It's one of those bullshit chinese """"delicacies"""" which are made from extremely rare and/or hard to procure animals or plants and have supposedly medicinal properties like curing cancer or making your cock always erect. Same bullshit as ground elephant ivory, shark fin soup, those fungi which grow on moth caterpillars in the himalayas, snake hearts, chimpanzee spleens, the scrotums of infants and whatever else old superstitious chinks think eating will make them live forever instead of making them into a vector for yet another global pandemic.It's a rich ass asian delicacy
Granted I haven't tried it my whole life even though there are nests here in the country
A reminder that a chinese emperor killed himself by consuming mercury because he thought it was the secret to immortality and these motherfuckers are still driving the extinction of rare species 2000 years later. FUCK CHINKS.
