The divine bovine - Taipei Times

The divine bovine Even though beef is widely consumed in Taiwan, oxen and buffalo are still animals with spiritual significance and certain taboos By Han Cheung / Staff reporter Eating beef was once so taboo in Taiwanese society that a traditional idiom warned that doing so would damn one’s soul to hell. Old people also warned children that consuming beef would make them stupid.

Some farmers still feel this way. In 2019, photographer Tsai Meng-hsing (蔡孟興) captured a tear-jerking moment when an old man kissed his long-time ox companion goodbye.
