Is this a "delicacy"?
-
Hi everyone! Has anyone eaten this "delicacy"? I dont think it is actually food for human, its isn't fit for consumption at all IMO.
This page is from wikipedia. (Warning: Rather gross pic inside).

no eat before
but it's a common food in feeleepin -
This dish is sold in hongkong leh.
-
why?
different cultures eat different things... -
yuck..
poor duck -
Same as me. I think its quite inhumane to eat it, might as well eat a aborted baby?Originally posted by lolxzxz:yuck.. poor duck 
Yuck, the thoughts of it make me feel like puking. -
people eat sharksfin which is just tasteless cartilage anyway..
just like eating someone's toenails.. yet people eat them...
locusts are a delicacy and very high in protein... mealworms are yummy (i have eaten them.. it is) and high in protein, zero cholesterol..
if you eat eggs, remember.. that came out of the ovary of a chicken...
cheese is just fermented congealed bovine mammary fluid...
yogurt is milk gone bad, full of germs...
so, don't judge other cultures.. the chinese (are you one?) have our own atrocities..
bear bile, seahorses, tiger penis, dog... the list goes on... -
not to mention the japanese eat their marbled beef completely raw...talk about savagery...

Btw im a chinese.
But i dont eat shark fin, bear bile whatever. The only disgusting/atrocities i eat was pig's intestines, stomach. 
Sharkfin i dont eat them is because im trying to save the sharks, stop the buying stops the killing. 
Actually what im trying to say in my post is, the duckling haven't even come into this world oredi kena eaten.
No wonder people become vegetarians.
But anyway ok, i shall not judge other cultures, cause i also eat meat mah, unless im a vegetarian loh. -
I don't eat sharkfins soup. When buying stop, the killing can too.
-
I love sharksfins soup, I won't stop buying, and won't stop the killing.
-
i wonder if i can get some counterfeit sharksfin going?
gather everyone's fingernails and toenails and flog it as sharksfin... same stuff anyway -
