why is it considered questionable to eat dog meat bred and raised just for eating?
>>22150420corean eat cat
>>22150420Cultural norms. Same reason Americans are horrified by the European practice of eating horses.
>>22150420it's hilarious how hard korea is trying to suck americas dick trying to appeal to the west instead of trying to establish themselves as their own nation.
isn't carnivore meat in general kind of bad?
>>22150430That's what I've heard, but I think dogs are technically omnivores and people seem to like pork well enough.
>>22150429only rural retards eat dog there
>>22150420Because its barbaricItd the the same if u did it with lions, monkeys, reptiles, etc
>>22150429Is eating dogs that big a deal for you
>>22150428Québec and some eastern Canadian provinces also have a horse meat demand. Guess who we buy it from... Americans may act horrified but wave a wad of cash and all the sudden it's all fine and dandy
>>22150506PETA is a joke to us
>>22150428But 1 horse yields a lot of meat. You would need to kill like15-20 dogs to get the same amount of meat you would get out of 1 horse.
>>22150420they're carnivore-leaning omnivores that eat their own shitthey don't taste good, because they're carnivoresthe meat is toughthey are man's best friendthere's cheaper and easier and less cruel forms of animal protein
>>22150428I think you'll be horrified to know about your mom's cultural practice of regularly eating my cock.
It's just because dogs are pet animals
This feels like a pol bait threadAnd i wish those would stay on pol. It’s a fast moving board, it’s probably more entertaining over there anyway
>>22150420not questionable, just stupid.dog's work, cow's don't.
>>22150540I disagree it is a fair culinary/cultural question. I have ridden and cared for horses but I still eat horse meat. Also not being a dog lover myself I wouldn't really care about eating one. I would however feel bad eating cat meat but I wouldn't like start puking or something if I ate it and someone told me oh you just had cat tail or something.
>>22150579It’s a cultural question that triggers most of the western cultures. Perfect rage bait thread disguised as on topic
>>2215054499.9% of dogs do not work
>>22150420Because humans feel closer to some animals than others based on things like friendliness, loyalty, and cuteness.Horsemeat is supposed to be delicious, but it's frowned upon in the USA because of show ponies or some shit.Dogs evolved to want to be around humans though, and they're the most popular pet. I can understand why we don't eat them. I couldn't eat my good little boy. But I also know they're really the same as wolves and I'd eat wolf meat I guess if it was tasty. I hate cats so I'd eat them too. Depends on if the meat is good.
>>22150620My dog protects the house 24/7. If a burglar came by his yipping and jumping would melt the burglar's heart and he'd instead rob someone else.
>>22150645Or the burglar steals your little dog too, and gives it to his buddy who raises fighting dogs for use as a "training aid".
Dogs exist as a species because they've been bred to be companions for humans. Humans form attachments to other humansThey can form them to inamimate objects and farm animals too. Theres lots of stories of kids being in disbelief someone would eat their pet pig, or you specifically avoid giving animals names if you plan to eat them.Then you have dogs as a friendly animals thats been bred to be abnormally friendly, non-aggressive and work as a part of human pack hierarchy. They're not just kept outside and given treats for doing guard duty, they're kept inside and follow humans instructions and entertain them, people find joy of having a dog around, having a dog is a part of raising a kid who learns responsibility by looking after a pet. You need to hop over big barriers to consider that animal as acceptable thing to eat. In 1st world it'd be closest thing you can get to cannibalism as you can without eating humans. You wouldnt be in calorie deficit, eating the dog would be done out of entertainment rather than necessity. It's not an animal designed to have good tasting meat, its not fed for that either. Theres no wild dogs in cities in 1st world, you cant just grab a dog to eat. You'd have to steal someones family member and basically everyone would want that person to be locked up and medicated.Only places that eat dogs were culturally tumultuous places with terrible living conditions, the governemnt wasnt capable enough to prevent wild animals lingering around cities, periods of starvation werent that uncommon in their lives, animal rights were nonexistent.
