WanFuJin...

...otherwise known as the street in Beijing with all the really disgusting/interesting food, depending on your point of view.  I paid this street a visit (thankfully after dinner, so I was not expected to buy too much!) this past weekend, and it was certainly entertaining to see all the stuff that can be edible.  And I actually did try some silk worm larvae (ok) and chicken hearts (fairly good) and a sugar-covered fruit on a stick called 'shan-zhe' which was actually quite fantastic.  Its amazing what our Western limitations keep us from appreciating on a regular basis ;)  (although they also perhaps protect from chronic diarrhea and nausea...)  I'll let the pictures speak for themselves...
