Dude- I don't think anyone will be pissed if you post that stuff. Just make sure they're pics of alive animals.

Suckling pig. Some debate about what baby animal is the cutest, but none about which is the tastiest!

I suppose we should all be shocked now.

Or tantalised! There's nothing to say that we can't appreciate cute baby animals on a culinary level too. In fact, in China, all of the cute baby animals posted so far on this thread (bar two, by my count) can be eaten in local cafes and at street vendors. It does depend on the region though.

I'll only half satisfy your curiosity- winged ponies are never consumed as food. When it comes to traditional medicine, however, I can't say either way.

The other you'll have to guess (although I'm not 100% that I caught all the animals that are not part of Chinese cuisine- I might have missed one or two).

Ah, but you're American- you guys will eat all kinds of evil stuff as long as it's put between two halves of a burger bun.

a good point; however, calling fluttershy evil is like calling warren buffett poor.

Nah- I wouldn't call Fluttershy evil, just that her meat would be evil stuff. Unicorn meat would seem pretty evil, too. It would be more like calling the eating of meat products cut from Warren Buffet evil.

Although to be fair, that latter example is probably more of a morally ambiguous case.

oh, so the act of making fluttershy into food is evil. well yeah, i thought that was implied.

That pinkie burger needs a slice of cheese and some condiments maybe.

And that, people, is how you put together a Post of the Year contender. Also it gives me an excuse to re-post the Ponycraft 2 video unapologetically.
