Even Mike Rowe bit the balls off a lamb with his teeth...how "back to basics" and "down to Earth" do you think you people are, anyway? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24036593 They really are pussies. They must all think that our meat just magically appears, nicely wrapped in the freezer section at the grocery store. Theres a true story of a Blonde woman, Shes trying to blockade a hunting party. She screams at the Hunter to stop killing Bambi and get his meat at the grocery store where no amimals are harmed True story... |

This video simply brings to mind all the videos we have seen similar to this. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23917036 This is a forum, after all, where people express their opinions. Maybe you were expecting a summary? oh this was just a mention of singular distaste...and not a summary being made upon the ENTIRE JAPANESE CULTURE. riiiiiight. Where did you glean that from, because it was from no post I made. I have only been talking about food while pondering on the difference in thinking that is so obvious by the remarks made here. |

It's like seeing an animal get hit on the road and going over and watch it go through it death thrawls, while at the same time taking a gnaw out of it's hind quarters. Very very morbid. Just ask the staff to pull the live tank close so you can watch where dinner came from. |

It's more a case of the squid probably tasting a little bland on its own like most any other fish and hence, the sauce. The dancing thing is just good visual product demonstration in a nation where "freshness" is regarded as the most important aspect of culinary appreciation. Not like us in North America who eat refined shit that doesn't decompose if left out in the open because even BACTERIA AVOID IT! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 24672198 United States 10/08/2012 12:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | the reasoning in this thread is for shit. it happens. you don't like it too bad. it's going to continue to happen. animals are eaten sometimes, many times alive by different cultures all around the world. you pose no solutions, in fact there are no solutions. you only raise awareness and that awareness is fruitless. harp on about how bad it is. harp on, harp on. harp on. until you are blue at the fingertips. nothing will change. not until all such practising cultures are wiped from the earth. but those means don't justify the ends in rational head. and more importantly the disgust is only vocal and lacking the needed logistics, or even the back bone to really act in any shape or fashion to bring such practises to an end. this is all just let's be pragmatic: shocking to see because you are not accustomed. what are you gonna do...ain't a god damned thing you can do about it. live and let live. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24672198 Well this is the thing. Whether for the 'freshness' aspect or visual display, it's definately cultural. People are just used to it I guess. Doesn't take away from the fact that most find it repulsive, but 'each to their own'. |

Reminds me of Baghdad Bob! is there a proposed solution or just another complaint anywhere in the near future? what do you hope to accomplish? come to terms with it yourself...that which you find distasteful and awful IS NOT GOING AWAY. Speak for yourself. As for me....China has a bad habit of gathering stray cats and dogs and treating them horribly, beating them and skinning them alive. The pelts often make their way to the US under different names. In one such case a business in my city (similiar to Pier One Imports) was selling animal figurines that I felt looked suspicious, I purchased one, had some tests run, and it turns out they were made of domestic dog and cat fur. The business, a large importer, were horrified. My story made nightly TV, and as such, the business stopped importing the figurines, customers were able to return theirs for a refund, and the business donated a large sum of money to international groups working to end the torture of cats and dogs in China. The money helped fund undercover agents getting film from withing China, that allowed the US to begin their own investigation of imports coming from China. It then parlayed into a feature on the news magazine show 60 minutes and the newsmagazine 48 Hours/with Dan Rather. The cruelty is still going on but it is much reduced, and in some cases even the Chinese people are now being proactive in keeping dogs and cats from being killed for food and fur. So...I think that it is ALWAYS a good thing to let others know what is going on, even if it's not going on in your own backyard. People CAN make a difference, IGNORANCE IS NOT BLISS. Ignore that stupid gangman style fuckheaded freak. |
