DONGYANG, China (Reuters) - It's the end of a school day in the eastern Chinese city of Dongyang, and eager parents collect their children after a hectic day of primary school.
But that's just the start of busy times for dozens of egg vendors across the city, deep in coastal Zhejiang province, who ready themselves to cook up a unique springtime snack favored by local residents.
Basins and buckets of boys' urine are collected from primary school toilets. It is the key ingredient in "virgin boy eggs", a local tradition of soaking and cooking eggs in the urine of young boys, preferably below the age of 10.

Mods pull if too controversial.
Urine for a treat if you visit there!
If you can eat it... In China, they will eat it.
A Chinese American once told me that Chinese will eat anything with four legs except the table.
Really?
Yikes!! No Chinese food tonight.
Ha.
The seldom divulged details of various Chinese and Indian ayrvedic remedies sometimes include animal urine and human urine.
Gosh, those mystical types are so spiritual and advanced compared with the West./S
Oh well, urine gets used for many things you wouldn't suspect. Ever hear of lutefisk?
Harsh old woman to man taking food order in Flower Drum Song:
Madame ‘Auntie’ Liang:
“Then sell me five pounds of seahorses, two pounds of dried snake meat, and a box of longevity noodles. Oh, yes, and a dozen thousand-year eggs. And be sure they’re fresh.”
In case you were wondering why egg drop soup is yellow...
I guess they want brine that’s yet to be contaminated from pangolin humping.
These pigs will eat anything
Just watching a Chinese video were the Shaolin monks use it to start the healing process on a badly injured guy. Only works if it is fresh. But then all things Shaolin were destroyed and the monks slaughtered during the Great Leap Backward under the watchful gaze of the Chairman. So no one knows what they did or how their Kung Fu worked - now just guesses.

and anything that flies, except airplanes; and anything that swims, except boats.
Its not just bous urine, its young boys withing a narrow age range.
Well...urine will kill athlete’s foot fungus. But, you don’t drink it, you pee on your toes.
Disgusting Godless culture!
Only eat the shrimp and rice - all the rest is made from local pets and the cheapest fish that can still be eaten after heavily flavored.
Their cooking oil is taken from the gutter filtered and resold ,LOL
Piss eggs.
There’re videos about it too.
