Can we please keep this thread only about eating whales... at least give us this one single thread to talk about saving room for some whale meat, rather than saving the whales.

Thanks!

Sorry, but issues regarding eating/saving whales...or rather the road to endangering another species will go hand in hand and probably worsen as Japan sets about killing more whales in the future. This is a dangerous path we're heading, both environmentally and morally. It makes Japan gov't look evil again, out to willfully destroy life where it does not need to. Why force whale meat upon society, when most people don't even have taste for whale meat anymore? Why introduce another species to be slaughtered when we don't need to? Are people in Japan starving again as in WWII? Or are Japanese gov't too rich and bored, that they must have everything like spoiled children?

I do realise that different cultures have different views on what is right and wrong but i believe that it is wrong to eat whales and dolphins because of the level of their intelligence,i dont really like the idea of eating sentient beings

whaling is not needed for Japanese people. There are food that bring from all over the world. We Japanese must not hurt the poeple who help us. It is the global rule,isn't it? We live on other food now, and we throw away large amount of food that can be eaten. Before we call for whaling, we have a lot of things to do, for example we reduse the gavages that might have been used for starving people.

If these pics are not allowed, please delete them and I apologize i just thought it might be nice to show people the other side of their meal


I expect people have seen these pics before and expect those that enjoy these living beings as food will find no problem with them, but I wanted to post them anyway

There is no way I can put my point across i think, without it turning into an arument

So I wanted to say it with pictures anda few words

I agree with you on this one. We have a lot of Saving the Whale threads ( espcially from activist that come here just to post 1 message rather than stick around), so let's have at least 1 thread for the whale food.

A friend of mine had it in his school lunch in Kushiro (hokaido).

Perhaps the sensible thing to do, if this is just for whale meat, is move it to the Japanese food section

I wonder is there any kind of canned whale meat? and can it be shipped into the USA?

Besides, whale isn't the only food that can have dangerous contaminants in it. I ate some fish a freind caught off the peir a few days ago, so my blood is probably swimming with mercury and other toxic substances right now. For that matter, toxins can easily leech out of the soil and contaminate plants...

...here's an idea, how about all the animal rights activists stop eating. Just stop eating anything and go sit in a tree. You'll probably starve to death, but at least you'll know you didn't hurt any poor wittle animals or get mecury poisoning.

Meanwhile, I'm saving up for a better fishing pole, I've seen people catch baby thresher sharks off the pier--and I do love to eat thresher shark.

I heard Cali Leopard Sharks are good true? I have a friend who catchs em off piers in San Fran.
