We Chinese people’s love for food is ranked among the best in the world.
Anything that flies in the sky, swims in the water, or crawls on the ground, as long as it doesn't kill anyone, it can definitely be made into a delicacy on the dining table.
Many creatures that invaded China in history were eventually eaten alive by us and became endangered animals. Among them, the famous crayfish is an example. Because it is so loved by the Chinese people, it now relies on a large number of artificial breeding.
But there is a kind of fish called scavenger that no one dares to eat in China. Even the foodies who usually love it are giving up.
The scavenger is a very tenacious fish. No matter how harsh the environment it is in, it can survive by eating the feces or carcasses of other fish. However, because its diet is relatively complex, its meat is very rough and tastes bad.
It's very good, so Chinese people don't like to eat it. They only buy it occasionally and use it to clean up the feces of some ornamental fish.
Although the scavenger is not popular in the eyes of the Chinese, the Indians say that compared with other ordinary fish, the scavenger has more bones but is also chewier. They clean the scavenger and put it directly on the fire rack.
Roast it, dip it in sauce and eat it. Even many Indian children regard scavenger as a delicacy.
Fortunately, this fish has a strong reproductive capacity, otherwise it would probably have been eaten by Indians with a large population and become a protected animal!
In fact, everyone's taste is different, and the eating habits of each country are also different.
What we Chinese like to eat may not be delicious to people from other countries.
On the other hand, what other countries consider delicacies may be unpalatable to us.
In short, respect everyone's eating habits.
