RE: Is Chinese Food Really Strange & Bizarre?
Tripe is something I have gotten used to. That's really wild about the lobsters being served to prisoners. I never heard about that before.
The brain is a little too much for me too. I tried eating duck brains and the taste is too strong lol.
Yeah interesting article about it...

"Lobster was also commonly served in prisons, much to the displeasure of inmates. American lobster was initially deemed worthy only of being used as fertilizer or fish bait, and until well into the 20th century, it was not viewed as more than a low-priced canned staple food."
