snake wine - Southeast Asia After how many "treats" a glass of wine we need, but to match the above menu will open a bottle of fine wine snake. This is rice wine, in which a poisonous snake is sinking and some of the blood, which gives it a slightly pinkish color. The snake is allowed to soak into the bottle for several months, until dissolved venom in wine. No need to worry, however, as the ethanol makes the poison inactive while this wine is not only dangerous but supposedly is beneficial to health. The snake wine began to be produced in Vietnam, but now has spread to other parts of Southeast Asia.

Certainly show great care in cooking as if not cooked well can be dangerous consumption. by in their
Tuna eyeball Japan Although it sounds nasty, apparently it s rather tame, tasting pretty similar to squid or octopus. None of the gunk you d normally associate with slicing up eyeballs then?
100 or 1000 year old egg/century egg/millenium egg China Yeah, OK, it s neither a century nor a millennium old, but this egg is pretty rotten. After being preserved in a mixture of clay, ash and quicklime for a few months, the yolk turns a dark green or even black and slimy while the white has turns to a dark brown translucent jelly. Apparently it smells of strongly of sulphur and ammonia, but tastes like a hardboiled egg until you breathe out that is.
Tequila worm Mexico Not actually found in tequila but rather it s cheaper cousin, mescal, it s said that the legendary hallucinogenic properties of the worm are pretty much non- existent. All a marketing gimmick, you fools.
Starfish China Served dry and covered in hard and spiny armour, this isn t a snack you want to bite into. According to online accounts, you want to break of a leg and peel open the skin to get at the green coloured meat inside. Hopefully it won t regenerate in your stomach
Balut Philippines A developing duck embryo that s boiled alive in its shell. As well as sounding incredibly harsh, it looks incredibly unappetising. Still, it s a common street food and is usually served with beers. Can t say I have the stomach for it.
