I had a brother-in-law like that for a while... He was raised on beef,
potatoes and veggies. My family finally managed to get him to try Chinese
food. He couldn't get enough of it that night and since then, he's been
more open to try other styles of foods.

Too bad he turned out to be a drunk and a wife-beater. I know my sister so
I can't imagine how he managed to live after all the abuse he gave her...

I was on a tour to Taiwan and they served a fabulous dinner, all laid out on a
big Lazy Susan--there were ten people at the table-- my two friends and I and
the tour guide were from New York--the rest were Texans--the New Yorkers ate
every last piece of food--the Texans ate NONE!!
They said they preferred BARBECUE!!

A close friend of mine was born in China, but grew up in the US. He
makes periodic return trips to the village he was born in, staying in a
small house (a hut, really) that he and his brother still own.

He went there a year or two back, and one of the villagers offered to
cook his (the offeror's) dog for dinner. My friend thanked him for his
gracious offer, but declined.

Actually, I think he declined more because of the cost to the villager
than to a aversion to dog.

I lived in Houston, for 9 1/2 years, I think it is one of the best foodie
toowns in the US, after a stint in NM, I am now back in Texas, near San
Antonio, and wish they had as many great places to eat.

So why did he come if he wasn't going to eat? Talk about being a fifth
wheel.

I'll back you up on this. I work for a company with Texas in the name. I
know a LOT of people from Texas and they all eat a wide variety of foods.
Spend a lot of time in Chinese and Indian restaurants when I'm in Texas
(eat a lot of dead cow too though). 8^)

I'm so white it hurts. Married a Chinese woman. Now I eat pigs feet, cows
stomach, etc. I go to dim-sum with my friends. They think I'm weird. My
attitude... more for me. Yummy, yummy, I have tummy in my tummy.

Disagree with you on this, it's the same for people from cities. About 10
years ago I went for a guided tour around bits of NE United States + bits of
Canada, everybody in the group were from Hong Kong (quite a big city,
right?). The tour company cater for Hong Kong people especially and guess
what happened? We went to practically every China Town in between Toronto
and New York, so that we can have Chinese for almost every meal. If there
were a floating Chinese restaurant at Niagara Falls we would have eaten in
it. And throughout that 10 days, people were moaning about not being able
to find a bowl of decent wanton noodles. Why go half way round the world to
get something you can get much cheaper and better at home?
