Biff, in northern China, a plate full of steamed chickens’ asses are a premo dish. here in US, I get annoyed when I find the ass hasn’t been removed prior to cooking

CH – so true! that must have been a scary time of your life if all you could manage to eat was yogurt!

well yes there are lots of fatties here in NYC – I think I was speaking of what I see on TV – that’s all

Cobble, you look pretty thin already. You would be a stick if you lost 15 pounds.

Regarding pork bellies, I can’t stand the taste and texture of fat. That’s why I typically get filet mignon versus other cuts of steak. I was amazed one time when a bunch of former colleagues went to Churrascaria Plataforma (sp?) and people were fighting over who got to eat big fork fulls of pure fat. It’s like eating really odd tasting jello to me that I know is awful for my health. However, I feel like I’m somehow missing out by not enjoying it more.

Thanks etson. I know they are mostly resort town but the cruise was super cheap and I just plan to wander around, eat good food, drink good wine and look at architecture. I am not much of a museum type anyways and already been to other parts of Spain anyway.

I have an urban person’s desire NOT TO KNOW anything about my non-vegetarian food. (…..boohoo..ewww….)
