No I haven't, one thing is that Chinese people are very finicky when it comes to food, if it doesn't look right they won't eat it. People here always check the restaurants and street vendors before they purchase. Maybe this gutter oil is used where migrants work or something, as they don't have a lot of money to buy food!

yes people here are very finicky about their food that's why they cook and serve rotten meat and fish from polluted waters,

i agree rich the gutter oil is perfect for restaurants because customers cant examine the oil before hand.

As rich said, you wouldn't know even if you had. I just try not to think of all possibilities when I eat and just concentrate on the taste, but if you are the type of person who thinks about what may happen then you probably should stick to imported caned food.

Just try to think that the high heat from cooking kills all the germs and breaks up dangerous chemical compounds. Right? Right??????

Just think of it as the secret ingredient that makes the place's food so special. If you think anymore about it, then you'll have to resort back to the "everything is going to kill you here, so you might as well enjoy" mentality.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
