@Pfuzylogic: Eating dog is not strange. That's a very commonly eaten food in my culture, and most of Pacific Asia.

Was your dog meat thoroughly beaten?

@BlueMetalChick: I could list a few more if you like but other cultures find them normal i.e. Octopus salad and squid rings and conch

@Jackaloftheazuresand: I thought it was very tender. Hard to find dog in the Philippines since most looked pretty starved in 1980.

@Pfuzylogic: Octopus is so wonderfully tasty but I refuse to eat it often because of how wonderfully intelligent they are as animals. And so I reserve eating octopus only to certain special occasions like my birthday or certain holidays.

@BlueMetalChick: You always impress me with your sensibility. I had it once as a salad and several times with sushi.

@Pfuzylogic: I will only eat it raw. Cooked octopus to me tastes like vinyl. Same with squid, I only like my squid raw.

@BlueMetalChick: I ate my conch cooked and yeah it was tough to chew.
My mom cooked a bunch of small squid in a casserole that she found as a "bargain". It was like eating cooked rubber bands 😂

@Pfuzylogic: Oh dude, trust me, nobody knows how to make conch like I do. I can make it raw, I can make it fried, I can saute or grill or pan sear it with oil. I spent eight months living in Papeete in Tahiti, and I worked at the most popular seafood shack on the island, called Bailey's. I was a diver, which meant it was my job to ride out into the Pacific on a rowboat and dive into the ocean to collect various shellfish from the seafloor, such as clams, mussels, and oysters. But conch was my fucking specialty. I didn't use any scuba equipment or anything like that. All I needed was a pair of swim trunks and a top, a diving knife, and a basket, and I could make a seafood platter to rival any chef you can name.

@BlueMetalChick: it would've been nice to cook mine I was in Puerto Rico and teaching radar for the Navy at Roosevelt Roads. I knew somebody just rushed that and didn't take their time to cook it right.
