    Default Food in China, I took these pics this past weekend in Beijing. Scorpions on a stick!

    Insane. The scorpions were still alive on the skewers and are fried to a crisp when you order.
    The people who who said they've eaten them, say they taste much like potato chips and have some supposed health benefit. While I was there, I didn't see anyone eat them which makes me question if its a real authentic thing or if even locals go there for the shock value. I got a vid, I'll try to upload it when I get a good connection.
