I dunno what you lot are gunna complain about next, maybe we should be sure to coat chicken hearts in 11 secret herbs and spices before deep frying them too? Serve pigs ear with ranch dressing perhaps? Cheez wizz on the hainan chicken?

The CSPAM genocide-denial derail is boring, I still want to understand what's the go with moaning about bones in your meat. Do you just absolutely hork your food down, double-fisting it like a seppo going to town on a big plate of nuggies? It's not hard to eat around the bones or to spit out the little bits.

Terminal autist posted:So what radicalized everyone here? When I found out the devious mainlanders stooped to cutting up drumsticks with cleavers. Nobody who does that could be even remotely trustworthy. Real countries do everything boneless so you can just inhale your food. Either that or growing up with mostly taiwanese and honkie friends, with the Taiwanese living under threat of invasion while Hong Kong just slowly got worse and worse until we came to the situation now. While a few mainlanders I know couldn't even understand Taiwan is a different country.

Nothing says patriotism quite like participating in the wholesale destruction of your country's judicial and legislative systems so the authoritarian, unelected government of a larger neighbouring country can take over faster.

The Moon Monster posted:Question for the China thread re: fowl bone shards. What's the proper etiquette for eating a chunk of duck, roughly 4x "bite size", floating in a bowl of soup, that's like 60% bone by volume? Just hold it up with your chop sticks and daintily nibble the meat off of it? I think I'd need to spend a week at chopstick boot camp to manage that without dropping it 5 times. For most people yeah you just hold it with your chopsticks and eat the meat off it, you can briefly hold the piece in your mouth while you reposition them too. If you're some giant weirdo though you just have a meltdown about bones in your meat, then probably storm off to hoover up a plate of tendies.

I like soondae guk and last time I was there the old village ladies were stewing thick thick slices of pork belly over a wooden fire then giving them to me with old kimchi and a shot of soju, that was pretty tasty with the acid in the kimchi working with the juicy fatty pork. But korean food every day wears thin pretty quick.

Love the korean spoons but gently caress the chopsticks they're really unpleasant to use. The honkers I know use the round metal ones which aren't as bad as korean ones but still less pleasant to use than proper wood or melamine ones. Using your spoon for rice is p much cheating too. Also having a lol at how massive a meltdown some of the sad weirdos who whine about bones in their food would have if they were given bone chopsticks to use.
