I have the title of Eel king. Meaning i was the champion of eating the most eel in an eel party in south of Sweden. 22 pieces of big eel and i also eat a head and a tail, not the bones but still. About 1 meter of eel in all. Second place was 16. My grandmother also had the title of eel queen but my father never been to such a party or we would have been 3 generations of eel royalty. I was praying to the big porslin good later that night because of all the fat, but i held it in and my son was conceived against bad odds the next day adding to the claim eel is good for fertility.

In Shanghai Flextronics factory canteen 2001 they had some good tasting mushroom in a nice soy sauce. I loved it. So after a couple of days i asked my Chinese colleagues what kind of mushroom it was, shiitake maybe? "mushroom? That is pig stomach" they answered me. I continue eating it but had a bit harder time of it. I learned not to ask what i was eating after that. I loved the food. I gained 2 kg in 2 weeks while my colleagues from Sweden lost about the same.

I agree about the sausage in China. But i had some other than this pink. It was mor gray and course cut pieces inside. The taste was really of rinsed meat like a Swedish sausage been left on the floor for 10 days and then kept in a freezer for 10 years. It was supposed to be the best sausage and my gf liked it but i could not muster it.

Fun fact guys: Cooked food is higher in calories than raw food. So that farmer will have fatter pigs by cooking their food first.

I thank God I was not born in China or somewhere that this would haven been my diet. I’m with Winston on the reactions. Matt is the omnivore for sure.

Q: For Winston. Controversial question, but in your opinion, what did Martin Luther King's Civil Rights did right that the ANC is doing wrong?
