The Chinese from Canton region are known for eating just about everything. There is a saying there, "A Cantonese would eat anything with four legs except a table. Anything that flies except an airplane." Alot of the Chinese in Chinatown came from this region Cheesy
Many Asians eat cats and dogs. As for rats, maybe during a famine. One can't be too selective when starving and there are no government food stamps (big government in fact caused the famines).
One time on a Chinese message board, a FOB Chinese posted a message asking where could he buy dog to eat in America. The flame war that erupted was most entertaining.
