"Breeding animals for consumption is fine, except this one."

It is slightly odd how people are like, "cows? Gimme that burger. Sheep? Mmm, mint sauce. Chicken? Batter that baby up". But then suddenly everyone turns into a vegan when it's a dog or a horse.

I've got no interest in eating dog meat, but where's the consistency?

a horse

They eat horse in Korea, too. It's just not as widespread as dog, so no ban yet.

Horse is also eaten in most of europe and asia and there is much less taboo about it than dog meat.
