When I went back the first time 15 years ago I told myself I would eat anything given me to eat at least once. Most of it is what I think of as the ;best food in the world. I cannot handle duck eggs, though. That first time when it was coming up time to go home three families had goodbye dinners for me and all had splurged a then huge sum for trứng ga. I ate them and did not show discomfort. Next time back I made sure everyone knew that duck eggs were not something I could do. It is not that the thought of half formed ducklets in shells horrified me, I just really don't like them. I did eat geckos and birds and other things Americans will not normally countenance and it was all good. But no more duck eggs, even with nước mắm.

In Asia the chicken feet are revered by the old folks, so much so that they make up stories to keep little kids paws off them.. “oh if you eat them, your hands will shake like grandpas” LOL

They are ok fresh hot, otherwise they an gelatinous glug, tasty glug, but glug.
