"A snake can eat as many as 400 rats a year and an owl 1,500," the
China Daily says, according to Reuters. "Snakes in the region have
been caught and exported to Guangdong in recent years and have ended
up on the dining table. It has become a lucrative business and
depleted the number of snakes... Owls have suffered the same fate."
You never know what you're going to get on the lazy susan... I ate a
couple of fried chicken feet without knowing it. Still, Owls? That's a
new one. I'm surprised the gov't allows it. Every school child knows
enough basic ecology to understand what a terrible idea it is to kill
the animals that hunt rats and mice. >> Stay informed about: Do it to China! Do it to China! Not us! |

The closer we all move to a vegetarian diet, the better off the world
would be. I know it's not easy, what with snake filet mignon being so
tasty. And mmm those deep fried owl wings at Hooters...

That is the most disgusting diet ever, worse than the Andes diet of
the Uruguayan Ruby team. The will to survive is amazing. I've often
wondered what I would do in similar circumstances: sadly, I suspect
there would be no heroic follow-up movie.
The PoW is Dieter Dengler? The movie is controversial, but I don't
know anything about his book.

Here is some news to improve your appetite:
Locked up in a prison camp with other prisoners, Americans and
Thais, he supplemented his diet of maggoty rice gruel with rats
and snakes fished out of the latrine and eaten raw.
