So on our way back from the Great Wall of China<\/a> Kristy and I were dropped off at this food market in Beijing, China. Now I have heard of the Chinese eating weird things, but I definitely did not expect this!<\/p>\n

There were so many weird things to try and trust me, people were eating them all! (not raw of course). You would actually purchase the item and then they BBQ it for you and sometimes add sauces and flavorings. Yum, Yum.<\/p>\n

\"Bugs.<\/p>\n

\"Uh.....\"<\/p>\n

\"Starfish<\/p>\n

\"Scorpion?\"<\/p>\n

Needless to say I was NOT brave enough to attempt eating anything other than some Tako Yaki (deep fried octopus), some pork dumplings and some bites of Kristy’s mystery meat wrap (I think it was beef). Oh yes, and we tried candied strawberries which where ridiculously sweet, and yet still very genetically satisfying :\/<\/p>\n
