Thais and Food

Thai people love food. In fact, the national greeting is not "how are you?" or "how it's going?". They say "have you eaten yet?". In other word we can say that when Thais are not talking about food they're thinking about food.  

oh it's really?,,,,,,like me :-) hehehe.....

Thai food is, of course, chic and fashionable worldwide, renowned for combining essential and perfectly opposing flavours and textures. Thai people have big appetites. They are fearless fryers and always like to explore new foods. In Thailand there are many strange foods and Thai people like to eat every kind of it.

wow,,,,,,,two thumbs for them 

In Thailand the four main food groups consist not of meats, fruits, and vegetables, grains and dairy products but mammals, reptiles, insects, and fish. Classic Thai dishes include insects, fried worms and caterpillars. Cockroaches are also pupular. 

oh no....... no comment for that,,,make me feel stomachache

 

Thai people also believe that if something tastes like fish it's delicious. for instance, fish mixed with ice cream is popular treat. curry sauce is commonly us to disguise reptiles such as snakes or frogs.

for us who don't like weird food,,,,,,don't try this at home ! ;-)
