In a Chinese restaurant would you try the more exotic foods?

No. They tend to eat different parts of the same animals that we do, as well as other animals entirely. I went to a really authentic Chinese restaurant with two asian friends one day - one is Korean and the other Chinese.

The people at the restaurant seemed to speak very little english and our chinese friend ordered for us. When the dishes arrived, they looked pretty good but I had to ask what was in one of them. There seemed to be things that I didn't recognize.

The Chinese friend asked the waiter what was in it, but she asked in Chinese. Now I don't speak Chinese but I can read expressions pretty well. After he told her, she was debating on whether to tell us what it was.It turns out that the beef dish was made with the tendons still attached to the pieces and that was what was confusing me.

She, of course, had no problems eating this, but I just stuck with the eggplant dish. I also shy away from those tv shows where people eat things that just shouldn't be consumed (at least from my taste buds' points of view). I also read an article about the food vendors at the last Olympics.

The only people at the fried-gross-stuff vendor were the tourists.

As a Chinese, I already know which food in the Chinese restaurants I'm going to eat and which I will not. Chinese people eat all kind of exotic and endangered animals, like bugs, bears, lizards, snakes and many more. I can't even bring my self to eat a moderately common Chinese delicacy: 1000 year egg or phitan, chicken eggs which have been soaked in vinegar and buried in ground for some time.

I used to love shark fin's soup, but now that I know that they use terrible methods to gain the shark fins, I am not going to eat them anymore. Unless of course, I am in family or dinner party in which refusing will humiliate my host (beside, by refusing I can't make the shark alive again). But for more exotic animals, I would decline to eat whatever the cost.

No, I'm really not into eating the more 'adventurous' things on a Chinese menu though.

No thank you. It took me until I was about 24 years old to try Chinese food. And to this day, I always get the same dish.

Chicken with broccoli and rice. Or Chicken teriyaki, better known as Chicken on a Stick! My son is much more daring when it comes to food.

Even though I am very limited such as, I don't eat seafood, he'll try just about anything.

Lets talk about adventure levels. 1) Safe I have had pork fried rice and I love it! 2) A tiny bit daring Duck, it really is quite tasty, but didn't agree with me.3) Daring Chicken Foot Soup, I have heard it is fantastic.

I would give it a shot. 4) Really Daring Fish Eyes .. . Oww heck no!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
