Paul, Peggy really enjoys giving me foods that I do not know what they are then watching my reaction.
I'll react just to make them happy.
This began the first full day I was there.
I'll try just about anything but I;ll throw a fit when I find out. I agree with your observation but will add one more. I will ask them what it is and if they say that they do not know the English word for it then they all sit there and watch get ready you are about to eat donkey, dog, cat, rodent, pigeon, worms, etc...
I can't wait to get Peggy here and have her try cow tongue, tripe, pickled pigs feet, ox tail, of course this may be nothing to her.
