Exotic Food & Restaurants

[colwyn99]

The most exotic food I ever ate was deep fried locusts from Cabalen. It feels weird eating insects and then feeling their body parts in your mouth --- YUCK! :cry: :cry:

-stingray

In Japan and China In the underground restaurants they are serving fetus... Yukkkk

totoo ba yan?

[hellspawn]

the popular photos showing a guy cooking a foetus and eating it turned out to be a performance artist with a fake foetus. i think the photos can still be viewed at www.rotten.com

 

however, rumours persist that in certain areas of china and japan foetus is still on the menu...

i think that fetus thing is an urban myth, parang iyung monkey brains from hong kong kuno, i rmemeber asking all my hong kong friends kung nasaan ba iyung restaurant na iyun, pero sabi nila hindi daw totoo iyun, maybe a long time ago but not now or even 10 years ago.

 

the vilest thing i've tried though is fresh snake blood, ussually they make a small snake fight with a mongoose which then kills it, the stimulated blood fulll of adrenalin and the like are supposed to make a good healthy stimulant, but it taste very bad. This is still quite popular in the chinese countries

Have anyone tried the saliva of the swallow? It is considered a health food. It tastes good but very expensive. Because you can only find it in a place (usually a cave) where the swallows spit them out before they die. You can buy them in Chinatown.

when i was in HK, i was told by chinese boss that the fetus thingy is a hoax.... but they do eat lotsa weird stuff there... :sick:

 

i never knew the snakes had to be aggitated that way before u draw the blood... i was told to eat snake bile marinated in some chinese wine or something like that, to cleanse my system daw. well, it sure did... :sick: i threw up BIG TIME!

why not just eat the swallow, feathers, bones and everything rather than wait for it to die and spit out the saliva?
