Something new to try!!!!!!!! Yum. Although dismissed as a hoax, there is evidence that this practice exists in China. Here is a link to the Seoul Times article. Enjoy this tasty(?) delicacy.
Making Fetus Soup:
Fetus, along with chopped shrooms and duck meat getting ready for prep.
Next.................Wash Fetus
Then, return to plate. Note....it's a girl. (Not as valuable as boys and with China's one child policy couples can make extra money selling their aborted fetuses)
The finished product: MMMMMMMMMMMM
Lunch Time!!! (Note leg and arm on plate)
The above photo is supposed to be of a Chinese alternative artist, taken during a 2001 exhibition, but it does not look like the artist. At any rate, enough testimony has come out of China to indicate that this practice exists, but most of the customers are older and ignorant of the fact that the stated benefits of eating fetus soup are actually not true.

Your not getting alot of support here.. You mayconsider deleting as a kind of damage control. You know... the correctness of it all.
lol.
Different strokes for different folks. In India they deal with famine by making some animals sacred, in China if it ain't nailed down it gets eaten. During one of the Chinese famines in the late 1800's/early 1900's some teenagers were killed for their meat.....it was available at several local butcher shops.
Carry on.

Ablonde, I saw the Snopes stuff and the other internet items describing it as a hoax, however, it is not. At least some of the photos are authentic and the practice has been well documented, but the Chinese are not happy that they are viewed as cannibals. The Seoul Times article quotes folks who have eaten this soup.
Also, I was in China back in '87 and while I did not see anyone eating fetuses, they damn sure ate everything else, so it's really not a stretch.
ewwwwwww indeed Amanda. I've eaten my share of odd food, but won't be having fetus..........or placenta for that matter.
Those baby who is close to be born and die naturally costs 2000 in China currency. Those aborted ones cost a few hundreds in China currency.
Those couples who did not want to sell dead babies, placentas can be accepted also for couple of hundreds.
One local reporter was quoted as saying that this is the problem arising from Chinese taking too much attention in health or is the backfire effect when China introduced one child in a family policy.
This heinous crimes rise from the fact that majority of Chinese people prefer to have male babies and the poor families end up selling their female babies.
Dead babied can be purchased in Taiwan for 70 US dollars for being used as grilled delicacies.
Apparently, I still can't type, even with a newer keyboard.
If people are deliberately eating and seeking out human fetuses, that's disgusting.
Asians need to get over this virility thing, especially now that there are drugs that actually work, like Viagra. One of the big reasons tigers have been hunted to extinction is so that their penises could be ground up and consumed to give old guys hardons. Now there's a little blue pill. Leave the tigers and the dead fetuses alone.
I wasn't thrilled to learn that I'd eaten monkey meat, after the fact, and that's about as close as I'd ever want to come to cannibalism unless it was a starvation issue, and the human was already dead. Then all bets are off.
I am pro life, but we must take the world as it is and not how we want it, at least for now, so, abortions will continue, but at a minimum, I would expect to see humane treatment of the aborted fetuses. A civilized society respects it's dead and treats the remains accordingly. I do not feel that eating them is respecting them. (although you could make it a platter by adding fries and a Coke for an additional $1.99)
no real video of the restaurant and all the pictures all the same in all sites it's all lies stupid assholes
When you have 1.3 billion people to feed, you tend not to get too particular about what you are eating---especially considering the quantity of female fetuses available.
