"Funny" food offer (warning, may offend!)

[Honeycomb]

Once a week I go to a student's home to do private tutoring, and every time his mum waits with dinner for me. They always have really delicious dishes. And I love most of the Chinese food.
Today. Well.
They know I don't eat meat. But today they offered me ... dog. 
Yeah. It looked just like other meat, chopped up and stir-fried. I swear, I was really curious to try, and if I ate meat, I think I would have. 
I have seen the meat booths with the skinned ones, but I have never come close to being offered to eat it.
Just one of my interesting experiences.

[Eviecorn]

Oh wow ... I don't know what to say on that one, as a vegetarian and dog lover. 

[Rosencrantz]

Huh, kinda wish you had so I could ask what it tasted like!

[stopxmotion]

I'm curious to know what dog tastes like, but would never every try it! It would break my heart.

[Whippycorn]

I think I would have screamed. Eating dog would feel like cannibalism to me. My whippies are my babies.
And the conditions 'meat dogs' are kept in are appalling too. 

[True]

wow o___o i dunno i might have tried it, once you know, i like trying weird things once but id probably feel realllly bad D:

[kaoskat]

I wouldn't touch it even if I were starving.

[FlitterRose]

No offecing,but this sounds so sad  Like most of you,I wouldn't even touch that dog too

Like eating snails.For me,eating snails is just...weird

[Talismarr]

I've heard of the different cultures that eat dog, but I don't think I would want to try it. It'd be in the same category as eating horse! I wouldn't want to... I'll stick with beef, chicken, pork, etc

[Izrabeth]

I wouldn't touch it even if I were starving.

I second this. But I know that in some countries dog is eaten as well as other animals, it's just something that depends on where you are born and live. Here in Italy for example Horses and Rabbits are also food which I know is weird for other countries. And here also frogs are eaten (bleeeh, I will never do it LOL)

[melodys_angel]

That is an interesting offer. I would have felt sick inside but would politely decline.

[starrypawz]

I would have gone 'no thank you'

I have issues with eating dog because well in most places they aren't raised for/as meat. That and there's also the welfare side of things too when it comes to dog/cat meat.

[Aflame]

mmmmmmpler  that is all !

[xeevee]

Beijing is so different to South China, Honeycomb.  I never saw dog meat once when I was in China.  Or dogs in cages ready to be cooked or anything like that. 

It's weird they offered it to you if they knew you didn't eat meat.
