Gmarket Haul #6

I ordered from Gmarket Global again.

Let's start with the fun part first! Quite a small haul this time for me, as most items are my sister's.

Huge Box! But loosely packed.

Just a random thought.

Just a random thought.

Some people find it gross when some cultures eat weird parts of an animal like say, pig's skin, or innards or idontknow fish lips. Have you thought that this is not because people have some pervertic (lol, new word) thoughts of enjoying these weird parts, but because in the past... long ago.. people were poor and would eat any part of the animal so as not to waste food? Maybe meat was a luxury.. why waste any part of the animal? And then these food were passed down through generations and people grow up eating such things and so it is not gross to them. Well, a good thing is that nowadays, people are more hygienic and parts such as innards are cleaned properly. 

I don't eat stuff like pig's innards. But because I grew up seeing people eat it, I don't think it is gross when people eat it... I only find it really gross if it is not prepared well and looks... gross? I'm fine with people eating exotic food. Maybe what is normal to us, is gross to them too. I don't understand why people eat horse meat or dog meat. That's just... No. But then again.. whoever decided that eating chicken/pork/beef is normal but eating other animals is cruel? Just because dogs and horses are smarter and we humans like to treat them as our friends, they are not commonly bred as food for us. Poor chickens and cows. If only you were cuter and recognize us humans. 

One thing i really dislike though, is when the animal is cooked live.. that is just cruel ): How will it taste any better if it is cooked live? ):
