Bat soup, delicious!

I have to say I’m not a big fan of exotic foods, but I’m sure I’d at least try some of them if I didn’t know what they were. But to take a whole bat and dump it in a pot of soup, then dump it in my plate…now that’s just disgusting. Apparently in the islands of Palau this is a delicacy and some tourists, like the lady in the photo, actually have the guts to try it.

Been there, done that, though the place I went to prepared it differently. Tastes sort of like gamey pork.

Come to think of it, I was in Korea years ago, and she and I got to eat each other.. Maybe that was on her mind, when I used to say, eat my bat…

They do these at my local Chinese Take Away. They’re delicious. Fur is a bit chewy though!
