An undercover investigation has revealed a shocking trade in illegal 'bush meat' at a London market - including the sale of dead rats for human consumption.
Charred sheep skins, another favourite in west Africa known as 'smokies', are also being sold by butchers at the Ridley Road market in Dalson, east London.
A BBC investigation using hidden cameras uncovered at least six butchers selling the illegal meats, breaking UK food safety laws.

I have seen Africans buying whole goats at a live market. It's a place where they butcher the animal and prepare it as you requested. I have seen whole roasted goats(with the skin on). Not sure how they can eat the roasted skin. The smell is repulsive.
Some of the Chinese restaurants in Old Compton street in Soho serve rats and cats and they are unhygenic as water openly flow from the kitchens after midnight.

In NYC it is LEGAL to serve rats and cats dishes in a restaurant.
There is a chance if you walk into some grocery/meat stores in China, the first thing you see is a whole dog floating in a pot of boiling water..cooked and ready to be eaten.
