Q: What's the one thing you've vowed never to do/try/eat/etc. in China?
Nver eat a dog........Neaver drink baijiu and never call a chinese dude "dude"............broke my promise and had baijiu and called a chinese dude "dude".......didn't eat dogs yet and i want to keep it that way
I vowed never to say never! 
Createach:
Never say never...........I guess you are a fan of Justin Bieber............LOL.....just playing
Xpat.John:
Ouch. That shows my age. CT sees "never say never" and thinks Bieber. I see it and think Sean Connery.
Hugh.G.Rection:
Nope, I'm older than the both of you, 'never say never' is a quote from WAY before even James Bond.
I've never heard Justin Bieber and as an old rock fan, from what I've been told I have no intention of changing that.
Createach:
i said bieber not bond..different guys.one is a brat and one is my idol.....getting laid at least three time in a 2 hours movie..........James Bond..................Rock!!!!
Never is not a word I use often. Life is meant to be experienced so why limit with preconceived notions?
However, I did swear that I would never get a sex change operation. But I promise that in every country I visit. Except Thailand. And we don't talk about Thailand.
So, in summary, "never" bad. "Never again", acceptable.
Xpat.John:
I think Vegas stole that saying from Thailand. I am very glad I never found a real job in that country. I would be a (albeit happy) dried up husk mumbling to myself in some corner of a forgotten bar.
Xpat.John:
Thailand, apart from the sleaze factor, is one of my favorite countries. It is clean, the people are really friendly, the food is amazing, beautiful sites and it has a very rich culture. I really love that place.
Createach:
you forgot the transsexuals.....yeah shemales....add them to the list and people will be running away from bangkok.....went there once met some nice shemales and i swore that am never going there again...i feel creepy around nice people.............LOL
Dog and chicken feet. got stuck having to eat chicken feet once and i'll never do it again. I really enjoy silk worms. I've also had Cow penis and lamb penis.
mArtiAn:
I got a pig's penis stuck in the back of my throat once. Now there's a sentence I never imagined myself saying.
Createach:
shit..am not eating anything in my life after hearing all this penis talk
The monkey brain thing... that is seriously demented
Use the squattie pottie for anything other than a number 1 or a vomit job. Two years and counting...hasn't happened yet 
stan118:
well in that case you should avoid going to small towns or villages, will happen sooner or later
cooter:
Hello. I live in a pretty small town (by China standards anyways). I'm pretty regular, and know where to go for some good ole fashioned sit-down action.
I sure hope I never eat snake. Other than that, bring it on!
The food thing doesn't really bother me to much
I will eat anything eatable once (even sober)
the things that I stay clear of with the exception of crossing a road
is things that will cause pain like bungee jumping or
jumping out of a perfectly good airplane
Nope. No Chicken feet, never, ever!
I will not eat them in a box.
I will not eat them with a fox.
I will not eat them in a house.
I will not eat them with a mouse.
I would not like them here or there.
I would not like them anywhere.
I will not eat those chicken feet.
They're small and crunchy; without meat.
mArtiAn:
Ok, no chicken feet, we get it. How about a lovely plate of green eggs and ham? Or a muffin!?
giadrosich:
Muffins are okay. Green eggs and ham? Hmmmm...never heard of the stuff.
mArtiAn:
It's highly overrated. So about these chicken feet; would you eat them on a Black and Decker Gasoline Digital Inverter Generator Power Lawnmower?
giadrosich:
No...
I would not eat them wearing black,
or dressed up in a yellow mac.
Besides the feet, no chicken neck
shall e'er be served upon my deck.
No frying them in gasoline
or bouncing high, quite in-between
rotating blades that swish and cut,
and leather seats fit for my butt.
With LCD lights generating,
from CF's I'll be separating!
I would not give them to my Rover
nor eat them on a Power mower!
Createach:
The underground project....ladies and gentlemen....show me your hands for giadrosich
mArtiAn:
Really not gonna budge on this chicken feet thing, are ya?
Ok, well...
Would you eat them laced with smack?
Or how about whilst smoking crack?
Off a babe's arse, nice 'n' hot?
Protruding from her honey-pot?
I've only got a few left, dude,
I'm trying to shift them, don't be rude.
It's clear you folks din't raise no sucka,
Just eat the damn things, muthafucka!
Erm..........I mean......Sam I Am.
Ahem....
Createach:
Ok now............Ladies and gentlemen........Show me your hands for Martian
The only thing I demanded was never to be taken to a place that serves dog or cat. I would show the Chinese crazy if they ever fed me cat or dog. I think it is so morally wrong to eat creatures that developed to be our partners. Actually the thought that anything has to die so I can eat bothers me, but chickens are not very bright. I think we score very low on looking after the planet and other creatures, we have war, murder, violence. Humans aren't really evolved, just fucked up. So I won't eat cat or dog, people maybe, well the females anyway.
I will not eat the "drunk shrimp". In my area it is popular to place live shrimp in a bowl and cover them with baijiu. Once they have succumbed to alcohol poisoning and are barely wiggling they are eaten alive.
Createach:
That's cool mate....where you at?!!!......i might come and try that...who doesn't like a drunk shrimp...double effect.....getting drunk and eating at the same time some seafood..now that's the ultimate experience
Xpat.John:
Reminds me of "7 snake wine". 7 live snakes are put in a big jug of baiju and eventually drown in it. Then you are supposed to drink the baiju that has 7 dead animals in it. To be honest, it tasted just as awful as every other cup of baiju I have ever had.
Createach:
damn...i really want to try those things so bad......guys show me the address
goomba:
I am in Jiangsu Province near Zhenjiang. Most restaurants around here will serve this "delicacy".
