Eating dog meat a personal choice

Comment on "To eat, or not to eat dog meat" (China Daily, June 13).

Eating, or not eating dog meat is a matter of personal choice. It is customary for people to eat a specific kind of food on a specific occasion. Slaughtering chicken and pigs for Spring Festival, eating turkey on Thanksgiving Day, and slaughtering cows and sheep on Eide-Qurban are examples of some accepted customs.
