Hi Fellow Netizens of Singapore!
Just wanted to get a taste (whoops!) of the sentiments towards serving out the formally traditional, but now totally (and justifiably) ethically-stigmatised sharksfin soup for one's wedding banquet.
Surely, in this modern day and age, where we are hopefully more gentle, sentient beings who care about welfare for both humans and our fellow earthings (and by that, I mean all animal species), is it really right now to continue this barbaric practice?
If any of you need help deciding, please read this link:

Looking forward to hearing the views!

If concern real sharksfin soup, then use vegetarian sharksfin soup lor. If they ask during wedding, then announce over the amplifier system that it is vegetarian sharksfin soup, Everybody also cannot do anything, angpow give already mah. Next time they not happy, when they wedding also use the vegetarian sharksfin soup to kena back, then everyone in the future start to use vegetarian sharksfin soup naturally liao, which is good what? So the important question is, see who want to start first.
vegetarian sharksfins soup???
which g=enius invented sharkfins soup?
i dun like it anyway
I admit I like it though it's cruel to the sharks but which meat dish is not cruel one. Even killing chickens by cutting their necks is cruel...
But I eat sharkfins soup in moderation... only during weddings, big events, company dinners, company lunches.

Have. But to me, many kinds still can taste the difference from the real sharksfin. Because of texture.
It depends whether relatives are environmentalists or hardcore animal lovers...

good one.
anyways i mean the acutal sharkfin soup lasts for no more than 30 minutes before you're done with the dish. vegetarian or real, i seriously don't think it matters.
