there are a few odd foods here as well, though by chinese standard, the food is pretty tame. it is the northern chinese that eat the really crazy food.
the oddest local food is pig organs and that isn't all that odd. a short trip to malaysia and you can visit markets with insects piled high like a north american fruit market.
then again, if some the westerners i know are to counted as average, they would consider most of the food here to be off the menu just because it's a bit spicy or a bit different from 'good ole meat and two veg'.
