Wet Market

Woke up at 6am today as a few of us have arranged to meet up with our employer at 7am to go to the local wet market to look at some local products. The china’s wet market format is about the same as Cambodia’s, just that there are fewer houseflies buzzing around the China’s stalls that sell raw meats as the weather in the morning is simply too cold. We aroused the curious eyes of the local stall owners and some china wet market shoppers as we travelled in Big group with our employer. Some even start to join in our group when our employer stops by to introduce to us the local products. Okie, so what are some of their local products as you might start wondering now. Hahas.. basically they are Jew’s Ears aka黑木耳, honey, ginseng and鹿茸. Actually he was showing to some of us these local products and we are suppose to share it with the whole group and collate the number of people who want to buy back these products to SG, then he’ll kindly help us purchase at one go.

I was horrified when we pass by one stall that sells raw dog meats with its different parts. I’ll never ever think of eating it after seeing that scene, especially the dog head though I’m not really a fan of dog. It is just so cruel! Probably I’ve never seen raw dog meat but yes, don’t ever think of trying to ask me to eat dog meat anymore. My stand is very clear after seeing that scene. Poor doggie.
