BoxedTofu Comments: Would You rather Eat a Cat, or a Dog?

  • miyuki · 1 year ago
    instead of eating a ferret, a dog, or a cat... i would eat koichi. lmao
  • Aeryxia · 1 year ago
    Oh yeah! Eat Koichi!!! FTW!
  • 8Dhi · 1 year ago
    Dog.

    It IS a Filipino thing *_*
  • koichi · 1 year ago
    Totally
  • mich · 1 year ago
    Koichi is Filipino??

    I could never eat a cat. I love them too much. It'd be like eating a baby. And dog would probably taste gross. But ferret I could handle. The only ferret I ever knew liked to run away and make a mess on the stairs.

    I've actually eaten dog before in China (stone pot style), and I think it tasted OK. Weird--obviously--since it's not a familiar taste, and because I was imagining my aunt's pet shih tzu. It had a lot of flavor, and the only qualm I had about it, was that it was sort of tough to chew.

    I haven't eaten cat, but my mom has. I should ask her opinion later on.

    For the poll, I voted for ferret since no one in my family has eaten one of those yet.

    Who eats cats?! Did she have some kitty soup or something?
  • Mizuu · 1 year ago
    A cat. Because if a mother wants to gross a child here in Poland sometimes when it doesn't eat its veggies or something, then she comes up with "Chinese kids eat cats" line. In many articles when they mention weird stuff people eat outside the Europe they always mention cats for Chinese people. Just out of the sheer curiosity why do people here are so obsessed with Chinese eating cats (and rats, btw) I would like to go there and try that. You think that the guy with gun would sponsor a little trip to China?
  • ghindo · 1 year ago
    A cat. Definitely. I love dogs too much to eat one, and for some reason, I would think that a cat would have more tender meat.
  • koichi · 1 year ago
    Really? I suppose you could cook it like a turkey, too, which would be neat. Thanksgiving Cat. mm.
  • Tofugu_Erin · 1 year ago
    Cats are more lean, though. Unless you get that fat cat on Shimura Zoo I showed you about a bazillion times. I bet that fat cat would taste like pork.
  • Aelith · 1 year ago
    i've dissected a cat--and the meat would be like richer rabbit meat. i think dog would be too tender...
  • WOTDsctoo · 1 year ago
    Dog.

    But, that's only because I'm allergic to cats...
    As far as I know, I'm only allergic to cat dander...but don't want to take the chance with cat meat.
    And as for ferrets...I try not to eat things that scurry...or something. >.>
  • Krazy_KC · 1 year ago
    I would choose dog also, not because I like cats more, but for some of the same reasons Koichi has. They do have more meat (depending on the breed) and in some cultures Cats are viewed as sacred beings, so you wouldn't want to eat them. I know this might sound a little stereo-typical, but I know some Koreans that have eaten dog, and they really enjoyed it. So who's up for some stir fried Chow!!!
  • guesa · 1 year ago
    You know what's funny...when I saw the title I was like "pft dog for sure."
    Then you said that bit about being Filipino.
    ...then I realized that I am Filipino.
    Then I laughed heartily.

