strange foods of my life

When people look at the strange food, stop short of eating the foods because of their strange feature, smell, and origin sources. In Korea, there are some strange foods such as pork rinds, beef (pork) intestines, and chicken foot. Even though these foods look so strange, they have good nutrients and taste; so many Korea people prefer the foods. I like pork rinds and beef (pork) intestines, but I’ve never eaten chicken foot. I have experiences about pork rinds and chicken foot.

Pork rinds have a lot of collagen; therefore it is good for skin. However, I couldn’t eat pork rinds before I tried it last year because I thought why people eat pork without lean meat such strange food. One day, my friend recommended eating pork rinds to me. I rejected her recommendation, but she didn’t give up; so, I decided to eat only one piece of pork rinds. After I ate one piece of pork rinds, I couldn’t stop eating because it was so delicious. My though was change. It became one of my favorite foods.

Unlike pork rinds experience, I’ve never eaten chicken foot until now. Chicken foot is cooked with Korea traditional source which is spicy. Chicken foot has a lot of collagen and chondroitin, so the food is good for skin and articulation. Even if it is healthy food, I can’t eat chicken foot because a feature is creepy. When I was young, sometimes I visited my grand-grandmother’s house in country. At that time, grand-grandmother’s raised chickens on the yard, so I used to seriously observe the chickens. After I grow up, whenever I see the chicken foot food, I remember the foot of chickens which live my grand-grandmother’s house. I won’t eat chicken foot food during whole my life.

Strange foods make people are embarrassed. When people see strange foods first time, they almost hesitate to try it. Therefore some strange foods never receive people’s love. On the other hand, after people try eating strange foods, the strange foods can become the best food for people.

  4. I ate chicken feet one time, but I really didn't like them. I've never had pork rinds, so maybe I should try that too!
