Fun with farangs

After the elephants and a visit to two more temples, my guide took me
to a local jungle market to explore. He and the vendors took great
delight in grossing out the vegetarian farang (farang being the Thai
descriptor for European-American foreigners). The market featured a
diversity of traditional Thai foods, from more common fruits and
vegetables to the more exotic: rats, frogs (both live and dead, just
their skins too), cockroaches, ant eggs, silk worm cocoons, buffalo
skin, and snakes. Yum!
