Culture and eating habits differ in various countries. A common snack in Taiwan, pig's blood cake, was recently chosen as the most unusual out of the 10 most unusual foods in the world. The rubbery pig's blood cake is extremely delicious when peanut powder, soy sauce, and cilantro are added, but in foreign eyes this looks like we are eating pig's blood popsicles, and is considered extremely strange.
Actually, foreigners lose their appetite immediately as soon as they hear this food is made of pig's blood, especially since it has a wooden toothpick inserted in it and looks like a popsicle. Pig's blood is especially terrifying in the eyes of people from the United Kingdom, who are afraid to try almost anything. Even Hugh Jackman, a Hollywood movie star, said that the most unforgettable thing about Taiwan was pig's blood cake when he visited a few years ago.
Apart from pig's blood cake, second place in the list of 10 of the world's most unusual foods is live octopus from South Korea. Third comes grasshoppers eaten in Uganda, fourth pigeons in French cuisine, and fifth durian from Malaysia. Ranked sixth to tenth are lutefisk from Norway, grubs from Australia, snake wine from Vietnam, donkey from Italy, and ostrich from South Africa, respectively.
Any way you look at it, pig's blood cake seems to be the most normal of the top ten, don't you think so?
