...what's wrong with eating the flesh of carnivores? People eat bear meat (bear is an omnivore) but what's wrong with, say, dog, cat or whatever? Other cultures eat it without even thinking twice about it.
Why do Americans by and large hate carnivore meat? (Oh, and "IN before someone mentions the 'eating coyote' thread.") |
da fuck? |

I've heard it said to never eat anything a dog won't eat––dogs supposedly will not eat bear meat. Don't know the truth of it, though.
Some Fwench ecotourists chowed down on some raw/rare bear meat while traversing the Canadian arctic, they came down with trichinosis, IIRC. |

I've eaten bear and dog and both were pretty damn good. When I was a kid my dogs used to eat bear scraps all the time.
Like the poster above I think the reason we don't eat meat eaters very often is that you really can't farm raise them. Western culture also has issuses with eating "cute" animals. |

WTF. Over. |

I read a Field & Stream article many years ago; the subject was "grizzly bear meat." The author claimed that ridge top bear meat was nasty, from eating carrion; the bear meat from stream-fed canyons was sweet, because they eat lots of fish. Actually, you shouldn't eat anything a PIG won't eat. Pigs' digestive systems are so similar to ours, they are used for lab tests to see if an edible item can be eaten by humans. |

One of my favorite Far Sides showed 3 wolves looking over a pig sty and one of them saying, "I say we do it and trichonosis be damned!" |
