dont eat what you see

Hey friendfolk,

so I was eating lunch after class with a few other exchange students yesterday. Fredrik from Sweden pointed at somebodys meal (a local Thai) and said "I want what she has". He figured he'd try something new, and since the servers speak minimal english, and the signs are all in Thai, at times it can be very difficult to order anything besides Padthai. So we sit down and he starts eating his soup with noodles and such. He eats this one kinda of darky brown red marshmellow looking thing and gets an odd look on his face. I start to laugh at him and he explains "it tastes weird, strange texture and very strange taste, like nothing I've had before". We are wondering what it could be cause they eat some strange things here...then one of our Thai classmates sits down with us and Fredrik asks him, "so what is this thing?".....and the Thai student laughs and says "Thats deep fried Pork Blood". EWWWWWWWWWW. hahahha so Fredrik was eating blood soup essentially. hahah How nasty is that. He wanted something new and he certainly got it!!

Cheerio
