Bon Appétit Sports Fans

BEIJING (Reuters) - Beijing has asked hotels and restaurants in the city to take dog meat off the menu for the duration of next month's Olympics and September's Paralympics. The directive "advocated" that all restaurants serving dog suspend it during the Olympics but made no mention of the many popular establishments with donkey on the menu. End

Anyone going to Communist China to pour more money into their overflowing coffers that will enable the Communists to bid as much as they please for oil, build up their military, and enhance their infrastructure should be fed dog and donkey meat, and not necessarily healthy dog and donkey meat. I can assure all those who do go to Communist China that they will be eating dog and donkey regardless of this public announcement.

The truth is dog and donkey is a step up from what some Americans are eating in a couple of restaurant chains with locations in Las Angles, Las Vegas, New York, Miami, and San Francisco. Rats and squirrels cost very little to raise and rats can be bought for as little as $0.12 a piece in New York and Miami. Female rats cycle every 3-4 days and they can conceive immediately after giving birth as they will go into estrus at that time. There are several rat/squirrel ranches that raise, kill, package and ship the meat. Bon appétit…or as they say in Communist China, "Sihk faahn."
