reflection Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 Reflection, its the people from different cultures and geograhic regions have different taste and history also lah.Those starfish, baby worms etc... actually in northern china, people have been eating them for thousand of years already...Southern china treat these as poison, so our normal culinary cuisines don't include that. An example, on the North western side, you will rarely find pork and beef, only lambs, sheeps and horse....Would you think the horse are so pitiful? But it has been like that for a long long time already.... so same apply to anything...However, I must confess that I had tasted- dog mean in Beijing once upon a time (with regrets)- snake soup in Guangzhou- ostrich meat- frog legsAgree that these are cultural habits but dont force me to eat them unless I am starved for weeks.

riverrobles Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) I've tried eating below exotic foods before but I only did it once: Raw chicken egg ( my father forced me to swallow and it eat raw) to test my manliness when I was in primary school. Never will I do it again . Bless my father :-) Balut or boiled fertilized duck eggs - I do liked it when I was still a very innocent child. My father would bring 5 of this every night. He would open the shell and ask me to sip the juice from the boiled duck's egg, it was savory, good tatse and he lets me eat the yellow egg part and some of the soft goeey parts. As I age, I got to know how to open the egg sheel on my own and my goodness, the first time I saw a beak and feathers I already started to throw up. I really did not know that I was already eating an aborted duck. Bless this living thing. Dog meat - my father is a heavy drinker and we always have guests and one of the dishes prepared was a very aromatic and spicy meal, it was marinated with beer. His friends and him teased me if I can drink (I was 11) and from where I come from (the typhoon belt of the Philippines) youngsters are trained to drink to survive the cold and harsh weather during typhoon season either with our own home made coconut wine or with beer. I said I can and I was just sitting there and mimicking what they were doing, do when theyd rink I drink, when they eat I also eat. I would only know the next day that the one being served was actually dog meat. Out of respect for my first dog baby Chocolate, I would not repeat it and really detest eating dog meat now The good news is eating and killing dogs and cats are now illegal in Philippines. Frog legs - I only experience it last year , forced by my Malaysian and American colleague telling me that it tastes like chicken. I did not taste any chicken it was more bones, we went to this stall in Katong. Imagine we went all the way to Katong just to show me this specialty, won't come back :-) Deer meat - in Indonesia, I think this one is ok but expensive, I'm not the one who paid but my date told me that its expensive Crocodile meat - again my colleagues duped me in eating this chicken tasting , squid like gooeyness marinated in black soy sauce ,aromatic with vinegar. I ate one portion and once I saw my colleagues faces and smiles, I already know this is another prank. I love my colleagues , makes my life exciting :-) Edited August 4, 2018 by riverrobles Quote I'm really turned-on if both heads (the head above and the head below) are both functioning well https://asianguysgonewild.newtumbl.com https://linktr.ee/riverrobles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
