I believe that in the voyages of Martin Frobisher to find the
NorthWest Passage, they cooked Eskimo dogs and noted various
anatomical differences between them and European dogs...

When was this? Was this before 1600 CE?

I agree on the tastes of sailors. I think there are other reports of  
them eating penquins and the like. This probably lies in the outlying  
region of things eaten during sieges or famines. But while not  
something which would be served to Lords and Ladies, much less  
Royalty, probably worth our study.
