this new profile picture is a tribute to the last day of summer!
^i'm asian -- it's in my blood!nahhh, jk. just didn't wanna do my summer homework. however...
I AM DONE WITH COLLEGE APPS!!except i still have to edit... a lot.
anyways, back to the topic...
a famous cantonese proverb (thanks, google!) is that “Anything that walks, swims, crawls, or flies with its back to heaven is edible.” well, i'm cantonese, and i certainly will eat almost anything...
i started listing some of the different types of things I have eaten...
- DUCK :]
- pig ears
- pretty much every organ inside pigs actually... even the uterus! mm, chewy!
- animal... blood. that turns into jello-ish. yum!
- turtle (i even watched them butcher it)
- worm grass (extremely expensive, but i drank my money's worth :D)
- bear heart water (really nasty.)
- caterpillars (taste like eggs! if you can get over the crunchy shell...)
- frog (really does resemble chicken, except for the texture)
- ostrich pizza
- balut (it's an undeveloped bird fetus fresh from the egg!)
- seahorse soup (people were particularly repulsed by this? why?!)
- fish swim bladder
- snake....everything.
- bird saliva on random egg custard desserts
- crab/fish/snake/sparrow eggs
-
(animal) (animal organ/body part/product)
my theory is that, once you think of something as food, it's not as gross anymore. and after you have taken a bite, you'll like it too :]
what weird foods/delicacies are you proud to admit you have eaten?
