Pang Pang, a 9 year-old kid from China, swallowed over 100 tadpoles in an effort to cure his rash. His grandmother had overheard from neighbors that this was a good treatment for a rash. She went right out to the local pond and grabbed a bowl full of tadpoles for her grandson. She then forced the boy to swallow 20 per day for a week. After about 4 days Pang Pang became ill and went to the doctor. Although he was treated by the doctor, the boy was still worried that he might grow frogs in his stomach. The Chinese do use tadpoles for medical purposes but only externally and they have to be prepared in a specific way. Poor kid will probably never listen to his grandmother again… who apparently is naive and gullible. http://news.sohu.com/20070915/n252163908.shtml translated by Mui Mui of WAN
he probably got sick cuz of the bacteria in the water that the tadpoles were swimming in. if his grandmother was stupid enough to feed him 20 live tadpoles a day, she probably didn't think to keep them in clean water.
lol stomach acid has a pH of 1.5-2... it would be enough to dissolve a tadpole in a few minutes... i highly doubt he will have frogs living in his stomach
i know but stilll =) wen i was a kid...i used to believe that if i swallowed a watermelon seed...a watermelon would grow inside me...lol...but not anymore...lool
lol....is it that bad...? maybe their tasty if u prepare em the right way....like err...anchovy or something
^ anchovy is disguisting lol so salty ;x , and tadpoles.. thats sickk too LOl i can see why people say asians eat weird things :(
have you guys drank "san cha" you know where they burn the papers for the gods and then put it in your tea and your supposedly supposed to get blessed by drinking it...grandma's have weird beliefs man lol...
i am not a fan of anchovy either...but its quite good on pizza i guess.... lol...there are lots of stuff u can eat/drink to get blessed according to ppl....but no thanks... i dont believe in that stuff
shhh :-[ LOL, frog does taste good, but when you know when you're eating , it's just fucking sick. LOL
slimey? what u talking about? lolz... frogs are good... u could easily pass it for baby chickens or something lol (my friends bought that) did u know... frog legs will still jump even though it's only the legs!!? like u can gut a frog, rip out it's organs then chop it in half, skin it, toss each half in a seperate bowl, and the legs will jump outta the bowl lol. Frogs are some crazy shitz. btw the eyes still blink, kinda creepy actually
fried ones taste like chicken perhaps...but i had something different....maybe they were like half raw ones or soemthing.... the stuff u just said....makes it sound even more yummie....
