China food that foreigners don't eat

China foods that foreigners don't eat: preserved eggs, stinky tofu, fried silkworm chrysalis, pig brain flowers and hairy eggs.

1, preserved egg

Preserved eggs are a traditional food in China. In the eyes of many foodies, it is a very delicious food with good value. Every time you drink, you should have a plate of preserved eggs with Chili as an appetizer.

But in the eyes of foreigners, it is a rotten egg that is difficult to swallow. Even Mr. Bei, who stood at the top of the food chain, showed a painful expression on his face after he tasted preserved eggs in China. A foreign website directly rated preserved eggs as the most horrible food in the world, and even called them 1000 eggs.

Moreover, preserved eggs look like bad eggs, and the black ones give off a peculiar smell. Some people want to vomit when they smell this kind of food, which leads many foreigners to misunderstand this kind of food.

2. Stinky tofu

As we all know, stinky tofu smells bad, but it tastes delicious. The most famous stinky tofu in China is Changsha stinky tofu. But for foreigners, this is another terrible thing. Some foreigners once held competitions to eat stinky tofu. As expected, many foreigners vomit directly after eating, and some people say that they can't smell anything else.

Step 3 fry silkworm chrysalis

Silkworm pupa, as a kind of folk minority food, is generally used for baking or frying. Although many people are afraid to eat it for the first time, as long as they overcome their psychological fears, they will be impressed by its taste after eating it.

Silkworm pupa tastes crisp and has good nutritional value. But in the eyes of foreigners, it is totally unreasonable to eat this silkworm chrysalis. They will stay away when they see it, so they may miss this delicious food all their lives.

4. Pig brain flower

Being killed is definitely beyond the imagination of foreigners. The industrious and intelligent people in China have given full play to their strong cooking ability, turned pig brain into a very delicious food, and developed various methods. Among them, baked brain flowers and patted brain flowers taste like tofu.

But foreigners think it looks disgusting, mainly because the face value of this dish is too heavy. If you look at the appearance alone, it is simply anti-human. You can think of your own brain at the sight of pig brain flowers. How can I get it? So many foreigners are very resistant to this kind of food. Of course, many people in China can't accept pig brains themselves.

5. furry eggs

The horror of a hairy egg lies not in its taste, but in the so-called hairy egg, which is actually a chicken that has just grown hair. Because it was not hatched successfully and could not be hatched, the locals cooked it and ate it.

After opening the eggshell, you can see not only the chicken, but also the hair and blood on it. When foreigners see this kind of food, they are immediately scared and dare not taste it. Even most people in China say "I dare not eat" after seeing hairy eggs.
