Dog Meat - Delicacy in The Northeast

By Sinlung

A saying in Northeast goes, ‘If you’ve haven’t tasted Dogs meat, you aren’t man enough.’ Dog meat, a delicacy among the many tribes of Northeast India eaten openly in large amount. Though dog meat is eaten in large extend in, dogs are mainly imported from neighboring Assam.

Everyone has their own perception about Dogs and Dog meat, some people would die for dogs like the the SPCA and Recue Ink, however some people especially in Northeast India would pay any price to have the meat.

Maybe its what make us humans and we choose to be vegetarians  or non-vegetarians, dogs or snake eaters. I don’t think anything should be imposed, as this has been practiced for hundreds of years even before all HYPED organizations were born.

To get a more here is a normal working day in the dog meat market:

  2. I've stopped eating it nearly 20 years back not because its gross but because it makes my body too hot after eating.

    I think if you're living in cooler climate, it'll suit you. I'm sure if the Nordic or Icelandic nations taste Dog meat, they'll not only love it - it will keep their body warm.
