So Sherris will be accompanying me
whilst I try and eat local foods I've never had before
It's starting now...
Beef offal, pigs colon and
Three stuffed treasures
So nasty
It looks nasty
We're at a random football field
oh dear god
We're gonna start with the easiest one
This is tofu right?
That's been fried.
Dipped in oil!
and soy sauce
This is 'hong cheung'?
Some sort of meat (pork).
This is, oh my god, this is
intestines
So apparently what people say is that there is poop inside
Eggplant
Sherris, you're happy. Doing this live for you.
I'll go with the tofu first
Tofu is totally normal
Sherris: Eggplant?
Sherris: This girl doesn't have much poise
Asha: Yeah, not much.
I don't really like eggplant though
Unless it's in 'yu heung kea zhi' rice
Sherris: Okay, now you can try another
Sherris: *evil laugh*
I think this is gross-er than this though
Sherris: It's not gross. Just eat it. (BTS: sherris doesn't eat/like any of this stuff either)
Asha: Yeah right.
Sherris: See if it smells good
My stomach turned a little bit
It's like orange and ish but then you can still little 'black dots'
Sherris: Maybe it's burnt?
Asha: I don't think so
Oh my lord
It's quite hard in texture.
Let me open it first
I need to eat the whole thing in?
Sherris: Yes.
I've gone 24 years without touching this.
Sherris: What does is taste like?
It's really chewy
Sherris: And the flavour?
Fried? Like I can't swallow it (kind of nasty flavour)
I got this outfit just for this.
I thought it was appropriate
*sighs*
Aw, if you could smell it.
No!
Can we all just take a moment to look at the 'juice'
Sherris: That's just meat over there, you can eat the meat first
Sherris: Focus! Focus!
Oh that's just like really soft beef
Sherris: I want to see you eat that piece more
I'm still chewing on the previous piece...
There's just so much going on with it
There's veins and stuff inside right?
Sherris: I don't know, why don't you try it.
Sherris: It's meat!
Yeah yeah, it's soft beef again.
As long as you don't think too much.
Okay, what about this one.
Sherris: Yes! That's the right one.
What the fuck is this?
Sherris: There really is! I want to look at them
This is one side.
Oh holy shit, I see it now.
Sherris: What do you see?
Those little holes
Did you see these earlier?
Sherris: Thats what I was talking about!
Ew
I didn't see that...
They look like eyes.
Sherris: Good. EAT!
I don't dare chew any more
I can keep it down, I can keep it down. Wait wait wait, I can keep this down!
I'm about to cry... wait
I'm chewing it but it's not going down.
Sherris: You ate it! Well done!!
Sherris, do you want to try some?
Sherris: No, I'm good thank you.
This didn't have a flavour. It was just meat.
But then this... this had a lot of juice.
So just after three bites, your mouth is full of flavour.
Sherris: So does that mean it tasted really good?
No
Noooo
I couldn't even eat this one
It was just really stringy and I just couldn't bite through it
Yeah I'm never doing this again
I've been to Causeway Bay so many times and I didn't even know there was a place that sold snake soup
Sherris: Snake King
I'll also be having this (stinky tofu)
It tastes good right?
Sherris: Yes. It's awesome.
I'm sort of looking forward to that
So I have my snake in here and on the way we're going to get stinky tofu.
Never had that before but to me it's not as stinky as some people think it is
I'm local?
I can tolerate it. So we'll see how it tastes. She thinks it's good so...
Should have nothing to worry about
I'm not overly 'gwai lo'
We're waiting for the tofu so I ordered my favourite
I'm gonna hate England so much
Man: Thank you/Enjoy!
Sherris: You get 2 each!
It doesn't smell
It's just tofu!
Totally fine
Sherris: You don't think it smells?
Uh-uh.
Sherris has already prepared the soup for me.. Fu- English!
Look at that consistency - it's quite thick.
Ok I was not ready for that texture.
It just tastes like warm, melted jelly
Which ones are snake meat?
Look look look look look!!
There's like a little bit of its 'black stuff'?
Is that like bone or...?
Sherris: There! There, there!
It's chicken! Looks like chicken.... it better taste like chicken...
It is literally chicken.
Even the texture is chicken.
I CAN'T DO IT!!
Let's drink it together!
That after taste, (you said it was good) that was a lie!
Sherris: Good girl!
First, we're going to cut it open to see how runny the yolk is.
Sherris: It's super yummy.
Sherris: Does everyone else agree?
No no no nooo
Look at all of them enjoying my pain!
Sherris: This is how my mum cuts it
Viewer: I'd like to smell it
It smells so bad.
1...2...3
Haymund(viewer): She actually likes it.
Viewer: So is there the taste of poop?
That middle part/yolk is disgusting
Is it black?
Everyone: Yes
Sherris: Even the gaps between your teeth are black.
It's so nasty.
Haymund: Do we need to clap?
Ally (viewer): It's good.
It's the texture...
It's aiiright
Ally: You finish this one and I'll finish the other.
Ally: Be good.
Together: Hong Kong will always be my home.
Peace!
