This cuisine is such a very expansive and only affordable for rich people. These people sometimes ordered this dish just to prove their richness and bravery, even they can not sallow a single bite of it.

For my opinion this dish is no way a tradition cuisine. Monkeys usually located in many Asia country, yet the Monkey brains is never been on any menu in any local store, legally or illegally. I bet they are prohibited though. If i be you, i would never eat this dish because the monkey look very cute!

Many of you did not know how was this dish been prepared for customer right? so, each monkey was alive in a small wooden box with it's shaved head sticking out. Each of the customer received a hammer, knife, and a large spoon. the hammer used to knock the monkey until the monkey die. The knife is used to cut the monkey brain and the spoon is used to take the brain out from the monkey's head.

Why u should not eat this dish is because it is kinda risky for your health. It is high of fat, it also can cause creutzfeldt-zakod disease and other prion disease in human.

what does it taste like? it taste a bit mushy and too salty. As you guys know that high of salt can cause high blood pressure.

Live Cobra's Heart

COBRA 

LIVE COBRA'S HEART

Cobra means poisonous snake that can spread out the skin at the back of its snake . Cobras live in India and Africa .

Live Cobra Heart is not a common thing to eat but some in Vietnam do it. ''Many young tourists come to Vietnam and think that this kind of activity is part of Vietnamese culture'' . Said Nguyen Tam Thank of Animal Asia in a statement . This is not part of modern Vietnam and the fact that it survives at all is largely down the tourist trade''

The Vietnamese eat live cobra's heart raw and uncooked . To prepare this dish they will wash the cobra's heart with the cobra's blood . People who eat this dish think that they will endure the powers and strenght of the cobra and so , they don't even clean it , just swallow it whole , while it is still beating . This dish is definitely not far the faint- heated .

Cobra Heart is edible but the blood is vicious . In addition , drinking snake blood , eating its heart is the trendy thing to do far western tourists in  Vietnam . Animal Asia is now running a campaign against it , calling it ''barbaric'' .

Those who follow the teaching of Islam are not allowed to eat cobra heart because it is not halal . Practising Muslim can not eat any animals which eat other animals , such as these reptiles . Prohibited for Muslim yet it is allowed for other religion . 

Some people might like to give a try some adventures food . We recommend you guy to try live cobra heart . It might sound a little bit weird but just to gain some more experience of eating it . Why not ? who knows you guys might fall for its if you guys come to Asia country try to find some . Good luck and have fun !

Eating Frog's Legs

FROGS IN A RESTAURANT

                  It happened when monks assert themselves grown too fat , church jurisdiction suggest them not to eat meat on a certain day a year . The monks said frog didn't qualified as a fish and it is didn't count as a meat . A national delicacy was born when hungry French peasants followed the monks example .

                   These cuisine also eaten in other part of the world such as Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia etc. Based on my review, most of people love eating frog's legs because it tastes good. Some of them said it tastes like fish and chicken. Meanwhile, the texture of the meat is mild. It can be cooked in variety of methods such as deep fried, steam, grilled and etc.

              Indonesia constitute the world's largest exporter and consumer of frog's legs. Many of you did not know that a frog's leg contain high of protein, and only have 0.3 grams of fats compared to 3 grams of grilled chicken breast. they also rich of source of omega-3, fatty acid, potassium and vitamin A which is good for our health. 

              The Chinese believe, if you are eating frog's legs while pregnancy will make babies develop strong legs. They also believe that the frog's legs consider as good luck.

            Lastly, frog is the little green thing that eats disease-caring mosquitoes and water-consuming algae. Their skin secretions have been proven to combat some viruses. However, the festival and  tradition of eating frog's legs must be stopped. FL have a frog eating festival each year. The festival is responsible for the death of 80,000 of frogs each year. Thus, we need frogs and frogs need their legs to stay alive. Together we stand to help the frog!
