My typical dinner is to go to a restaurant and point to the menu on the wall and say give me that...
One day I ordered something called "san ji"... it's a very spicy soup
It has coagulated cow's blood in it. |

| Not Korean, but raw sea cucumber at a sushi joint was a unique experience. |

In Korea:
raw liver
live minnows
live shrimp
silkworm larvae -- everybody's favorite
Ahhh, it all seems normal now. |

Just bundaegi and boshintang. Liked neither. Oh, and Dak Bal. Didn't like that either.
I have seen soup with the congealed blood in it. Bleah. |

Beondaegi (aka silkworm pupae) rocks. Can't get enough of the stuff.
How could you eat liver? The liver is a filter. Jeez. Might as well chew on a Brita water filter for dessert while you're at it. |

BBQed Dog Meat - Opinion: Good!
Still moving Octopus - Opinion: Good !
Boiled Silk Worms - Opinion: Bad !
Dog Meat Soup - Opinion: O.K. (Liked BBQ better)

 It's about the foulest smelling substance around. I ate some while on a bender a few years ago and it came right back up. My wife loves them.
Wife: Ooooooooooo Beondaegi!
Me: Bugs....gross.
Wife: They aren't bugs!
Me: They aren't?
Wife: They're food.
Me: Is a caterpillar a bug?
Wife: Yes!
Me: Is a moth or butterfly a bug?
Wife: Yes!
Me: So what is in between a caterpiller and a moth?
Wife: Food!
Me: Ahhhhhhhhhhhrgh! Fine. But if you eat that stuff keep your lips away from mine 'till you've brushed your teeth.
Wife: (Pouts) But they aren't bugs!
Me: I give up! |

Kimchi is first
Dog soup is second
Those street waffles are third - just the smell makes me want to vomit  |

Sashimi with gold flake.
Like when you accidentally chew some tinfoil... BZZZZZTKERCHANG.
Oh, and at seafood BBQ, a giant, huge shellfish- kind of like a clam, cooked in the shell. Then open it, and whammy, a piece of meat the size of an almond... |
