You laugh, but I'm going to be you cash money we see more of this: https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/13/asia/china-coronavirus-us-lijian-zhao-intl-hnk/index.html … They can ban Winnie the Pooh but not Pangolins from Thailand? Not wet markets? Welp, they don't want to because the men in power think it's viagra. This is also not just China.

I've traveled all over the world and eaten nearly every thing you can think of, and "stamina!" is put forward as a reason for eating a lot of these disease carrying animals. There's also the status symbol aspect of being able to pay for it too. It won't get banned any time soon.

Further more, plenty of people come out claiming that only the poor eat these exotic animals, but that's bullshit. These dishes are very exclusive, especially if it's an illegal animal. You also see the explanation that it's culture, but it's toxic male culture 90% of the time.

So yeah, we're going to have many more SARS and COVID-19 and plague outbreaks because a bunch of dudes in power think eating an Armadillo Pangolin Bat wing soup is going to give them a boner.
