I've wanted to try them ever since I saw them in Castlevania. I also just think they look cool.

>> No.17275161

Idk what happened but I used to like them as a kid and I don't like them now as an adult.
As for the taste, idk how to decribe it exactly because I don't remember what I liked about them back then but I'll say that as for how it tastes to me now, it's like an egg took an eggy fart, if that makes sense.

They store it in this weird slurry. Makes me think of lutefisk or something. Using weird acidic chemicals to treat a food so it lasts.

They taste like sulfuric jelly. So no, they don’t taste good. I’d assume like me, most people eat them for the novelt.

I have a friend who is very open to trying new foods and was excited to get to try this after a asian market opened up selling it. He ended up puking. Which just goes to show you, don't leave your comfort zone.

It served a purpose when food preservation was more important than it is now.

It's just a preservation technique, so it's point is to keep it edible. I've never heard anything about this way being specifically bad for you, but I don't know.

and another thread of whitey getting filtered by the most basic of ingredients. It's delicious, but I suppose it doesn't fit the sugar-addicted palates of degenerate anglos. Maybe stick to what you do best these days: worshiping niggers and nigger culture, while destroying your race in the progress.

Don't worry. We'll inherit the Earth pretty soon.

They're fucking grim, but you can come to enjoy the taste mixed in with a larger meal. Eating them in whole chunks like that is a ruse to prank tourists, like most local "delicacies".

I used to love these as a little kid eating it with thick soy sauce and fresh tofu. As for now, because I hate the taste of the egg, I can't really eat it as is anymore. However, when it's fried and stir-fried with "Chinese donuts", peanuts, chilis, garlic, and onions.

I can concur, they mostly taste like nothing, but the yolk is creamy, and they have a faint ammonia taste. They're really pretty shit that non-asian people only try once or twice for the novelty, but then meme about it on the internet.

>>17274567
By themselves, they're not great. They taste like a regular boiled egg, but with a cat piss afterodor. I wouldn't say aftertaste, because it's not exactly that, but after you bite into one, your nose gets full of ammonia and it sticks around for a while, really weird. However, they go great chopped up in congee. Idk why or how but when chopped up and mixed into rice gruel, they're delicious and have no cat piss effects.
