Subject: Re: Do u eat dogs?
Traditionally, Khmer people don't eat dog meat. Dogs were safe in
Cambodia. However, in the past decades, the influx of immigrants from Vietnam
and Vietnamese invading forces (North Vietnamese, South Vietnamese, Viet Cong,
etc..) have changed such a tradition.
Since the installation of Vietnamese backed government, many Cambodians have
learned more about Vietnamese culture and food and at the present time millions
of Vietnamese have been settling in Cambodia; therefore, dog meat is commonly
eaten in many Vietnamese communities in Cambodia. Copying from Vietnamese,
---some Cambodians do eat dog meat.YOUN+YOUN=CHOR CHINE SY SAKER..
YOUN+KHMER COMMUNIST=SOME CAMBODIANS=SYCHKER
KHMER+KHMER=KHMERS OTT CHERS SY CHKER,
A few people have told me that it's bad for Cambodia when more dogs are
missing; it the sign that more Vietnamese are now settling in. A strange
measurement, indeed, to measure Vietnamese illegal immigrants. They may be
right.

Vietnam
Dog meat is consumed in Vietnam to varying degrees of acceptability, though it
predominantly exists in the north. There are multiple dishes featuring dog
meat, and they often include the head, feet and internal organs. On Nhat Tan
Street, Tây Hồ District, Hanoi, many restaurants serve dog meat, often
imitating each other. Dog meat restaurants can be found throughout the country.
Groups of customers, usually male, seated on mats, will spend their evenings
sharing plates of dog meat and drinking alcohol. Dog meat is supposed to raise
the libido and is sometimes considered unsuitable for women; in other words,
eating dog meat can serve as a male bonding exercise. Nevertheless, it is not
uncommon for women to eat dog meat.[60] The consumption of dog meat can be part
of a ritual usually occurring toward the end of the lunar month for reasons of
astrology and luck. Restaurants which mainly exist to serve dog meat may only
open for the last half of the lunar
month.[61]
Types of dishes
In Vietnamese cuisine there are many ways to cook dog meat. Typically a chef
will choose one of seven ways to cook dog, collectively known as "cầy tơ 7 món".
* Thit cho hap - steamed dog meat
* Rua man - steamed dog in shrimp paste, rice flour and lemon grass
* Doi cho - dog sausage
* Gieng Me Mam Tom - Steamed dog in shrimp paste, ginger, spices and
rice vinegar
* Thit cho nuong - grilled dog meat
* Canh Xao Mang Cho - Bamboo shoots and dog bone marrow
* Cho Xao Sa Ot - Fried dog in lemon grass and chili

Around 450 to 500 Dogs are eaten Per Day in Phnom Penh
Sunday, September 07, 2008
A Phnom Penh vet said on Saturday that the eating of dog meat is
increasing. Around 450 or 500 dogs are bought every day without any
checking Phnom Penh City. Some of the dogs were stolen along home by
some naughty men to sell for 20 dollars per dog. Dog meat is not
checked, but pork and beef are demanded to test for virus. There is
RAVIR disease containing in dog meat that can be infectious seriously,
he added. The dog owners always complain about the loss of their dogs.
HAHAHA!
