Smells good, looks…
This has to be one for the weird food category.
Just getting back from Uni, I walked into my flat to be greeted by a delicious smell coming from a covered pot simmering away in the kitchen. Such a situation isn’t rare now that there are two Chinese girls in the flat, who cook from scratch nearly every day.
But intrigued by what smelt so good, I decided to take a peek into the pot.
There were about 20 ducks feet being boiled up with a mix of spices.
Apparently it’ll make a nice soup after 24 hours of simmering, and the feet won’t be recognisable.

I have occasionally seen chicken's feet for sale in our grocery stores. I always wondered what was done with them. Did you taste the soup?
Alas no. I was told it ended up quite oily and a bit like a jelly though.
