[Hockeyguy15]

Franks and beans!

[Senator Clay Davis]

I would say he's nuts, but he's obviously lacking those now. At least it was his own junk I suppose...

[krynski]

I'm grossed out. So damn grossed out. That is disgusting on soooo many levels. This.........Ugh. I can't say anymore.

[MickMcGeough]

Shouldn't this be in Food & Entertainment?

Da fuq?

I am not shocked one bit.

People of Asian descent will pretty much eat anything. Just recently a Chinese national was caught in an airport in Malaysia or Thailand (can't remember which) with 3 smoked fetuses. I refuse to link to it or search it at work, because it is so damn sick.

Add to that the general torture of eating still live Animals in Asia this doesn't shock me at all. Cannibalism is pretty much the next step isn't it?

There are almost daily videos on liveleak.com of these types of practices abroad. There is some definite sickness in humanity going on right now. Each and every one of the people that did this should be exposed, because I think when you cross the line and eat human, there is without a doubt in my mind, a component of insanity ingrained in you.

Sick, sick animals.

[Lobotroth]

Served with a cream sauce?

[HPLovecraft]

I wonder if the people that ate it believed in that whole eat testes, gain fertility thing? Seems you hear a lot of that stuff coming from Asia with animals.

You have to understand the cultural side of it though. This is primarily a dish served in Hong Kong, and is usually with fish. It's all about retaining the freshest ingredients, and such a way to serve it is, while gross to most Westerners, a common and normal meal in China. Even in Japan I was served (and I ate) the sushi of a live fish. It was an odd experience but keep in mind that the fish is mostly dead, it's really just nerve endings twitching; the body and brain has been paralyzed for the most part.

The dangers of moral relativism.

Sick, sick animals.

I agree with you many of the practices in parts of asia regarding human and animal life is inhumane/substandard. However, with regards to the part about, "People of Asian descent will pretty much eat anything" doesn't apply to Tibetans. This is not in response to you in particular, simply moreso for general information to be put out to the topic readers. Tibetans are also Asian. A large portion of Tibetans are Vegetarian/vegan in accordance with their Buddhist principles (pre-1959 Tibet saw 1/4 of the male population in monkhood, even today 10% of Tibetan exiles are monks, and it is highly encouraged, but not mandatory for monks to eat very little meat or become vegetarian/vegan). This is not to say all Tibetans are vegans/vegetarians, but percentage wise, it is much greater than other ethnic groups. Also, amongst the Tibetans that do eat meat, it is a physical necessity as the Tibetan plateau has the highest elevation in the world. More to the point though, Tibetans generally stick to only eating large animals. The reason many Tibetans do not eat seafood or small animals, is because they are trying to reduce to the number of lives they consume for the benefit of the animal and the accumulation of karmic merit. In actuality, Tibetans are allowed to eat seafood, it is not restricted, but it is very difficult for one to have a full stomach from one shrimp, whereas a yak or cow can feed many people for a long time. Moreover, in Tibetan society, the lowest occupation one can have is that of a butcher. From a social viewpoint, butcher's tend to be ostracized and people do not want to marry into families that are related to butchers.

For some people, like His Holiness the Dalai Lama, he tried to be vegetarian back in his twenties and early thirties, however he developed jaundice and was informed by doctors to add meat to his diet. What His Holiness does to lessen the amount of meat consumption is manifold. Over the past few years, he has been asking all Tibetans to stop using fur unnecessarily, and Tibetans from all over exile and in Tibet itself began burning any fur they had in large ceremonies, and took an oath not to use fur clothing. Even amidst protests against the Chinese government, Tibetans in many videos clandestinely sent abroad are seen throwing fur into bonfires, to show their admiration and solidarity with His Holiness the Dalai Lama.This is particularly emphatic, because Tibetans are a largely nomadic country. In fact, when the Communists invaded Tibet in 1959, Lhasa was the only city in the whole country with 35,000 as the population (very town-like by western standards). Additionally, in official Chinese documents, it has been noted over 2,000,000 nomads have been reorganized into collectives to form small towns in just the past 10 years, so one can see that hunting and gathering was a big part of their lifestyle before.
On a personal level, H.H. the Dalai Lama does not eat after 12pm lunch, unless he is on tour (be it a diplomatic mission/religious), which is his contribution to reducing meat consumption as the Tibetan leader.
I simply wanted to relay a small story, that not all people of Asian decent are the same in their treatment of animals and dietary consumption. There are good and bad Tibetans as well, but by and large, Tibetans have always sought a peaceful, holistic and balanced approach to anything related to animal, plant and human life, this is one thing I am certain of. Tibetans definitely lag behind the rest of Asia materially, but spiritually Tibetans are very advanced in their thought, and probably why most Westerners find Tibet a little different from the rest of Asia.

Hey, that's great but what does it have to do with eating penises?

[TangerZ]

Yea, on second thought, it could have been more succinct, and could have put in a thought or two about the main topic instead....just wanted to elaborate on the Asian people comment...
