As much as it disgusts me personally, I can't fault people who like to (by necessity or preference) eat animals that aren't typical for Western based cultures.
We raise and slaughter a significant number of animals and not every one is raised and killed in a humane way.
I would feel safe in assuming that slaughter houses in China, whether you are a pig, chicken, lamb, goat or cow are not ideal places to be.
Cats and Dogs are abundant and breed easily. I can understand how they can become a food source.
But my god...
This festival is human hubris at it's worst.
I sure hope that this is the beginning of the end for it.
