Why do people only eat chicken/beef/pork/fish?
Why do people (alot of the people in the western world), only eat pork/beef/chicken/fish (and a few others), and look down on people eating other things like liver (organs), snakes, toads, ducks, etc (so called exortic food)
They are always like "ohhh gross" yet they've never even tried it, and talk like you're torturing animals because you are not eating out of the chicken/cow/pig group. Eating an animal is eating an animal no matter what, and they are NOT endangered, they are raised in farms just like your typical meat.
Why do you limit yourselves to these meats only??
What makes you think that eating a cow/pig/chicken/etc is okay but not any other animal on Earth?

chickens, cows and pigs are farmed on a large scale making these meats readily available. Asians eat duck and frogs legs used to be eaten occationally.
other animals may be restricted or illegal to kill in certain places.
I'm game for anything though, I once ate a salad in Thailand that had LIVE shrimp in it!!
Meat is good, except mutton, but your liking of toads is sickening. I eat bear, elk, deer, cattle, pork,shrimp, crab, lobster, crayfish, fish, possum, raccoon, frog legs, Pheasant, quail, pigeons, rabbit, squirrel, liver is absolutely delicious. Brains are good. Tongue is good. Worms and bugs are Taboo and in the yuck factor. Now snakes are good. Milkweed is good Thistles are good.
because we are used to what we are used to. if we all grew up eating the above things it wouldnt be saying ew it would be normal. but since it is different from what we know we judge and just think that if we ate it it would bee bad. everyone in this world places judgement on the unknown. its human nature
Since when did Duck become exotic in the West? Just cos MacD and Wendy's doesn't sell it doesn't mean its exotic LOL
It's only strange because it's not in their custom to do so.
It really just comes down to that.
Relax girl.
i dont care what you want to eat, why dont you eat hamsters, and rats??? These are very exotic foods, only the wealthiest people can afford them....
You go ahead and eat whatever you want to but I believe I'll stick to chicken and fish.... I dont eat pork cause it will kill you
