The day I heard about that (the 'tuna') is the day I stopped eating their 'meatball' subs.
Can you just imagine? Was probably eating dog. (Someone once placed horse meat before me and I said no thanks.)
Anybody ever eaten cod roe?
Yek.
I don't really understand the difference between dog, horse, or cow. If the taste could not be distinguished, I don't see why consuming the meat of one type of animal would be considered more or less ethical then consuming another type of animal.
Yeah, some of it goes back to clean and unclean with the Hebrews.
Unclean animals only had (have) one stomach and didn't digest their food well, supposedly making it less fit for human consumption.
A horse has a less complicated stomach and digestion than a cow (they used to go by how the hoof was and cud chewing).
I still won't eat ham cause pigs are so nasty, they were equated with dogs back then.
Some of it is cultural. But some things I think human nature tells you don't eat. Roaches, rats, snakes.
I don't like to eat bottom feeding fish, they're unclean as well. Wouldn't eat a vulture cause they're scavengers. If I was starving it would be different.
Pigeon and quail eggs are more 'clean' than chickens who scavenge and will eat almost anything. It's the easily fed and raised animals that are staples, bacon and chicken eggs.
Maybe ppl struggled to cook pork properly do lots of food poisonings?
The bible is full of warnings and they predate the hebrews
I'd much rather eat low grade horsemeat than soy filler.
The places you've really got to avoid are the independent Chinese restaurants. They will use anything as meat, even roadkill.
Gross, that's what I hear..
