RATS - That's What's For Dinner

The Chinese enjoy dog meat in outer space and we know cats are sometimes on the menu, we have even seen evidence of human embryo soup.
So, it comes as no surprise that Chinese people love to dine on rat.

Rat meat is in high demand, in fact  a restaurant can easily prepare 4oo boneless rat tenderloins in one day.
According to the China Daily news, many restaurants now have to make reservations for rat-meals.
Rat meat can be a BBQ, braised in soy sauce, cooked in soup, roasted or even stewed.


"A rat equals three chickens in term of nutrition," or so they say.
In addition, some believe that rat meat can turn back the clock and symptoms of old age.
