Well i guess for me yes... but i was not aware of it. It happen when i was invited by a friend in his co-worker's party. When we are drinking booze the celebrant announce he has cooked a special meal for use... his wife serve it to use. He said it's just pork casserole. While eating i observe both of the b-day celebrant and his wife has different kind of smile in their faces. After we finish it he do the big reveal.... that we eaten was not pork but dog's meat.... wahhhhh! we all trow-up knowing we just eaten a dog... God curse him...because of that traumatic experience at 2 weeks i never eaten any meat... i almost become a vegetarian... but overcome it i guess.

wooow that was so harsh, I never and I wont eat a dog too. So sad you got a trauma from that, don't worry you can still eat fish, fruits and vegetables its more healthier than meats. :)
well I eaten exotic foods like goat (same as on your story my cousin tells me that that was a pork but its a goat), and a fertilized duck egg with a nearly developed embryo inside that is boiled and eaten in the shell (we called it balut in the Philippines)

I agree with you it was high in cholesterol that's why I don't eat penoy. And I also once eaten a frog, they tell me it was a chicken but well it taste like a chicken. haha thankfully it was a farm frog so its safe to eat. :)

Yeah, I have ever eaten dog meat. It's not a big deal.Don't you think the dog meat and pork are the same? In some places, some people even eat the cat meat.

Wow, dog meat? Those poor doggies 
And are you still friends with them? LOL just kidding.
I haven;t tried any exotic food and no, I have no desire to do so in the near future. Last year on our trip to Thailand, we were strolling at a night flea market and on top of clothes and other stuff they're also selling newly cooked worms, grasshoppers, an insect that looks like a roach, scorpions! My BIL dared me for 500 bucks to sample each one, even if it's just one a piece. I say keep you money bro, no way.

Well, I don't know if I have allergy or not, but I'm not about to go find out for sure haha!
Here in my country, exotic foods are usually those in the line of frogs, field mouse, snakes, and some beetles. And no, I'm not also planning to taste any, although lots of people I know swear that frog legs taste like chicken. Thanks, but I want the real chicken LOL!

well there is a lot of exotic foods in the country but i won't really dare eating any of those. but last time, i was at my friends place. her cousins and big brother gave us some "fried chicken" with some sour sauce something like that. we were like "hmmmm what did you do to the chicken? chopped them all up?" haha. but then it really tasted good. we finished everything and when we were done, they asked us if the "monitor lizard" tasted good. HAHAHAHAHH eeeeeewww! but well it's done, it tasted good anyway haha
