The Chinese fully embrace this maxim when it comes to cooking animals. This I now know as well as the sun is hot. Tonight's menu included:
Alligator jaw
Pig intestine
Pig ear
Chicken heart
Slugs
And last but not least, chicken colon - which was described to me in broken english (after I swallowed, of course) as "chicken ass", to which I replied with a loud laugh that surprised my host into thinking I was making fun of her english. After I explained the humor in hearing such a word escape her demureness, every hour for the rest of the evening she would turn to the group and say "chicken ass!!" and the whole group of girls would giggle for no less than five minutes.
Tomorrow I'll stick with my chinese kiwi juice, thanks.
