Don't know whether to say, yummy, or yuk because links often don't show up on my iPad. It's quite odd reading the responses and wondering what everyone is talking about :confused:

Having watched it, I wish I had an ipad then it wouldn't have shown up.

I'll try anything once and have tried the odd unconventional treat but this is one I'd skip thank you very much, despite the very dubious claims of health benefits

You're not going to tell me, are you?

But, based on your comments, I'm going to say no thank you.

I'm certain despite your curiosity, that you're better off not knowing.

What do they say ? Once seen, never unseen ?

Every culture through the ages has had these little delicacies, some of which seem a little strange to other cultures. I don't understand however, how anybody could of imagined that this would be an acceptable snack, given the source of the cooking medium. Its bizarre in the extreme. Grotesque !

Well, you insisted.

A traditional (yeah they always add that bit) delicacy, made by cooking eggs in urine collected by young boys - preferably under 10, collected from the local school (I don't even want to know how). The eggs are boiled for 24 hours and wouldnt you know it, there are health benefits.

Thanks but I'll suffer without them if that's all the same to the Chinese Health System

It might be a taste treat in China, but I ain't tasting it.

Jimmie Won Ton Ho Me was kept after school for the fourth time this week for not contributing before the final school bell sounded.

His mother said, “I simply do not understand what is wrong with the boy. He's awfully generous at home. I blame it on his father who refuses to reprimand the boy for lavish fondling of himself. I'd scold him myself”, she continued, “but it's not a mother's place to discuss such things.”

Jimmie's father – an unemployed fish monger – is rumoured to have had excessive acne as a teenager but he has failed to make himself available for comment on the accusation.
