Chow chow

What is up with this random paragraph?

In China the 'Chow Chow' has been specifically bred to produce a high yield of meat for its comparative size to other dog breeds. In fact literally translated 'Chow Chow' means 'Food Food'.

'Chow' is not Mandarin for 'food'. The actual chinese name name for the Chow Chow breed is 鬆獅犬, which means "puffy lion dog" (refer Chow Chow). Furthermore, the high majority of dog meat consumed in China is obtained from a St. Bernard crossbreed. Refer to Dog meat main article.