>>22150540>it’s probably more entertaining over there anywayIt's really not, it's the same 6-7 threads posted over and over and over.
>>22150724>Dogs exist as a species because they've been bred to be companions for humans.Yes, companions for HUMANS. Not bugs
>>22150640>I'd eat wolf meat I guess if it was tasty.its generally not recommended to eat the top of the food chain
>>22150428Horses are an outside barnyard animal. Dogs are an indoor pet animal. It's not the same.
>>22150740if you eat it, it is not the top of the food chain anymore
>>22150420Cause dogs can't actually be raised for eating. Ya know, carnivores and all that.Claims to the contrary are flat out lies made up by chinks.
>>22150841If they feed meat dogs dead koreans and then they eat the meat dogs is that cannibalism?
>>22150420Because dogs were bred to be companions and protectors for people. Subhumans can't into this concept.
>>22150420I bet it tastes like shit, i don't see the point.>>22150428Anti horse meat thing is actually because of Christianity, it was considered pagan.
>>22150533>and less cruel forms of animal proteinuh buddy I don't think so. Torturing a chicken or a cow is not less cruel, unless you're talking abut eating bugs in which case shalom.
>>22150745What are shepard dogs
>>22150579Damn thats a different kind of evil now i eat meat well I have never tried horse but i could never fucking imagine myself eating it if i had personally raised and cared for horses or any animal for that matter especially if got close too one and loved it. No serisouly how do you ride a horse and form a bond and then turn around and eat its corpse talk about being a void.
>>22150640>because of show ponies or some shitno, dummy.it's because a horse can work, a cow can't.
>>22150620irrelevant to potential.
>>22150857This is the reason. Dogs are companion animals due to parallel evolution across so many millennia that our mutual origins predate human civilization. Due to this, eating dog is adjacent to cannibalism.
>>22151055Flimsy. Eating a kept animal not bred for livestock during times of economic deprivation is not the same as doing the same as a matter of regular cultural practice.
>>22151076wrong
>>22150591Most people who have backpacked through SEA have had dog at least once, knowingly or unknowingly.>>22151055No it doesn't. It's like steak but different. It also makes for a great sashimi. >>22151057I had turtle jerky once. Kind of tasted like serrano ham or something but more exotic.
>>22150523The same is true of a chicken. Somehow you don't see protests to ban chicken consumption
>>22150724I agree with most of what you're saying but>Theres no wild dogs in cities in 1st world, you cant just grab a dog to eat. You'd have to steal someones family memberThere are strays everywhere in shelters that get put down because nobody wants them.
>>22151083Maybe it's a location issue for you. I'm Belgian and I never felt it tasted dry and stringy. I suppose it's a bit leaner in general but I never felt it tasted dry. Maybe it's the cooking method? I generally go for rare/medium rare with red meat.
The answers range between the sentimental and the practical.Most obviously, people adore dogs and it's not normalized, so it's seen as an act of aggression to a cute creature.More practically, it's inefficient and a poor use of money- there's only so big a dog will grow, the amount of meat you can get off one will never be great, before even getting into quality etc. You're not getting milk or eggs while you're waiting for them to fatten up. Hell, they're energetic, they're not gonna fatten up that readily. Meanwhile, the dog actually has its worth while alive- ratting, guarding, companionship, all the hits. Is the pittance of shitty meat you're getting worth the cost of losing your combined home security/pest control? These are more historical concerns, but contribute to the norm we have now. Replace them with more modern concerns (the ballache of having to put up with the wife's reaction to you killing the dog, or having to explain to the kids, or the rest of the people in town treating you like a monster etc) if you'd like.
>>22150420I donate to animal charities and feed stray dogs but i look down on people who feed the homeless and donate to human charitiesI really have no idea what goes in my head
>>22151245That dog isn't gonna trade milkbones for heroin
>>22151245To me that's not normal but I suppose there's loads of people who will donate to any useless charity as long as it's not homeless people. >or human charity You sound like a Travis Bickle type of guy. What is your form of employment anon?
