801554	2009-08-17 10:55:00	Sick not really, did my Dad stop my pet lambs and hand reared pet pigs going to slaughter, did he **** I would eat human if they already dead and I wasnt and needed to survive. Probably draw the line at banging them on the head with a rock first to speed process up.	prefect (6291)

I agree that chucking a pet into the umu is somewhat disgusting. But you make a good point in my opinion. If we take the example where you are in an aircraft and it crashes into the side of a mountain and you are the only survivor would you eat the non survivors in order to survive yourself? You could possibly get away without food for a few days but water is a different story. Or people can just lie down and die anyway. This in the event they can't bring themselves to eat human flesh. Another point I would make is that an UMU is rather different to a BBQ. The two cooking methods are different.	Sweep (90)
801556	2009-08-17 11:24:00	Maybe its just me but I dont see any difference from cooking the dog in an umu or a bbq its just a heat source. Maybe I am a bit thick but I cant fathom out the difference.	prefect (6291)
801557	2009-08-17 11:28:00	Football teams stuck on mountains excepted there have been a number of cultures where cannibalism was practiced but for some reason has died out .... So if it's just a piece of meat at what point do you stop? A dog isn't a human end of story but many dogs have the intelligence of a two year old child. Also what about sticking a tasty dolphin on the spit or BBQ a whale (might need a 40 burner)	Ofthesea (14129)

Also what about sticking a tasty dolphin on the spit or BBQ a whale (might need a 40 burner) For most people, the line is drawn at your own species. It's the same reason why it's murder for killing a person, but not illegal to kill a pet lamb, for example. We put down animals (pets included) who misbehave, but we don't put down our kids if they misbehave.	somebody (208)

The tongan cooked the dog on a BBQ. When did the tongans start having BBQs as a cultural thing? "SPCA inspectors have removed the partially-charred body of a pet dog being cooked in a backyard barbecue. But they cannot prosecute anyone over its death because it had been killed "humanely"." So was it a BBQ or an UMU? Maori cooking may be similar in so far as an umu is cooking in a pit like hangi. A BBQ is more like western cooking I think. Both would be heat sources and I agree with you on that. Personally I would not eat a pet however cooked. I would prefer to eat your road kill like cyclists or those who use cell phones while driving.	Sweep (90)

We put down animals (pets included) who misbehave, but we don't put down our kids if they misbehave. They shoot horses do they not? Some people want to be put down for similar reasons and in some countries it may be legal. And there may be a debate on this. I have shot a dog once but I did not cook it after doing so. Some kids need putting down but I would prefer to do the Parents first.	Sweep (90)

801562	2009-08-17 15:21:00	Either some of you are vegetarians or dying of starvation because you think too much before you eat or born with a silver spoon or have never starved before. Just because you dont doesnt mean someone else wont. And prefect, the meat was in slices, cooked in spices with fried cabbage... much like an asian dish, it was frikin awesome! Theres only so long you can eat from ration packs!	rob_on_guitar (4196)
