He ate a borderline endangered species, pandering to audiences with low IQ.

[@cina9733]

The lion was a bit uncomfortable but honestly the guy was right there waiting for him to try it. And the lion was already cooked and dead... Can't fault Sonny for this. He was pandering to the guests and hosts in front of him.

[@JsJdv]

@@birdlaw1019 I don't understand how that panders to audiences with low IQ. It's a self proclaimed best ever food show and shows cuisines both unique and exotic all around the world. Trying out, save for cannibalism, anything available that ties into the culture he's diving into is quite literally in his job description. Not to mention he did so very reluctantly. Rather, it seems like the low IQ individuals had a very strong negative opinion about it. No offense. :)

[@marcchesley3731]

It's not my cuisine, but predators are not intended for food because they eat sick animals, and when you eat a predator whatever viruses they have will now jump to humans and animal viruses mutate faster in humans than in animals, because the animals immune system can deal with it and not like us humans. There is a health risk to themselves, and anyone they come into contact with if they become ill from eating certain animals. And yes people cats and dogs are predators and shouldn't be eaten especially if they go outside or wander about outside because they kill and eat other animals! This is how SARS came about, H1N1 and diseases like this. And this is FACTS, you can ask any scientist, doctor, or virologists! And you can't change FACTS!

Great vid Sonny! You truly are a cultured man. Much respect. You were hesitant in trying the lion and was honest about it. Your reasons are justifiable and what I love about your show is you are humble and respectful of others culture even if they differ from your own. Being sincere and grateful for the efforts that Mr Fernado presented you with the lion meat, you still ate it like a true champ and it shows on your face. In some cultures, refusal of another’s offering of foods and gifts shows a lack of humility. Thank you for spreading cultural awareness and diversity all over the globe one dish at a time.

While I love dogs and cats, and wouldnt go out of my way to eat one, I have harvested (killed and butchered) deer, lamb, rabbit and various foul. I've eaten squirrel and that's pretty much a rat that lives in a tree lol.

Not to mention things like antibiotics, pesticides, hormones and so on... And in the end the only single argument for this is "It tastes good".

I used to be quite picky when it came to cuts of meat. Watching this show really opened me up to eat whatever, it simply resulted in a way more diverse dinner every night with many different flavours to explore. I do have to say it helps a lot to have a friendly village butcher who's willing to arrange whatever unpopular cut you want though hahahaha. When travelling nothing is off limits, it's all thanks to this channel. It's good to use all parts of an animal, it boggles my mind the amount of flavour there is in cuts that otherwise would be discarded... Travelling also became a bunch more interesting, ngl this channel had quite an impact on my life

When I was stationed on the east coast, we had wild boars right on the Navy base. One of my petty officers had one on his property harassing his dogs, so he shot it. The next day, he brought some barbecued ribs that he made from it. Delicious! I used to be a ranch hand, and one of the nearby farmers always had exotic meats that he had killed. He brought us bear, mountain lion, and javalina. The mountain lion was just as you described the lion, very chewy. The bear was much easier to eat. At my local university, the entomology department has an annual event in which various bugs are presented as food. I've eaten ants, bees, beetles, meal worms, earthworms, silkworms, scorpions, crickets, and grasshoppers. Also, in Korea, some buffet restaurants will have crickets and grasshoppers on the line. At different restaurants around town, I've had ostrich, quail, gator, frog legs, chicken feet, pig feet, rabbit, lamb, and shark. I've had jerky made of rattlesnake, kangaroo, elk, and caribou. I've eaten almost every part of a cow, pig, fish, duck, and chicken. I love what you're doing with this series, where you try to expand people's minds as to what food is available. Thank you.

Great video! I totally agree with you about people needing to question their thought process on 'acceptable' foods. I am always amazed at how people can be fine eating certain types of meats, but then get offended at people eating other meats that they deem to be unusual. Living in Asia the past 10 years (Cambodia) has really opened my eyes up to the hypocrisy of this.
