Mnhnnnn..whale..... by guanako on 06-24-2005 at 09:47 PM
i was just watching the news and they showed this news about japan and i decided to the research and found out it was true, people in japan eat whale meat and they even have whale hamburgers 
here are some facts if dont believe me
RE: Mnhnnnn..whale..... by mwe99 on 06-24-2005 at 09:52 PM
True, but it is just culture and nothing can change that. You can't tell a whole nation to stop eating something. If i had my way no meat would be eaten but i dont and thats just human nature, like the article says:
"Asking Japan to abandon this part of its culture would compare to Australians being asked to stop eating meat pies, Americans being asked to stop eating hamburgers and the English being asked to go without fish and chips."

Norweigens hunt and eat whale's as well, and afaik the norweigens hunting them is permited because it is part of culture and one whale will feed a whole village.
Im not sure if the same applys for japan though.
What really sucks is shark fin soup, then catch the shark, cut its fin off, and chuck in back into the sea where it dies anyway

Why i shake my flipper at you!!! lol, u better watch out, u might get pecked.
I would try any of the above delicacies. I would find myself feeling a bit of a hypocrit if not. eating dog would be a bit wierd; friendly companion etc.
and yes you can eat me... If you catch me that is! *waddles speedilly off*

Americans and their stupid negative advertising...
This is a strategy to get people judge Japan, since they're trying to force them to stop hunting whales.
In my opinion, they could stop arguing and make them breed whales instead. That way everyone's happy.
Don't farmers have chickens and cows? How does a whale farm sound?
RE: Mnhnnnn..whale..... by SikStyles on 06-25-2005 at 02:43 AM
people eat different food in different countries..its a culture thing..i bet japanese know that whales are endangered species and i bet the whale hamburger is very expensive..usually when it comes to eating animals they put prices very very high..so people rarely eat them ..that way they use many up many animals..such as whales..

The only thing its not too hard to farm chickens and cows because they are easy to capture in the first place without killing/harming, but its not that easy for whales...

Also the facility that has to be made is a lot more expensive and needs a little bigger space

They could get big tanks and breed whales in it. Then we could all enjoy our whale burgers.

Guys check out the breeding cycle of whales... you'll know why thay dont start a 'so called whale farm' & why they say you to stop killing them. If you stop now and catch only permitted amount (Japan has a permitted quota) and stop poaching, you can still eat them... or else you wont in any case

Sucks, I know. But nowadays they can extract eggs and sperm and do it themselves.

(or else where do you have farms..whale farms) Poaching is done there! And you cannot stop whale from swimming, so that it stays in one area. They are migratory animals. Sorry dude...but please dont kill them...eat chicken and fish....why do you need a whale for dinner?
