Hi all,
Just been to North China, what did they feed me

snails by the kilos... fried with chillies and garlic...
taste good and am still ok ...
next dish was fried cicadas - deep fried ! they got plenty there that slit trunks of their pear trees for
mating.. imagine that ..close my eyes, down it with cool beers

This part of China are all the fruits orchards .. many species of pears, peaches, dates..maizes, wheat,
so there are plenty of insects too. .. you can't beat them, you eat them ! Chinese way

In Beijing, frens fed me with fried scorpions !
