The Anonymous Widower

And We Think We Have Food Safety Problems!

This story from the BBC about rat meat in China, makes me think we’re lucky. I like this paragraph.

I heard one anecdote about a restaurant in southern China that serves up rat meat dishes. Believe me these establishments do exist.

At this particular restaurant, the owners reassured the customers their rats had been caught in the countryside and not in the sewers.

Incidentally, when I visited London’s sewers, I didn’t see one rat.
