I don't think it's a good idea to eat Spot, for the same reason you don't eat your pet rabbit. From that it doesn't follow that you can't eat an anonymous dog, preferably bought dead.

Not so, dogs are one of the animals that should never be eaten, irrespective of whether they were your pet or not.

Does all dog taste the same? I would have thought there would have been prime cuts and not so prime. In parts of the Philippines dog ears are a popular breakfast dish. But that seems to me to be quite a lot of dog that gets wasted.

I spent some time in Kiribati several years ago, where dogs were eaten not infrequently. Unlucky strays were generally bludgeoned to death with a rock, skinned, washed in seawater, gutted and roasted on a spit over an open fire. Nearly the whole animal was eaten and what remained was thrown away, usually to be picked on by...stray dogs. I'm not ashamed to admit that I partook in a dog and chilli sauce bap while I was there, which really wasn't too bad, although I'd add a bit less sauce next time.

eating dogs should NOT be allowed.

An interesting statement, firstly who is to "allow" or "dis-allow" the eating of dog, or any other animal for that matter? surely it is a matter of personal and cultural choice what you consume, not something that is dictated from one society to another.
Secondly, why? Eating an omnivore like a dog is a little more risky than a herbivore, but we eat pigs in this country. True you are more likely to get parasites from an omnivore, hence the proscription in certain religions and societies, but the risk is small if you cook it properly.
I believe grey squirrel is quite tasty and while not common, it is quite often eaten in Portugal, and by a friend of mine, another Omnivore.

You have obviously never owned a dog.

Hi,
actually I grew up with a dog, from 5 to 18 years old, I was very fond of it and was upset when It had to be put down. However I still would have no problem with eating dog provided I knew it was clean, eating a stray I would have problems with on the grounds I stated before about omnivores carrying parasites. I would not eat a family pet, and in my case that would be very unlikley as I have no wish to keep a dog or cat as a pet but as food I see few issues.
Best regrads

Had them in Scotland for years

Bring 'em to the Texas State Fair. We'll deep fry anything. Started with corn dogs and moved on to such delights as fried butter, fried CocaCola, fried bubblegum, fried beer, fried salsa, fried ice cream, fried pineapple upside down cake....the list goes on and on and on and your arteries clang shut from across the city.

Is CocaCola chicken anything like Beer Can Chicken?

Not really. Along with other things the coca cola chicken doesn't use the can as a stuffing. Coca cola chicken also has a decidedly sweeter taste although to really get the sweet you need Pepsi.

Personally the best was original Dr.Pepper chicken where the chicken marinated in the soda overnight.


Remember people when making these soda and or beer chickens to use metal cans. Use the cans. Don't use the bottles. Beer bottles are glass and usually break with the heat and the soda bottles are plastic which destroys an otherwise good meal.

I seem to be alive.


Soon I will be putting together another ghastly concoction which I will eat. It won't be ghastly in taste, just in description of what is in it. Garlic, butter, peppers, onions, cheese and fresh green peas mixed together with pasta.

I'd skip the peas and add some chopped beef, oregano and basil, but for the rest it sounds much like what I like to eat.
