Olympic Cuisine – A Friday Fascinating
By Michelle Malay Carter on August 15, 2008
A friend passed along some photos of the food choices available to Olympics visitors in the Chinese markets.? I guess when you eat “Chinese” food in Raleigh, North Carolina, USA it’s not wholly representative of their culinary offerings.
In addition to the photos I’ve included, she shared photos of lizard legs, iguana tails, seahorses, dog brain soup, dog liver with vegetables, goat lungs with red peppers, mixed cow and horse stew.
I find it fascinating that one man’s culinary delight is another’s worst fright.? I think I could handle most of what I saw except the crunchy items.? I wonder what Chinese nationals would find most repulsive?while on a culinary tour of?the United States?
I’ve had some traffic from China on this blog.? Maybe you could offer your opinion on this one?
