Combating the dog meat trade in Korea
Americans can be so arrogant. Why do so many of our citizens feel the need to reform the cultures of people living in other countries? It would serve them right if this backfired and people in the USA decided that dog meat was something that should be legalized. Even better would be if restaurants started featuring dog meat dishes... "You can get all the dog meat you want at Alice's restaurant..." SING IT WITH ME!

CactusHugger: I don't see anything wrong with eating dog. I would definitely try some if it were available and I might even partake of dog meat regularly if I found it tasty. Moral crusaders are annoying. Hopefully it backfires on them!

"Dog meat" search goes to Asian restaurants? :yup:
Next time you're in a Korean or Chinese restaurant ask for the secret menu!

My neighbors have a noisy dog that barks all the time. I wish they'd wok that stupid beast! Maybe I should purchase a wok for them and suggest they use it on their dog. Maybe then they'd figure out that their dog is a neighborhood menace. LOL

recluse: Maybe you can get a Wok The Dog cookbook to go with the wok. Otherwise, make a call to an Asian restaurant. They're always looking for fresh meat! hahahahahaha

Cockroach milk may be a new food trend
No thanks! This is not only weird. It's "udderly" disgusting!

I only watched the video to find out how they milk cockroaches and was sadly disappointed.
Make Trona great again!

Probably the entire body is emulsified and some chemical or centrifugal separation process is used to isolate the white substance. If this product becomes commercially available, expect a bunch of prank videos on YouTube where people are tricked into eating this product.

What is causing the vegan takeover?
I'm not going vegan anytime soon, but I do like to eat healthy food. As for the environmental impact of raising animals, that's been known for decades. Way back in the early 1970s a book called "Diet for a Small Planet" told the full story.
