My wife’s dad was in the army for 28 years. He served in Korea and some locals were feeding him and a few of his buddies after they had been out on a long “walk”. They were very grateful and they were so hungry that it had tasted very good. But he looked in the pot to try and see what they had been eating. The friendly and helpful woman hostess said in broken English, “Sti eh up pap pye in boe em.” He was puzzled and looked at one of his buddies. The buddy said, “Stir it up the puppy is in the bottom.” He joined in 1938. Even after going through four year over seas in WWII, and gutting a lot of deer and cows at home... he said he nearly passed out.

Some friends were in the Philippines
taking a tour in one of the local tuk-tuk (three-wheel moped).
Very hot so they stopped for a cold one, or two...
Then hungry and again thirsty a few more cold ones and some lunch at a roadside joint.
They ordered whatever it was the guy next to them was having.
Fried frog legs or something?
Finishing up they noticed bits of fur on the end of their ‘drum sticks’?
It was never verified, but rumor had it to have been rat legs?
