Mice vodka in China
© Bartłomiej Magierowski
I've seen various things to eat in China, I've eaten shrimps submerged alive in alcohol, I've eaten roasted goose head, crispy duck tongues, there's already been a photo of a dog... but I've never seen vodka with mice. A Chinese friend told me it was for strength. It's a "still life". I wonder how they peeled the hair off these mice? Don't immediately think that the Chinese are such barbarians, this is their food culture. Nothing is wasted, and turtles, dogs, snakes, lizards and mice contain many nutritional values. They believe that it helps with potency, strengthens the heart, improves circulation, etc. Photo taken in a mountain village, near Guangzhou (Guangzhou). People offer many gifts of nature there, mainly honey and bamboo products, but also drinks.

Niesamowite! Wczoraj oglądałem program o Chinach na Discovery Channel. Całkowicie zmieniłem zdanie na temat tego kraju. Masz rację. To, co w Polsce mówi się, pisze o Chinach to zazwyczaj stek bzdur. Chciałbym się kiedyś wybrać do Chin. Pozdrawiam!
