Well it is semi-true.. some chinese people even eat the embryo's of animals.. and the mini-foetus' of abortioned babies... x_x
^ i think its nice too, the only reason id think people dislike it is cause its technically swallow spit -huh
well... there is an old Chinese saying "whatever's back faces the sky is eatable" so i guess they'll eat anything that has it's back facing upwards when they r desperate... -sick2
I figured that it's just a phrase meaning the chinese eats everything that grows under the sun because of poverty and curiosity.
hmm.. i drank snake soup before. tastes like chicken. and shark fin soup... also tastes like chicken soup.. my brother once told me that if you eat dogs/snakes it makes you warmer or something -_- lol. dunno if its true...
^ oh yeh that reminded me, ive had snakes gall bladder for medicinal purposes back in HK when i was a youngster Also by my place back in Hk theres a food place that has cages for snakes and lizards, like a little oi mai dim that you choose the thing you want to eat and you can have it
