Nodding Acquaintace With Hepa and Salmonella


Hong Kong street food is relatively cleaner, but sometimes, it's that extra filth, extra danger of potentially contracting diseases that makes it more appealing. My personal favorite is the pig innards with some unknown vegetables tossed altogether into a cup big enough to fill two growling stomachs. The special sauces, which are bloody red in color add an extra 'ommmph' and render a disgustingly, fearfactoresque, 'fresh-off-the-abbatoir' effect. It costs 15HK$.
I swear If I were in the Philippines, I would have bought two servings of rice for my utter satisfaction. It is best when washed down with water chestnut that tastes weird and pulpy.
See people? not only in the Philippines do people feast on animal parts that are supposed to be thrown away. Its a worldwide obsession!
