Mmmmmmm....Roooooooooo

[Dodie]

So I guess you guys are vegetarians?

 

[dude_joel]

interesting point there natrix, where is the line?
i personally put the line at humainly killed, not endangered and not somebody elses pet.

Whats wrong with eating a dog?? it is dearer than beef in some countries. I draw the line at primates and endangered animals, but if it is clean meat, and esp if it's captive bred, I'll give it a go, if it tastes bad, I'll only eat it once. It's only peoples perception that makes you go errrr, if you were bought up eating dogs, you wouldn't think anything about it.

 

[mrmikk]

So , just out of interest then Bundy & mrmikk , what animal do you draw the line at ?
Badger , monkey , possum , weasle , llama , dingo etc ??
Seriously , where's the line?

I know where you're coming from, but mate I love my dog and I would do what ever was necessary to stop anyone doing him harm, do you know what I mean? That's where I am coming from.

I think the point is we live in the 21st century, and I accept not every country has living standards like ours, but in Australia, everyone has access to food, even the unemployed, we have a welfare system that is accessible, there is no need to butcher dogs to eat. Sign up with Centrelink if you're that hard up and you can survive and live like a human being, people don't have to act like damn Neanderthals.

Jason, in this country we DON'T eat dogs, if it is part of your culture that you have bought with you from OS and you don't like Australian values then go back to where you came from or accept and respect Aussie values and culture. I don't mean you as in you personally, I mean those that say it is part of their culture. It is NOT Aussie culture, people need to respect this country's values as we do when we go OS.

 

[junglepython2]

There are people who love their pet cows and sheep as well. As long as its captive bread and humanly killed I can't see a problem.

I am definitely not a vegetarian Dodie, far from it, I love my beef and chicken.

Some countries just eat dogs, has nothing to do with culture, they just prefer to eat it over such things as beef, sure dogs are reasonably intelligent animals, but so are pigs, but we don't hold them in such high regard because they arn't as pleasant to look at (but geez their **** tastes nice!), I don't hold it against anyone for not wanting to eat something, but animals are just meat of different flavours. Would you eat Croc?? if so, would you eat a snake or a goanna??

 

[cris]

If certain animals wernt supposed to be food then they wouldnt be made out of meat. If it tastes good and is legal its fair game regardless of which country you are in or from. If you dont think an animal should be used as food dont eat it, no point trying to push your beliefs onto others(unless they are gullable).

Different strokes for different folks brother.....

Just my opinion, I don't expect everyone to agree. My dog is like my best mate, so you may understand my disgust at the prospect of slaughtering and eating my mate, that's where I am coming from. Mate, I'd go pretty ballistic at someone trying to hurt my mate.

Enough said from me on this one, over & out.

I Absolutely agree!

 

[PhilK]

Yes but you wouldn't be eating your own dog... If you bonded with a pig/cow/sheep/roo like you did your dog you wouldn't want to eat it either..

 

[FNQ_Snake]

Man, am I getting hungry!

:shock:

I get the feeling you're talking about anglo saxon christian values here not necessarilty 'Australian' right mrmikk ? or does 'Australian' to you mean only Anglo imported values ?

Who decides what "Aussie values and culture" are and where does it say we can't eat dogs? The culture cops? Last time I looked we had multiple cultures and their is no culture laws. Do we only eat fish and chips from a certain North Qld take away? Pigs are highly intelligent animals but who doesn't eat bacon (other my friends Mohamed and Max Weinstein)?

I personally enjoy munching poodle, is there anything wrong with that?

Roo tastes aweful IMO, there are so many better meats available, Lamb, Duck, Chicken, Pork, Beef, Rabbit, Turkey even Crocodile.. frig even goat tastes better. Sure you can dress it up with sauces and make it edible, but would be last on my list everytime, as a snake food though, it's A1, low fat / fur and blunter claws than kittens.

You may have not have it served up right. Needs a different style of cooking to most red meats, more like lamb as the French do it (just of red and raw but definitely on the pink side). It's a favourite on the barbie in our pineapple. Sounds like it may time for another cook up down Bikini Bottom?

 

[HoffOff]

Roo is th Best meat ever......

Snake saki mmmm.
Habu & Absente, I could drink that all night long.
