First, cat meat itself is sour and not very delicious, so most people will not accept it. In fact, in order to find out the various functions of medicinal materials and ingredients, Li Shizhen had eaten cat meat a long time ago. Among them, it was recorded that cat meat was very sour, and its taste was very poor, so it was not suitable for eating. So people generally don't eat cat meat. However, cats are regarded as food in some places, which is the reason for the progress of human cooking methods, such as cooking cat meat and snake meat together, called Long Hudou.
But people in most places are actually reluctant to eat these foods, and eating cat meat itself is not as delicious as some beef, so no one eats it.
Second, eating cat meat was considered unlucky before, and cat meat itself was unhealthy. In the past, there was a saying that cats have nine lives. If you eat one life, the rest will haunt you all the time, which will lead to a bad life for you. Therefore, it is unlucky to eat cats. There is also a saying that eating cat meat can't cross the bridge, and you can only be a ghost all your life, and you can't be reincarnated. And cat meat is not delicious, so people don't like it even more.
Eating cat meat is also unhealthy. In fact, it is easy to understand that cats usually eat mice. You know, cats are pure carnivores, so they all eat mice or mouse carcasses with parasites and bacteria. Of course, there may be some birds and other animals. These animals are actually very dangerous. If there are any toxic substances, such as rat poison, or some viruses and other bad things, then the price to pay is. Besides, there is almost no record about the edible cat meat in ancient and modern China and foreign countries, and human beings do not need the nutrition brought by cat meat, so cat meat is not accepted by people.
Third, cats were very useful in ancient times, but in contemporary times, they attracted a large number of fans by their face value, so they were not accepted by the public. In ancient times, cats were used to catch mice. You know, there were a lot of mice before, and food was very scarce at that time, and food was the most important thing. Cats can protect food from being eaten by mice, which is actually very beneficial to protecting food. No one would be stupid enough to catch cats and eat them, so that all their food would be eaten.
Now, as a pet, the value of cats is very high and cute. The number of cats has exceeded the number of dogs. Everyone is very enthusiastic about cats. After all, cats have no bad thoughts. Who will eat cats?
