Hosting a dinner does mean taking some care to verify you actually serve food people can eat.
From dietary and religious restrictions, to people making a choice to avoid certain ingredients,communicationis key.
People online were divided on who exactly was in the wrong.
After all, our ancestors worldwide ate deer and its ilk far into the 20th century.
Indeed, the very word we use in English, venison, points back towards its origins.
Basically, humans have been eating deer or one of its relatives ever since we were hunter-gatherers.
However, some suggest that its still worth warning the guests about the ingredients in the dishes.
Similarly, comparing venison to opossum is just frankly insulting.
All in all, this seems like a small and absolutelypetty argument.
All in all, this is just a classic example of an overreaction.
