Chinese food!

[mavreenrose]

hehe I thought this was about chinese food! =) now this has become a discussion on eating dogs..

but i did eat dog meat once. huhuhu..

My father tricked me. I thought it was caldereta (Filipino beef stew).. turned out it was azucena (pretty much the same recipe except that it's dog meat). And I had several helpings of it too!

Actually, it's not bad at all.

I used to own gerbils, they are so cute...

Oh and where is a conversastion about Chinese food (I *love* it) without MSG?
When we lived near Boston my husband and I went to Chinatown frequently. And we saw a bag of MSG...


It is a white powder BTW and is unbelievably bad for you...our favorite Chinese restaurant The New Great Wall serves its food without it but I am health unconscious enough not to care. Ans raamen noodles...we get the authentic ones from Chinatown...nothing but the best badness for us!

Oh and the *real* stuff is good...I have had dim sum in an authentic Chinese restaurant with a Japanese friend...I was the the only white person there...good stuff but I don't recommend the chicken feet...three breaded toes...

oh and I *may* try dog...cat, no.

My understanding is that after having been on a red meat diet for so long a switch to lots of salmon caused intestinal distress (along with other issues), so it was a case of eat salmon and have the runs or trade for dog and hope that helped.

My son in law goes to Japan for work... He learned to eat first then ask what he ate he sometimes couldn't do it the other way...:}
