Korean leader, Kim Jong-un has labeled Dog meat as super-food which contain more Vitamins and also good for intestine

Tyrant Kim Jong-un has hailed Dog meat as a super-food to try and encourage more of his starving population to eat pups.

The North Korean leader is encouraging everyone to eat more dog meat, suggesting it contains more vitamins than chicken, beef, pork and duck.

Sickeningly, the state's propaganda channel even claims that torturing a dog to death improves its taste.

According to North Korean YouTube propaganda channel DPRK Today, the dish is a traditional "stamina food" and is good for the stomach and intensines.

The Korea Times reports that the channel also encourages people to beat the dog to death, before removing its fur and scorching it.

Several other media outlets in North Korea have also lauded dog meat as a nutritional option, with radio station Tongil Voice describing puppy stew as "medicine".

Despot Kim has warned his people they may have to go on "an arduous march" - the name for the four-year famine which killed millions in the 1990s.

The obese dictator loves gorging on European cheese and fine wines while two-thirds of his people struggle to survive on reduced state food handouts.

Amnesty International said recent reductions in the state-controlled handouts have “severely threatened” the majority of the nation from getting enough to eat.

Dog is a popular winter food in parts of China and Korea, where the rich meat is believed to help keep people warm.

Historically the meat came from strays and dogs bred for sale but now animal rights campaigners say they often discover dogs with collars and tags when they intercept traders.
