I find this image strangely disturbing.

1. Okay, I know it's supposed to be a dog.

What I cannot figure out; what the heck is it made of? Ice cream, peanut butter, canna butter? What?!!?? 🤔🤪

4. Maybe mochi ? nt

6. ''The ice cream puppy creations are made in a cafe in Taiwan who make the desserts in a mould''

8. Damn, those are realistic-looking!

I admire the artisanship while simultanously being repelled at the thought of tucking into one of those.

10. I imagine that the 'treat' is related to the ban on 'killing, selling, consuming dogs' in Taiwan (?)

Eating Dogs Banned in Taiwan—A First in Asia
Killing, selling and consuming dogs (and cats) is now illegal in Taiwan. Will South Korea and mainland China follow suit?

PUBLISHED APRIL 12, 2017

IN A LANDMARK step for animal welfare, Taiwan has outlawed the consumption of dog and cat meat—the first country in Asia to do so.

Anyone who buys or eats the meat can be fined up to $8,200. Back in 1998 Taiwan made it illegal to slaughter dogs and cats and sell their meat, but an underground commercial market persisted. And now Taiwan has now doubled down on punishment: Those who cause deliberate harm to a cat or dog can be fined up to $65,000, and serve two years of jail time—up from a maximum of one year previously.

2. Noooooo! Don't eat the puppy!

Not even that cookie dough looking puppy.

3. Reminds me of the very end of "Dementia 13" (Francis Ford Coppola's first film)

There's a lifelike doll of a little girl in the frame and an axe comes down on its face. Freaked me out at age six.

At 1:13:00

11. oh shit...I remember this movie...

5. I think that dog could

transform me into "Two Scoops". As much as that nickname is repulsive due to association!

[lillypaddle]

7. I agree

it's just wrong.

[appalachiablue]

9. Creepy & horrible

[Duppers]

12. Oh shit, that's awful.

[lame54]

13. I could be worse...

they could have started at the other end

[Rebl2]

14. This is

awful.

[forgotmylogin]

15. The artisanship on those is amazing.

And I agree it's a little disturbing before you realize it's an edible confection. Remember, we gleefully eat chocolate bunnies and peeps at Easter. Cake decorating has become an incredibly advanced new artform.

16. Wow!

Those are utterly amazing!

Again, though, I admire them but I'm not thinking "Yum, I'd like to have some of that."

[BlancheSplanchnik]

17. Ugh, no!!! I can't even stand to see Peeps. This is way worse!
