On the first night in SuZhou, we had Chinese Dinner, Family style. This means, you all sit around a table with a giant lazy susan. Everyone just uses their chopsticks to pick food off of the multiple plates. I took a little something of everything and decided not to ask what any of it was. The next day at lunch, some of the same foods came up, so I then asked, "hey, what is that" to the one of dishes I ate the night before... It was jellyfish. Jelly fish is not good... Other foods I have eaten...Bull Frog organs (not sure which organs), eel's skin, pork's skin (which is actually pretty good), and duck's tongue. Duck's tongue is pretty interesting, it taste's exactly like you would imagine a tongue would taste like. The texture is the worse part. And it kind of squirts when you bite down on it. Things I have not had the guts to eat yet include chicken's feet and duck's feet. These are all normal dishes. They are served with almost every family style meal I have eaten.

There are people even eating chicken's or duck's heart, liver, neck... Not everybody enjoy them. I don't eat any of those, and I don't eat tongue or feet.
