"stinky tofu" ever had it? another item in long list of weird things to eat. smells like shit. looks like tofu. quite a combination. it's quite a chinese creation. a little block of innocuous tofu, just waiting to challenge your ideas of edible and non-edible. i myself have never tried it. out of respect for my olfactory senses. not to mention my mouth. but this weekend, i was presented with the most horrifically pungent piece of stinky tofu i'd ever seen. and i was forced to "taste" it because one of the "gei-gei's" fed it to me, and one cannot refuse a girl who is willing to stick stuff in your mouth. be it grapes, socks or stinky tofu. the tofu tasted like....surprise!....shit. if you've never had ass, and who has really? try this. it's the same. probably better for you too. nutrient wise. it's soy, and soy is a healthy alternative to real food.



i had to down a glass of beer, a glass of coke and two cigarettes (in that order) to get rid of the taste. oh my goshies it was horrid. they should import this stuff to spread on bagels. or for people to wear as perfume, to remain chaste and single forever. it would make a killing in religious circles. oh wait, i am going to be single forever, who needs stinky tofu? seriously though. tasted like ass. take the pepsi challenge, try it. they wanted me to bring back a block to let "all of my ignorant american friends" try. but i assured them you guys were happy being ignorant and american. and if i brought back a hunk of stinky stuff for you to enjoy, we would no longer be friends. i swear the chinese could have driven out all the foreigner invaders if we had used this stuff instead of building a wall. stupid ancestors.



we did have nice fish though. piles and piles of sashimi and grilled trout. at a little restaurant by the lake, right after we tobogganed down from the great wall. at the lake, you could take your little bamboo stick, drop the hook and bait into the water, and then catch a trout to eat. these were the stupidest damn trout ever. hordes of them would flock over to investigate your hook. it was like shooting ducks in a barrel. bang bang bang. we caught fifteen in ten minutes. not a great feat actually, considering you probably could of hand caught a trout, there were so many. all fishing should ultimately be this rewarding. then i watched them gut all the fish, chill it and serve it right to the table. and nobody else liked sashimi much so i stuffed myself something silly. then they brought out the racks of grilled trout. and i stuffed myself silly some more. and then i was coerced into stinky tofu. you win some, you lose alot.
