Looks yummy doesn't it? But looks can be deceiving. Unless of course you're the type who eats anything. It's stir fried snake! Yikes! I can't even get myself to look at snakes, let alone eat one.
I remember eating a turtle some years back. Yeah... but that was without any knowledge that it was a turtle. I think I was 14 or maybe 16 years old, just woke up from sleep and feeling very hungry. My feet automatically brought me to the kitchen and I saw on the stove, this huge wok with steaming curry in it. The smell was magnificent so I took a bowlful and ate to my heart's content.
Minutes later, my mom (or was it my dad...but it could be one of my sisters too) saying that they didn't know I eat turtles! Haaack... Thuiii!!! I dashed to the sink and tried with all my might to throw up every trace of the dish from my system. I felt so bad and pukey... I just ate a turtle.
How could anyone cook and eat an innocent creature???When it comes to food, I am definitely not the adventurous type. I'd stick with chicken, fish, seafood (except clams) and oink-oink meat. I've heard someone said rabbit meat tastes like chicken. But how could anyone eat rabbits?? They're such cute animals!
And to answer Bain and Emila, no, I have never eaten a Kuda (horse) before!
35 mumbles:
You ate a turtle? GOOD GOD NESSA! LOL!
Urmm, I've eaten rabbit before, just wanted to see how it tastes la ... hehehe ...
And surprisingly that stir fried snake looks yummy ... LOL!
I've been in that situation before. Eating something I don't know. I've seen snake meat before, it looks like fish or maybe eel. But I never eaten before. No way in a million years I would do that. But I've eaten frogs before, taste like chicken. And I've eaten rabbits not by choice, yeah like chicken. Hmm, I don't think I ever eat any turtles before. @_@"""
Oh and grasshoppers are crunchy @_@"""
Bluweeekkkk!!! *soweee* Can't help it... geli ohhh and betul2 nda dapat imagine, I mean, the snakes and turtle... woahhh!!! Ini le bah ni kan, asal pi dapur, buka periuk trus makan... a lesson!! Hehehe...
Pernah bah dulu, one of my mom's friends, bah we called 'aunty' la ni, dia masak 'daging' yang sepatutnya nda bulih dimakan, masak curry, *why must curry ah??* bah I thought beef or something, tsk tsk, menyesal temakan tapi sikit seja, but cukup bikin panas!!
good god! who will eat a horse! horses are for running and looking.. not for eating leee... alamak!
i never eaten a rabbit jugo... they do have rabbit burger at ramly's :D
but the curry above looks manyak delicious jugooooooo.. too bad its snake meat.. yucks!
i think i ate turtle too before when i was a kid.. they didn't tell me what it was.. the soup was hanyir.. gosh! i can still remember the smell... it was suppose to cure my asthma.. tapi tak tau it works or not.. cos i told mom i never want to eat another turtle ever.
eeww,.that's a snake? there's go my appetite.
oink oink? you make it sound cute Neesa. LOL!
Yikes... snake?!.. turtle?!! ptui indeed!!and I can never bring myself to eat rabbit too, and deer and eel... i can't even eat catfish!!!
LOL @ oink oink meat!
I've never eaten a turtle...how was it before u realized it was turtle???
Aiyoooo fried snake this one? Yucks..no thank you for me too...cannot la... :(
I took rabbit meat before. Tasted good, someone ordered this dish not my parents but I just tried and ate a few more...
But pitty all the animals, they all have life, not that rabbit is cute and shouldn't deserve to be eaten, I mean we must judge by the content but not the cover.
If so, come we become a true calling vegetarian of the above!
:o the idea of having horse meat is much more better than snake!
lol nessa!!! hehe i tak pernah tengok orang makan kuda! No worries, I know you won't eat kuda one hehehehe
Spiff ~ Yes, I did. I'm sure the turtle god has forgiven me... i'm inesen OK :P
So how was the rabbits?? sedap ka? :$
Mas ~ Owh, now i remember! I have eaten frogs before but i don't find them gross. Ya, taste a bit like chicken, loved frog porridge those days but now i don't think so. no way!!
Haha... i'm sure those grasshoppers are crunchy. they do smell nice kana panggang... but i don't dare to eat them la!
Crystal ~ Bluweekkkk indeed!! LOL!
I think kari jadi pilihan sbb it's spicy and boleh mengurang rasa honsi/hanyir. Betul tu, beringat la kalau buka periuk... jangan trus hantam the food, mo kana tanya dulu si tukang masak... hehe
kesian ko temakan daging yang nda sepatutnya buli dimakan... tapi buli dimaafkan baitu sbb nda sengaja.
Anny ~ Nampak so sedap kan... but once you know it's snake, my selera go 'poof!'
i think if no choice we would have to eat them. but i hope it won't get to that level. i'd gladly eat grass than eat horses, rabbits and turtles!
Itulah, why didn't tell them to cook the turtle curry style?? :P
Munira ~ Yup, stir fired snake! macam susah nak pecaye kan... hehe
Oink! Oink! Sounds better and cuter dat way :D
LJ ~ Hahaha... memang ptuiii!!
I think i've eaten eels and catfish before tapi dat was when i was a lil kiddo, mak suap kita makan la... hehe
Marzie ~ Urmmm... before i knew it was a turtle, i think it tasted like normal kari but the meat was kinda tough and not much daging, macam banyak tulang!! Uwekkkk... ewwwww... uwahhhh!!
yalor, fried snake... looks like fried sotong to me la.
Yoon See ~ I need strength and willpower to become a vegetarian. I wouldn't mind eating sayur only... maybe dat way I could lose some weight and be trim and slim :D
Emila ~ Tapi kalau I diberi pilihan, dua-dua pun tak mau :*(
Daging kuda is considered taboo in some cultures. Some say it's even poisonous. Ni sumber dari wikipidia.
I just stick to chicken, fish & sometimes lamb. Eating a rabbit makes me feel like eating a pet dog, that's harsh & torturing! :-(
I've never eaten a turtle or snake but I've tasted biawak soup before Nessa :-P
Oh my that did look really good until I read what it was...lol
Turtle huh? yuck
Dora ~ Oh yes, lamb is cute! :) I've eaten lambs before... lamb-chop but whenever I ate it, it alwes leaves a weird taste in my mouth.
yep, pets are not meant to be eaten. I haven't eaten a dog before... they say the meat is 'heaty'.
Monica ~ Biawak???!! OMG, hebat la you makan biawak. Biawak scary la Mon... it's like eating a big lizard, no?
Ann ~ I think this dish is famous in China. They say eating snake meat cures all kinds of ailments... dunno if it's true or not.
Yep, turtle... yuck is the right word for it :(
Opps... sorry Nessa, I do not mean u r harsh ok? hehehe :-)
No worries Dora :D
turtle? serious aaar? I think they are cute too (remember Finding Nemo)
Khemy ~ Seriuss ni termakan turtle. I don even want to ingat how it tasted :(
Yalor, so cute especially the baby turtle yang talkative tu!
