Culinary Adventures Update

Last night I at pig's huff. Fantastic! Aside from the huff, I've also eaten such exotic items as:

A variety of intestines, chicken, pig, cow, and I think goat.
A variety of stomach linings, mostly pig and cow.
Eel.
Pig's ear
Pig's brain (My host mother says "Pig's head is good for your head!")
Fish eyeballs
Pickled chicken foot
Duck foot (very different from chicken foot, due to the webbing between the toes)
The root of a lotus plant
Pickled duck egg
Tofu that smelt (and tasted, i think) like gym socks

I am pretty sure I haven't eaten dog yet, although I can't be certain. It's quite popular around Guizhou, I've heard.
