I’m hiking backwoods in Yellowstone- I could be at the bottom very suddenly.
I had the chance to try some when I was in Korea a couple of years ago…it’s not too bad actually. It’s considered a delicacy there so it’s not in every restaurant you walk into.
So it is dark meat.
Or red meat rather. That clears up something I have always pondered, but never asked about.
The tail is a nice touch…
… I’d try it
…… don’t hate it before you understand it
Roll over! Fetch!
Yeah…I’d probably eat it too.
If it’s not too spicy and is low in carbs, I’d give it a chew.
It’s pretty tasty, really. Not hard to find anywhere in China or Hong Kong. Same with rats.
Gnarly!!!
Is it true that China forbade its restaurants, w/in a given vicinity of the Olympic City to cook dog or list it on their menus?
you nasty fuckers can have my share
i’d rather try cat
China has behavior classes for the citizens of Beijing right before the Olympics. Anything is possible nyokki.

The Lewis and Clark Expedition preferred dog over salmon.

Stuff gave me the runs… BAD. Once was enough.

Got the chance to try dog on a trip through Central America. Not too bad but not as good as cat.
My neighbors have a particularly offensive mutt, so I might just be trying this dish within the next week or so.
Actually meat is luxury in China. They’re happy If they can have chicken once a year.
