A top Italian food writer has been suspended indefinitely from his televised cooking show for recommending stewed cat.
According to London’s Times Online, RAI has said it has dropped Beppe Bigazzi for offering the recipe on La Prova del Cuoco, a midday cooking show on the network’s main channel.
RAI’s switchboard was slammed with complaints from viewers and animal-rights activists, the Times said.
Bigazzi, the author of Cooking with Common Sense and a star of La Prova del Cuoco for the past 10 years, said the dish was famous in his home region in Tuscany.
That man is sick we should feed him to the cannonbulls or what ever you call them.
He talking about womens.
What’s wrong with cat stew? Who are we to dictate what animals people eat?
One of my favorites is Manatee fillets over the grill. Tastes better than chicken!
And what’s wrong with that?
Give an animal a cutsy name and it can’t be eaten?
Here piggy, piggy or kitty, kitty = what’s the difference ?????
3 billion dying of starvation, what’s a cat or a billion? Portuguese eat puppies, why not cats?
Cats are actually wild animals under law. You cannot be sued for the actions of your cat in any wesern nation (or most others that I know of); does that make them food? No more and no less than any other wild animal. But I bet they’d be tough.
