So, the dogs are resting easy in Jinhua City, but the cat on the corner is watching it’s back! Quaint it ain’t, if you ask me, and while we’re on that passing things along topic senility, imbicility, lunacy, and other ‘ilities’ are passed along too.įrankly, this festival going away will make people happier than the end of panty-hose! Some of the locals felt that since it was passed from generation to generation, it should remain as part of the culture. Not every one is happy that the festival is ending. And I’m guessin’ that when little Yang Min and Mong Toy came home from school and Spot was missing from the dog house and that chicken leg looked awfully familiar, the shit hit the fan!

As many as 10,ooo dogs would be slaughtered each year at the festival and served UP in many ways.Īpparently, as the world becomes more and more PC, and the Chinese realize they aren’t they only people on earth, some of the locals have said “Just say no to Fido” and called for a halt to the festival.ĭoggie dining is – thank goodness – not as big in China as it used to be, but the Chinese Astronauts did eat dog while in space!

To celebrate the invasion, the Mings whipped UP some Mu Shu Mutt and served it around town. Supposedly, a Ming leader was trying to invade Jinhua and killed all the dogs so that their barking wouldn’t alert the city fathers. The tradition started the Ming dynasty…you know, the one with all the pretty vases…gross and grace all in one ruling dynasty. The leading nabobs of Jinhau City, China have decided to put down the ginsu knives and end the six hundred year old tradition of cooking and eating dogs. They say that it s beef or fish or pork But it s purrin there on my fork. That’s the opening line from an article this past week on “The Week”, an online publication.Īnd people get mad at me because I won’t eat in a Chinese restaurant where I can’t see the kitchen. There s a cat in the kettle at the Peking Moon I think I gotta stop eatin there at noon. “As dog ownership increases in China, many view the annual dog-eating festival as cruel and unusual.” Cool song though.0 Flares Twitter 0 Facebook 0 Filament.io 0 Flares × When he finally gets out of prison, he returns to her grave and builds a cage with her bones.
