What strange foods are there in China?

1. Jinhua's boy boiled eggs in urine.

It is estimated that many people have seen it in some movies, TV shows and literary works, and boy urine can be used as medicine. In Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, there is really such a delicious food, that is, boiled eggs with boy urine.

In the local area, this is a well-known delicacy. Generally, in the spring, many rural families will collect urine from children under 5 years old and then use it to cook eggs. Some families have no children, and they will go to the kindergarten to queue up to pick up the urine.

They are also particular about the urine of children, which must belong to boys under 5 years old, and then put it in a pot for two days and one night. Cooked eggs can't be eaten immediately, so they must be cooled the next day and then baked in the fire before eating. In order to make the eggs more tasty, some people will deliberately break the eggs after they are cooked and continue to cook.

2. Nanjing: live beads

I believe many people are familiar with live beads. Even if they haven't eaten them, many people have eaten them. Live beads are a specialty food in Nanjing, that is, chickens that have not yet formed. Chicken wings, chicken heads and chicken feet have been clearly formed in eggs. There is a saying circulating on the Internet that if you want to test whether a person is an old Nanjing native, just take him to eat live beads.

Nanjing people's love for live beads can be said to be deep in their bones! Living beads have existed in the streets and alleys of Nanjing since the Qing Dynasty. But then again, it is unacceptable for outsiders to tell the truth about live beads. After all, how can you eat a chicken that is gradually taking shape?