>>22150420People should just be left to eat whatever they want.First they came for the dog meat, and I said nothing, because I was not a dog meat eater.Then they came for the horse meat, and I said nothing, because I did not eat horse.Then they came for the beef, the pork, and the chicken...And now we're all Breatharians, staring directly into the sun, trying to survive on pure photosynthesis.
It's famine/starvation food one step above cannibalism.
>>22150420I'd fucking eat it. I'll eat people too if I needed it. I come first.
>>22150420They have been genetically bred to be our friends for tens of thousands of years. Same with cats. You don’t eat your friends.
>>22151941So have pigs. And they're just as intelligent as dogs. Thread is full of sheltered babyskins who've never even seen a pig up close once in their lives.>>22150420I think there should be a law which requires people to raise and butcher an animal at least once in their lives. Preferably as a requirement for graduating from high school.
>>22151968Pigs are intelligent and often horribly mistreated but we still don't have quite the same bond with them as we do dogs.
>>22150841>Cause dogs can't actually be raised for eating. Ya know, carnivores and all that.Yikes, you sweet summer child. My dogs eat a vegan diet and are very, very happy. This site is cancer.
>>22152115Nice bait>>22151132Chickens are retarded. They eat each other and themselves sometimes. Cows are also dumb as fuck. Pigs are selfish assholes who wouldn't think twice about eating you if you pass out in their pen. That's why they're eatenDogs aren't supposed to be eaten because they're smart and loyal
>>22151061Americans have always been averse to eating horse because it's seen as low quality or just "bad meat" for ooga booga reasons. It's not a matter of ethics. It's just seen as gross.
>>22152138what's the horse riding culture in europe? i'd imagine there's a lot of ethics here in the us behind it too considering how many people ride them and treat them as family
>>22152152keeping a horse as a pet is something only like the top 10% of income earners in the US can even afford to do. I've only met 1 person in my 32 year life that had a horse that was strictly a pet or leisure animal and they were a multi income high net worth household. farmers don't count because farmers generally don't value the lives of their animals at all and wouldn't contribute to any negative zeitgeist of eating them. it's literally just seen as taboo because the meat is "bad." People would have no ethical concerns about feeding horse to their dog. They don't care about the animal being eaten, they just care about eating it themselves.
>>22152152Europe is too densely populated to ride horses mostly. I mean it does happen but mostly in like village roads and stuff. The forest in my town has solo horse riders sometimes which is sort of neat.
>>22150420Dog cute. Honestly all animal cute and much sad when think about where meat come from. :(
>>22150420Never eat carnivorous animals.
DOGMEAT FREE!KOREA IS COMING!
>>22150420People are aware that dogs have an internal world with hopes, fears, and desires. As humans our gift of sapience allows us to perceive this even in other species. Traditionally western culture has prized the companionship and labor of dogs, cats, horses, etcetera. Over the period of their domestication these animals have consistently demonstrated their unique personalities and a sort of intangible yet apparent value that comes along with them. There are people, who even in spite of this cultural background, cannot grasp that the animal who lives with them is in some way valuable, but this is usually due to low intelligence or disordered thought. In pre-modern times this is complicated by necessity and scarcity, an element largely irrelevant in the cultures which take issue with the eating of certain types of meat, anyways, I digress. The question arises that if we can recognize this in dogs, and dogs are necessarily fairly close in intelligence to a cow or pig, why do we only take issue with dog meat? The answer is that if people were ever to be made aware of the internal world of livestock animals, they would, within a few generations of consistent exposure, become disgusted at the thought of eating them. Most western societies, therefore, structure themselves to keep this reality dutifully tucked away from the general population. This is done by assigning the raising/eventual slaughter of these animals to a class of people whom, on account of their lower numbers, isolated living, and varied individual dispositions, can more or less acquaint themselves with the idea of slaughtering animals. They bear a heavy burden, and often have a sense of pride or believe they have arrived at a greater understanding of the nature of the world for being given this task.
there is nothing wrong with eating dogs, prove me wrong without resorting to the usual flimsy moralfag arguments.
