Had to google durian fruit. Here goes...Grown in many countries across tropical South East Asia, the spiky, stinky durian is an acquired taste. The fruit is loved and loathed in equal measure. Eating durian is banned in many outdoor spaces throughout Singapore and carrying it is prohibited on public transport because of its smell. The pulp of a ripe durian emits an unusually potent and very persistent smell that is reminiscent of rotten onions.

Google cats reacting to durian fruit. That's some funny sh!t right there!!!!

That's hilarious!!!!

When we were in China at a "nice" dinner with some new Chinese colleagues, the waiter brought out an aquarium on wheels and had my dh choose the fish he wanted to eat; I thought this was to prove it was fresh. A short time later the waiter came back and put the plate in front of dh. The middle of the fish was cooked, but head and tail were still on it and it was STILL MOVING. Its mouth was opening and closing and the head and tail were going up and down on the plate.

I screamed and pushed back my chair and rushed out of the restaurant. Dh apparently told our hosts it was because I was pregnant. He thinks I was rude.

We carefully cut off top of scull of monkey while still alive and eat the warm monkey brain.

Seriously? Was this in Asia?

It was in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

I haven't seen the films; I also thought this was a true story. Phew.

This makes me want to cry. Ugh. I guess it would be too rude to decline to eat it, in that context?

That's a Korean thing. I wish they would stop. So cruel to poor thing.

How is it killed if its still moving? More like eaten alive.

I grew up poor and we had major pest issue in our house. Remember getting half-way through meals and too often finding whole or parts of roaches in the food.

Thats a city issue not a poor issue. Arlington condos have gazillion of roaches.

I ate a fish eye by accident. Wasn’t paying attention at tense dinner party.
Also hate chitlins.

It was anticucho. The taste was bad enough but then when my wife told me what it was, I almost threw up.

What is anticucho?

Offal. Specifically heart. At least that’s what I seem to end up with. I like anticuchos. I ate them when I lived in the Andes and I’ve ordered them twice at a restaurant in Rockville.

A crunchy fly in a beverage. I wondered what the crunchy thing was so I spit it out - dead fly.
