RE: The tragedy of a dog going missing in Vietnam

in ASEAN HIVE COMMUNITY19 hours ago

Just in case if you're wondering, I am a Chinese descendants. Here's a little history of how doggo became our food was way before written language being created.

《周礼》和《左传》中,将猪、牛、羊、马、鸡、狗并称为“六畜”

Sorry had to bring this up so I can explain to you thoroughly. The food our Chinese race has recorded is always been Pig, cow, lamb, horse, chicken and dog, 6 type of land grown meat in general. Whenever the Chinese having an in official banquet, these 6 type of meat are to prepared.

However, when dog meat are to be listed on the menu, they don't call it dog meat, instead they call it "fragrant meat", similar to early Korean peninsular (in general the entire north and south Korea, earlier called Chosôn Pando), “dog meat” are seen to be more vulgar. So, instead of calling it "dog meat", the Chinese called it "fragrant meat", the Korean called it "sweet meat" 🤣

No I'm not promoting, I'm just bringing you some historical facts that how these ended up on a dinning table.
