Kent's Wriggling Lunch



Food is a Cantonese talking point--everything is eaten here, no waste. It is said that in Guangzhou nothing with four legs is not eaten except a table. That means every part of every animal. A trip to the fish market is like a strange biology class, there are things here that I have never seen before!

The snake in the picture ended up specially cooked, imagine getting the serpent home in your shopping bag and alive at that! The health benefits are stressed but not always convincing. I may just hug my pillow and do a lot of strange dreaming tonight!
