  One more thing to add, i have personally seen the actual bird nest that was brought back from the mountains back to Singapore.
  
  Although original state is not very tempting, a lot of tedious work will need to be put in to remove the feathers (with a pincer) and impurites such as mud as the bird nest cannot kena water for too long, else it will be soggy and the value will drop..
  

  that also explains the high price of birds nest apart from the harvesting which can be really dangerous too

  hashima is actually fat from the frog oviduct
  
  as for bird nest, it's congealed swallow saliva.. it's black because it's full of ticks, lice, droppings, feathers and whatever the heck they stick

  how about sea cucumber? (hai xing)..
  
  that one is also v nourishing...
  
  my auntie said, women's biggest saviour are sea cucumber and pig trotters..
  
  simi birds nest, hashima etc.. tho v nourishing.. but turn out to be so yucky de..
• zannstar

  btw alot of stuff tt we eat nowadays seem disgusting when 'uncleaned'....
  try looking at animal innards...(b.t.w they still look disgusting even after cooking tho)
  
  and lotsa stuff processed from god knows wat part of wat animal...eg, gelatine=grinding pig bones soaking them in water n boiling it 2 get the end prod....or collagen or some of the vitamins and mineral supplements we take...
  
  u wanna eat nice and pleasant looking food tt retains it hygiene at all levels of processing just eat fruits or vegetables.
