- LETTERS, Page 12What You Eat

- So 105 TIME readers were revolted by the ancient Chinese
- practice of eating healthy dogs, fattened for the table
- (LETTERS, Oct. 30). Many of those people probably enjoy crab
- cakes or crab gumbo, made from the scavengers of our bays, to
- which the most putrid bait is attractive. It is a puzzlement.
- I've never eaten dog, but I have eaten escargot, crawfish,
- catfish, alligator, rattlesnake, possum and coon.
