| | Food!!! What are the foods in your country?
In the Philippines, the most common I guess is the adobo and tinola.
Adobo - is commonly made of chicken, others use pork, still others mix both making it a chicken-pork adobo. It's simmered in oil,vinegar, and soy sauce until the soy sauce and vinegar is almost completely absorbed and the oil remains to fry the meat a bit. Others put garlic and onions in it, too.
Tinola - Making tinola, chicken, I saute the meat with onions and garlic, I sometimes add tomato, then add water after, season it with salt add papaya and some pepper leaves.
How about your country's foods.... |

I haven't heard any news about Filipinos eating fetuses or something....
I could say Filipinos eat this balut, it's duck's egg with a developed chick inside (chick - with little feathers). I guess it's boiled and salted. But now there are new ways of eating balut they bread it with flour and fry it.
Chicks, baby ducks, never fetuses, baby men. |

| | Re: Food!!! It's delicious, really! but Foreigners are hesitant to eat it. Seems so gross to them at first but when they tasted, they keep asking for more....
I received an email that people from Japan eats fetuses, I don't somewhat believe it though.  |

| | Re: Food!!! The foetus thing is a myth; someone made some fake photographs and put them on the internet. The claim was that restaurants in Taiwan were serving them. It's a complete lie: Urban Legends Reference Pages: Fetus Eaten by Asians |