>>22155095The meat is too stringy.
>>22155106only if you cook it wrong.
>>22150428I'd eat horse I've heard it's very good
>>22150429Yeah, like the japs eating dolphin and whales
>>22150420I love eating dog meat. Well, more like dog juice I guess. Still, plenty of good protein in it.
>>22150422This fr fr
eating canids is barbaric and neanderthaldogs have been our companions for 16000 years
>>22151968pigs are livestock, you literal homo habilis
I don't have a problem with people eating dogs if they treat them well and slaughter them in a fast fashion. Animal abuse should be a death sentence if proper evidence exists.
>>22157836those dog get better treated than the shit that goes on in Amish puppy mills
>>22150724>Theres lots of stories of CITY kids being in disbelief someone would eat their pet pig, or you specifically avoid giving animals names if you plan to eat them.fixed that for you.Any kid that grew up on a farm knew what's-what from the get go and probably named their pigs things like 'Bacon' and 'Spare Ribs'.
>>22157862I went to school with a pig farmer's son.I still remember him proudly telling me how he used a bucket to hit the pigs on their head when they try looking out of the barn because he couldn't find the shovel like it's the greatest achievement in his life.
>>22151052>it's because a horse can work, a cow can't.lol lmao, cityboy.
>>22150420They aren't livestock or a game animal, so it's weirdDogs, horses and cats all have jobs and other purposes and stuff, so people think it's odd to eat themSimple as
>people think symbolically and associate dogs with love and friendship?????Not everyone is autistic like you. Eating dogs is illegal and it should be. Because I said so.
>>22158070Europeans eat horses.
Guess I better get a zipair flight to Narita then Seoul in September because every time I try to make dog I use European ingredients and it tastes terrible. I hope to learn more when I go over there soon. Shame on those who try to disrupt others lives and eliminate a historic food resource ingrained intheir culture. Fuck this terrible backwards multiculturalism.
>>22159093Yes, and we (Americans) think it's weird
>>22150506Do the Amish sell it?
>>22159093Horses aren't carnivores and it isn't normalized
>>22159360Indians think it's weird to eat beefArabs think it's weird to eat pork
this might sound crazy but I regret not finding Bosintang (dog meat soup) while I was in Koreapurely out of academic curiosity + being able to say I ate dog and cross that off the list of animals to eat
>>22160666Yes, but we're better
>>22150428I don’t think people really care about horses as much as dogs since every other person owns a dog.
>>22151132You do but lets be honest here. Dogs are mans best friend and chickens are not.
>>22150429Xi…
>>22150420It make no sense to eat dog meat. Dog are carnivore, they eat meat, you feed meat to get meat, it's retarded inefficient.
nooooooo not the hecking puppernot the doggerino furbabyanything but my sweet widdle pwincesseat me instead
>>22162128this but unironically
>>22162128You are unworthy of the loyalty of a dog and if you ever experienced it you would probably just think it's sycophantism, and, being who you are, that's all it would really be.
dog meat tastes like shit (and piss)
>>22150724>Dogs exist as a species because they've been bred to be companions for humansRight, so we are free to do whatever the fuck we want with them. If we want to start breeding them to be eaten by humans then that's no different from domesticating them in the first place.
>>22162128I love when people ignore the developmental issues of their child and then when their 18 years are of barely being a parent are up they just hand em off to society for the rest of us to deal with. It's so awesome!
>>22162342all meat tastes like shit and piss when it's not properly regulated.
>>22155797based dogsucker

>>22155797
>>22150724>Theres lots of stories of kids being in disbelief someone would eat their pet pig, or you specifically avoid giving animals names if you plan to eat them.Spotted the city slicker. You might tell young kids that their pet piggy went to another farm or something like that, but by like age 10 the kids know what's up and are either okay with it or they have a little vegetarian phase that lasts for a month until they get back to their senses
