Mmmm, Corgi...



Great little tidbit in today's news that especially caught my eye since I, just like the Queen of England, am a lover of that breed of dog called corgi. English performance artist Mark McGowan has eaten one, in meatball form minced with apples and onions, to draw attention to cruel hunting practices of Prince Philip and members of the royal family.

Don't worry, the corgi in question was one that died of natural causes at a breeder's farm. Not surprisingly, McGowan, who is ordinarily a vegetarian, found his dinner to be "really, really, really disgusting." Personally, I would not have gone the meatball route with that corgi. I would have turned him into a Cawl Cennin or Pastai Gig Oen or a Gwledd Y Cybudd, it being a Welsh dog, it would taste best with a Welsh preparation.

Anyway, check out BBC coverage here.
