When Nixon first visited China I watched a documentary on the country where they stated that the Chinese will eat anything with 4 legs except a table and anything from the water except a boat, so nothing has changed.
Hell, it doesn't have to have legs.
4 legs, 3 legs, 2 legs, 1 leg, no legs.
“When Nixon first visited China I watched a documentary on the country where they stated that the Chinese will eat anything with 4 legs except a table and anything from the water except a boat, so nothing has changed.”
My Chinese wife says they will eat anything with legs except the table, anything that flies except an airplane and anything in the sea except a submarine.
Go to Tou Tube and look up “The Food Ranger” who lives there
“Yeah - he's just being an idiot. He says dark dogs taste better - but everyone knows white dogs are the best!”
“Um - this is pork, right?”
“Ha ha! Yes, is pork. But across the street is dogs for sale.”
He was on a job in the Philippines and as the guest of honor was given the honor of killing the dog for dinner. He knew it was a big deal, and probably shamed him and his hosts, but he declined. “Damned if I was going to kill some poor dog!”
Actually now with their addition of plastics and melamine in the food supply, you can't even really say that anymore.
I had to go to China occasionally on business. The Chinese team always took me to dinner. They would always ask me what I would like to eat. I always told them to order and I would eat it. I think sometime they would order something that was a test to see if I would eat it. As long as it was not trying to crawl off the plate, I would eat it. And I never asked what it was.
I’m still here.
