Tripe actually doesn't taste like much. It's just a little stingy and chewier than noodles. It does look kind of weird in the bowl, but most of the Pho shacks I go to tailor at least half their business to Vietnamese ex-pats who must be craving that back-home goodness.
Like I said, I wouldn't go out of my way to order it, but if it's there I'll eat it. But I'm probably the least fussy eater I've ever met. The only food I genuinely don't like is chocolate, and I can still tolerate milk chocolate in doses.
one gourmet said the taste of blood in your mouth as the bones cut it up provided the final orgasmic touch of flavor
We're talking about raw baby birds, right? I think blood would be about all you'd taste. That's fucking disgusting. I love a rare steak, but I don't want drowned raw baby birds.

No, I believe you. I've eaten some crazy things in other countries, raw live octopus and fried scorpions come to mind.
I was just hoping for a picture of some dude in a berret with a funny mustache chowing down. :winky:

No, the bird is cooked. The blood is yours from the bones cutting up your mouth as you eat it.
Every seen the faces of death movie series, they have a movie of people doing it in there. So I know at least some people in China have done it, and it does happen. Cause I've seen it, and it's, well odd.
I wouldn't call it wide spread though.
EDIT- the "they eat babies" was a hoax, those were just skinned monkies and the bones of a monkey that people thought were babies and went balastic over.

That actually somehow manages to be WORSE.
When I had the live octopus you had to chew it up really good or the suction cups attach while going down your gullet and you choke to death.
Preparations vary: Some hearts are served up as a little raw tidbit, still-beating, to be chased down with a slug of cobra blood.
Anthony Bourdain stirred up a bit of attention a few years ago when he sampled it this way and wrote about it in “A Cook's Tour,” a feat captured for TV posterity. Other hearts are dropped into a glass of rice wine and slurped down as a rather gruesome drink garnish.
Chef Gordon Ramsay, after challenging journalist James May to sample three "delicacies" (Laotian snake whiskey, bull penis, and hákarl), finally vomited after eating hákarl, although May kept his down. May's only reaction was "You disappoint me, Ramsay."[1]
* Kæstur hákarl, putrefied Greenland shark
* Súrsaðir hrútspungar, the testicles of rams pressed in blocks, boiled and cured in lactic acid.
* Svið, singed and boiled sheep heads, sometimes cured in lactic acid
* Sviðasulta, head cheese or brawn made from svið, sometimes cured in lactic acid
* Lifrarpylsa (liver sausage), a pudding made from liver and suet of sheep kneaded with rye flour and oats
* Blóðmör (blood-suet; also known as slátur, meaning slaughter), a type of blood pudding, which is made from lamb's blood and suet, kneaded with rye flour and oats
* Harðfiskur, wind-dried fish (often cod, haddock or seawolf), served with butter
* Rúgbrauð (rye bread), traditional Icelandic rye bread
* Hangikjöt, (hung meat), smoked and boiled lamb or mutton, sometimes also eaten raw.
* Lundabaggi, sheep’s loins wrapped in the meat from the sides, pressed and cured in lactic acid
* Selshreifar, seal's flippers cured in lactic acid

The dish, by modern culinary standards, is nothing but rotten salmon heads, albeit treasured tribal fare. Imagine, a bucket load of large King Salmon heads left outside during the warm summer months for a few weeks….Outside the native Alaskan culture the stink head topic is nothing but a novelty, but health-wise the tradition of stink head consumption poses a real and continued challenge to regional Alaskan healthcare professionals faced with frequent and, sometimes serious, totally avoidable botulism cases.
Why do that with the salmon heads? Why not just pan fry them up? Or use them to make fish stock? I just see no reason for making this disgusting thing.

Baby mice wine is a traditional Korean health drink, which is brewed by drowning alive baby mice, maximum three days old, in rice moonshine and letting them to ferment in the bottle for about a year. According to local Korean belief, mouse wine is a cure to just about any illness imaginable, includin asthma and liver problems among others.

I imagine any animal drowned in liquor would release its bowels soon after death. So the Koreans are drinking mouse urine....

Steeped: A large venomous snake can be placed into a glass jar of rice wine, sometimes with smaller snakes and medicinal herbs and left to steep for many months. The wine is drunk as a restorative in small shots or cups.
Mixed: Body fluids of snake are mixed into wine and consumed immediately in the form of a shot. Snake blood wine is prepared by slicing a snake along its belly and draining its blood directly into the drinking vessel filled with rice wine or grain alcohol. Snake bile wine is done through a similar method by using the contents of the gall bladder.

When I lived in Hong Kong there was a shop/stall outside my apartment that would sell the Mouse Wine every couple of weeks. I imagine a whole bottle is quite expensive so people would just buy a shot glass of the stuff. Fucking creepy.
So how is this food snob thing working for you? Does the thought that you will get to spend 10 more years than the rest of us in an old folks home getting your diapers changed by strangers really thrill you so much that you would avoid all the tasty yummy food that life has to offer? I mean seriously there is this thing called moderation where you can eat both bland food and food that tastes good and still be reasonably healthy. Plus no one likes a snob.
It's possible that he eats unhealthy food as well, albeit not from chain fast food restaurants that assemble their products with an eye for efficiency first and taste second.
How do you come to conclusion that dead mice are some kind of panacea anyway? Is it just the fact that it's so bizarre that it resembles a witch's brew, thereby lending the concoction a magical kind of air?

What about the brains of a live, but drunk monkey!

No, the bird is cooked. The blood is yours from the bones cutting up your mouth as you eat it.

though i'm pretty sure sticking that many mice in a bottle is flirting with statistics
