He listed a menu including braised chicken, steamed fish and dog meat from Huajiang county in Guangdong, which is famed for its nutritional benefits in China.

I do like dogs, but seriously - would any single dog that was going to be eaten for food NOT be eaten if dog were taken off the menu for two or three astronauts? No.
