Nice try ben, as I myself have never had this courage to give the rat jerky a shot despite I am a local, born and bred. Yep little wonder that we are blessed with this local speciality of "8 jerkies", as we human beings existing around the world (not merely referring to Chinese people) are notorious for eating anything flying in the sky except the air-plane, anything swimming under the sea except submarine, and above all, anything with 4 legs except the table.