    Plus, cats are just too sassy. I'd be afraid of absorbing too much sass and getting in trouble because of it.
  • marissa · 1 year ago
    i think a cat would be better
  • <3Okami<3 · 1 year ago
    A Cat... I HATE CATS. LOL. Well, I don't hate them, but oh well. I think maybe you're onto something with the whole 'dogs taste better because they are better!'
  • Hannah · 1 year ago
    I'd have to say dog. I like cats too much to eat them, and from what I know of ferrets, they seem like they'd be pretty greasy and gross. Also, dogs are more traditional as food.
  • JinxME13 · 1 year ago
    sadly enough... Dog.
    Even though I love dogs more then cats.
    Cats and ferrets are just too furry.
    Most Dogs aren't but lots of cats are.
    And if a good percent of cats chock on their own hair.
    I know I would.
    Plus, since cats eat their own hair, then thats twice the hair since the hair is still in their system.
  • koichi · 1 year ago
    I'm pretty sure you'd skin all of them first, though.
    but yeah, dogs ftw
  • JinxME13 · 1 year ago
    True, but cats will still have hair balls in their system o_o
  • The_Meganator · 1 year ago
    I think I would nibble on all three. Put them in a salad or something. Maybe a stew! :P
    No, actually, I would pick the dog. They seem like they would taste better because they have more meat. They might taste good with a little A1 steak sauce!
  • Viet · 1 year ago
    Really depends on how they are prepared. BBQ? Stew? Soup? Deepfried?
  • Viet · 1 year ago
    Oh what.. You can't eat the Welsh Corgi puppy.
  • Fitz · 1 year ago
    Those corgis are the best, just need some Jamaican jerk seasoning. But if the ferret has cancer, then its a mercy killing.
  • ajaysie · 1 year ago
    I think a dog would taste better. Well actually, anything taste great if you prepare it right. But the fact that there is more meat on the dog, so you would only have to eat one. If you choose the cat or ferret and they said something like you have to eat until you are full, then you have to skin another one and keep going. Also a friend of mine told me dog meet is stringy while cat meat is tuff. I personally think if the meat is stringy then it would take less effort to chew it and if it is horrible since it is so stringy i could swallow it faster without tasting it for too long.
  • Rimka · 1 year ago
    I will definitely have to go with dog on this one, although the idea of a ferret on a hot-dog bun amuses the heck out of me. What would you call that anyway? a hot-ferret? a ferret-dog?
  • mmnessa · 1 year ago
    I'm thinking size-wise. Ferrets are smaller than cats and dogs, right?
  • Aranka · 1 year ago
    I'd have to go with the dog, since I'm allergic to the other two choices.
    Which - I'm pretty sure - would kill me if not prepared well. And judging by the gun-holding guy (Sorry Koichi xD), they wouldn't be well done.
    So yeah =)
  • Crow · 1 year ago
    i would rather eat a ferret than a cat or dog for one thing cats spit up fur balls and less meat next reason why not the dog well they always eat there own stuff....yeah.....and are cool animals so now u must be askin why the ferret i know it doesn't have alot of meat and stuff for one they are really annoying and don't really get big so you save less time on eating it instead of eating a whole cat or dog and the last reason i guess there is but i can't think of one so in the end i would rather eat the ferret
  • Mike · 1 year ago
    well.. if you have ever seen the patriot the guy says "a dog is a fine meal" and im gonna take his word on it seeing as eaten it and (his character not the actual actor whos name I forgot and will remember after I post this) he gets major cool points with me cuase in the movie he kills a bunch of british ppl and helped establish america thats why i voted dog.
  • DeeLeigh · 1 year ago
    I have to go with one of the least popular and say "Cat"...
    First, I like dogs WAY more than cats. Second, there are far more uses for a dog than a cat...and really that's all there is to it...A dog would help me live longer than a cat if it ever came to that...

    No one has ever heard of a killer cat (the cat from 'Pet Cemetery' NOT included), right?!?
  • M Ridhwan · 1 year ago
    I chose Ferret. I think they're easier to eat than dogs and cats...considering that they are smaller in size. Hmm, ferret sausages...

    But I'll never eat them. I definitely can't handle the taste.

    LOL. You sound more like a Russian...
  • Chimiko · 1 year ago
    You do sound Russian.

    Great job. That was pretty funny. My mom walked in the room when you were doing your "gun-to-the-head" part XD..
  • Casey · 1 year ago
    I would totally eat a dog, but not becuase i like them more. Cats are too cute and small to eat.

    Besides, cats have all that litter box crap on them.
  • Nymei · 1 year ago
    I can't possibly bring myself to eat a cat or a dog... so... I guess I would eat a ferret just because I've never thought they were cute.
  • hamusando_chan · 1 year ago
    i'm half filipino and eating dogs is part of the culture
    i've never eaten a dog but my i think my mom has
    and my grandpa definitely has lol
  • Fredy · 1 year ago
    I'd go for... the natto. :D
    Okay maybe a dog if I had to choose. It does look like it has more meat. Cat's just don't look appetizing. I'm not a cat fan.
    I read over Erin's old natto post. It makes a lot more sense now after having it. :P
  • pizulka · 1 year ago
    Errr... all of them? =D
  • Julia · 1 year ago
    Eating either dogs or cats or any other animal is really a bad karma. It's not that hard to be a vegetarian and not be a part of killing the animals. But if u eat somebody u'll be eaten the same way in future. And it doesn't matter whether somebody believes this or not, that's the law of nature. People pls stop eating ur brothers and sisters that simply have another kinda body! They suffer and so will u... :(
  • Joe · 1 year ago
    A dog.

    I have cat's and catching a ferret would be too hard i think.
  • Ulti~ · 1 year ago
    Did you mean eat the whole thing like intestines and alll... I would only eat the part that I eat in other animals... i dunno where steak comes from... but ribs... Thigh area.... if its not eating the whole thing I'd eat a cat...
    whole thing would be a ferret.
  • Rin · 1 year ago
    I'm allergic to cats (probably only the dander, but still)
    And ferrets smell funny.
    So, dogs it is ^^;;;
  • japanesethan · 1 year ago
    I voted dog because I also think they would go good with terryokky (that was spelled so wrong) which is my favorite when i went to alaska last week had some at this amazing chinese (wow wat is that terryoki at a (i spelled it right that time) chinese reastraunt i think it was like a chapanese place , weird. so ok back to the point i would probably also if i didnt eat the dog the ferret just so it would die does that make me a bad person. and im am going to be making a video blog soon so check that out . email me at ethansjames12@yahoo.com not .net , .net is for losers
  • lalala · 1 year ago
    it depends if the dog is a chihuahua or like a pitbull or somthing lol
  • little_bee · 1 year ago
    Eat em all, rotating sample platter style, with various dipping agents in the middle, and cheese cake for dessert. ^-^
