Eh the only thing that would gross me out in China would be the bugs + monkey brains.

I think they'll most probably stick with animal organs.....pork liver and intestines anyone? We Chinese eat almost anything! ;)

Most likely Eric says this given the Eric/Jaime romance. The 'and one player wants to go to tribal council, even though he believes he will be voted out.' might be Aaron since that is episode where the tribe switch takes place.

My guess is they have to eat pig hearts (hence "love" in the title) or something.

My bet is that the person who wants to go to TC is one who has the HII. To knock off the second place vote getter.

I hope they don't do that barbaric Chinese delicacy that is all the rage. A live monkey is brought out, then his skull is bashed in. Spoons are handed out to everyone, and you are supposed to scoop out the brains and eat them sashimi style.

That would put the general viewing audience in an uproar and sink the show.

More likely guts and bugs.

What obstacles did you encounter filming in a communist country?
The difficult part was getting in. The only real concession we had to make was allowing them a representative on location who could make sure we weren't portraying China in anything but a positive light. We only had one issue that came up when we told them we were going to do what we called our gross food-eating challenge. On reflection we might have positioned it a little differently. They said wait a minute, what do you mean? We said, "we're going to eat foods like baby turtles and Balut." They're these little embryos they eat off the street like we would eat a pretzel in America.

Sucks if they don't go for Turtle Pudding or Fai Choi (Hair-liked plant)

That would be a shame, Annie.

I just hope the same sort of seasonings we eat will be available to the castaways as well.
For instance, a bit soy and sesame oil is essential for foods like heart, tongue, lungs or ears.

I remember plan or raw items offered in other seasons. Does anyone remember seasoned gross food being offered? Well, there's Poi...

James finds the HII. James is then the one who wants to go to TC, since he can royally fuck the ZH member of his choice.

Kiss me, I'm Adminish

Copying this post from jaborwok

In the latest issue of TV Guide Mag (Oct22-28), there is a blurb section called Moment of the Week that says, "Survivor's Hidden Immunity Idol Found!" Thursday, 10/25,8/7c, CBS.

"Is wily Todd the castaway who finds the Immunity Idol this week? Once it's discovered, the secret isn't safe for long. Plus, the Survivors indulge in "Chinese delicacies" (Yum, chicken heart!)."

There is a picture (sorry can't copy it to show you) that shows Todd with his arms extended over his head grasping the cross beam that has the Chinese carved character in the center of the beam (which we have been shown time after time when the HII is discussed, and ergo must be the HII) looking directly at the carved wooden thingy (HII?).

Another blurb on the Thursday Highlights page (67) says, "Tonight's reward is the 'ultimate' bathroom experience, which we're guessing means indoor plumbing and two-ply toilet paper--ooh la la!"

Take it for what it is worth!

What even sucks is we have made a huge list of Chinese gross food in Survivor 15+ board.
All they have to do is to read that list and pick something from there.
I will be pissed if they really go for that food.

For embryos, I really hope they don't go for human embryos.

Just found something about chicken egg embryos:
http://www.weirdmeat.com/2006/03/nanjing-chicken-embryo-duck-blood-bull.html
Basically, it is balut 2.0, except it is from Chicken, not duck
(It is highly possible, since the producers did use as balut past season example. )

From wikipedia (Chinese http://zh.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E6%97%BA%E9%B8%A1%E8%9B%8B&variant=zh-tw)
旺雞蛋
旺雞蛋，又名雞仔蛋、毛雞蛋、活珠子，是一種小吃。傳統上指將孵化失敗的雞蛋清水煮熟，一般剝殼蘸炒熟的精鹽食用。近年來，因為衛生原因，已逐漸改用正常孵化15天左右的健康雞蛋作為原料。

"These little embryos they eat off the street" makes me think of "hot enough to fry eggs on the sidewalk".

Is there some uniquely Chinese bathroom experience? I know toilet paper would be nice after being without it for a couple of weeks, but would that be "ultimate"? Hopefully it's more like a spa or something...
