Dog meat, also known as fragrant meat or simply fragrant,[4][5] is the meat derived from dogs. Historically human consumption of dog meat has been recorded in many parts of the world.[6]

In the 21st century, dog meat is consumed to a limited extent in Cambodia,[7] China,[8] India,[9] Indonesia, Ghana, Laos,[10] Nigeria,[11] South Korea,[12][13] Switzerland,[14] and Vietnam.[15] In these areas, the legality of dog meat consumption varies with some nations permitting it or lacking a nationwide ban. It was estimated in 2014 that worldwide, 25 million dogs are eaten each year by humans.[16]

Some cultures view the consumption of dog meat as part of their traditional, ritualistic, or day-to-day cuisine, and other cultures consider consumption of dog meat a taboo, even where it had been consumed in the past. Opinions also vary drastically across different regions within different countries.[17][18]
