AB - The purpose of this research were to explore the influential factors for dog-eating culture and to identify a difference between two distinct groups; one group of people who supports the argument that dog-eating is a barbarous food culture and the other one who believes that dog-eating is a part of traditional culture that imbedded for a long time. Data was collected in a traditional market. Randomly selected 170 tourists were participated in this survey. Chi-square analysis, t-test and multiple regression were utilized to accomplish the purpose of this study. Results revealed that participants who were male, high school diploma or less, no religion, human priority, meat-preference diet, and against Western culture tended to accept dog-eating culture (p<.05). In addition, the survey item of “Boshin Tang (dog-meat soup) is part of traditional food culture so it should be kept.” revealed that those who support the traditional uniqueness tended to accept the dog-eating culture compared to those who support the international movement (against dog-eating). This study concluded that many participants who support dog-eating culture believed that they were not willing to blindly follow the foreign opinion against dog-eating culture but they recognized the need for better treatment for slaughtering process and sanitary issues.
