Plateful of good reading

Deep End Dining, a site devoted to eating the strange and unusual, has a few excellent articles about eating American versions of some of the food that I like here.

Stinky Tofu, which I like a lot.

Delicious Thousand Year Egg Congee, which is my favorite type of congee.

My girlfriend always looks at me strangely when I eat Chicken Feet (though I would add, the nails are not always clipped).

One extremely funny post regards a Korean specialty, rather than a Chinese one, but I thought I would include the article anyway.  It's about eating live octopus tentacles.

Just a 'lurker' here - I wanted to say hello and thank you for writing.
I live in California but can imagine spending an extended period in Taiwan. Beautiful place and best food ever!

Thanks again,
Tessa

For the most part, i agree. I am not sure what is so terrible about stinky tofu or chicken feet that might inspire an article, but that's just me. Apparently, others seem to have an aversion to them.
