Surely they'd sell more extra lean lamb mince than reindeer? YES, NO ?

I don't know about you but there are times when it's that time of evening and you yearn for a fish finger sarnie or some cheese and crackers but I have never been half way through a film and turned to my better half saying ' ooooo I just fancy a moose leg don't you?'..... It's just not British or Normal is It ?

I still say deer jerky is the best jerky ever...I can have an entire deer made into jerky and snack me way to bliss...

They're not exactly native to the UK and why is it any worse than eating venison? We feed horses to our dogs and cows to themselves. We wear skinned cows on our feet shave sheep so we can wear their fleece - some people even skin sheep and wear them as coats - Just make sure the reindeer aren't from the radioactive herds.

I was very surprised to learn, while in the Navy and visiting The Philippians, that I had been eating dog meat for a week and I loved the taste.

I've heard that in China it's relatively common in some parts to find cats hanging upside down in markets, still alive, waiting to be purchased. They are skinned alive after they're purchased.

I appreciate the replies, but if you're going to criticize members for thread drift, you may want to be sure to remain blameless in the interim. Just a suggestion. A good way to try and help a thread remain strictly on topic is to remain on topic yourself. Anyway, I enjoy reading the majority of your posts.
