Nonono, i said that I "have" eaten them, not that I do so on a regular basis. At least, I dont think I do. . . 

God only knows WHAT animal the mystery meat was before the cook got her plastic covered hands on it. . .

In China? I ate frog tonight, we often eat shellfish, snails are quite often on our menu too.

 

In the past in other countries, I've eaten, venison, pigeon, rabbit, tuna, grouse, turtle, shark, snake, horse, zebra, antelope, crocodile, warthog (pork with big teeth I suppose), ostrich, was offered monkey but said no to that, (it was on a spit roast and looked for all the world like a little human baby).

 

A lot of the more unusual meats was at a moderately famous restaurant in Nairobi called Carnivores. Horse was in Germany and was lovely, still love that meat.

maggiegirly:

yes,in China.

wow,You eat Frog.thats awesome.I wish my husband would eat frog sometimesLOL,but he found its disgusting.like Chicken feet LOL

I like to eat frog a lot as well.Yummy

I've eaten at Carnivores in Nairobi! It was my first taste of crocodile. Excellent food and atmosphere. We stayed there overnight on our way to Mombasa, eventually taking part in a photo safari down at the Masai Mara Game Reserve. While there, the local tribesmen cooked wilder beast over an open pit (bar-b-que style), and we also had zebra.

Turkey, venison (deer meat), and buffalo (its like a cross between a cow and a yak) are all pretty fantastic. I wish that I could get a hold of them here. As far as some of the stranger local fair is concerned, I'm a little squeamish. I will admit to having ate dog. It wasn't bad. A little gamy for my taste, and I probably won't eat it again.

Octopus meat contains a high proportion of protein, though it may be a stretch to call it meat. The taste is ... well anyway it contains a lot of protein. 

Back home I shot a snake and ate it. It was OK.

I have dog and cat. I eat fur, there always seems to be fur on and in everything.

Chinese beef is not aged, not very good. I not like pork too much. Mostly I eat chicken or duck. I hate fish or things that taste like fish. I had shark once, it was good. almost like pork chop. Too bad most sharks are killed for fins and not eaten. Squid and octopus taste like rubber. Deer is too gamey. Moose is good.

I do not eat beef here in China at all, except perhaps at McDonald's or Burger King.  Even when I buy beef, and even when the vendor swears that it is beef, somehow, somehow, when I cook it, it doesn't smell like beef nor does it taste like beef.  I also have wondered about this...is it horse?  water buffalo?  donkey?  So in the end, I just pass on beef here.

I only eat seafood and birds....and no more pigeon.

This helps me not get suckered into eating messed up things.

I eat more tofu than any man has ever seen.

I like duck alot. I even love duck's neck.

 

I love when crawfish season starts. Early summer nights with crawfish and cold beer outside!

mattsm84:

Up vote for Crawdads. They are excellent with a little bit of melted butter.

Lamb! How has lamb not been mentioned?! I love venison and buffalo - but neither are available where I live at the moment. Also a big thumbs up for duck, but I'm terrible at cooking it so I don't eat it often now I'm not in China. I eat a lot more types of seafood than just fish, most often prawns and squid. Quite a lot of different types of meat actually; although one of the best things I learned living across Asia was that meat doesn't have to be the protein base of a meal - beans, tofu and lentils are now on high rotation in my diet.

The goose in Foshan is by far the most tasty meat I have eaten here.   My friend used to take me to a place there to eat it every night.  I couldn't get enough of it.

Answer of the DayMORE >>
A: Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam bef
A:Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after entry to China.    So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital.   -- icnif77
