Food Continued

Let's face it. I will never be as adventurous as Eric. They knew better than to offer me locust or cockroaches. I passed up eel. But I did try my first fresh water hairy crab.

I also had to bypass watching people when we ate. I had removed the vision of everyone double dipping their chopsticks in the community dishes. Our host would order a large variety of entrees and they would be put on a rotating shelf in the middle of the table. You would take a little and eat it and then take a little more. It was quite a germ-sharing experience at every meal.
