Pig's Penis...Anyone?
Pig's Penis…Anyone?

I find myself unable to resist the temptation to sample freakishly weird foods.

That’s why when I see something like skewers of pig’s penis twirled around a stick in China, I have to try it. After ordering a skewer of the pinkish flesh the guy grilled it up to a crisp. It was definitely chewy.

    Errrm, you’ve not sold me on this one…’definitely chewy.’ Eww, I can just imagine how chewy it was. I love a bit of pork but think I’d give this one a miss. 😉

    I don’t know if I could muscle up the nerves to eat them to be honest. There are some things that I just couldn’t imagine eating. I’m not generally squeamish with food but this might just be the one of a few exceptions! 😛

      Hehe, the flavor was really tasty, just the texture was a little chewy…!

    Hmmm, I haven’t tried one but I did it a crispy tail. Have you tried a Cow’s Penis, Testicles, and a Tongue? u should try because they are meaty…

      Thanks for the comment Erice. I’ve had goat testicles, but not cow testicles. I do love cow tongue, some of the best meat!
