Beijing Food Market

While with Joanna and Becky in Beijing, we sort of accidentally stumbled onto this crazy food market near Tiananmen. Don't get it in your head that this is normal Chinese food . . . even the Chinese people think this is a little crazy . . .

All kinds of crazy things on sticks.
Not really sure what these were but they were scary looking. Oh and those are silk worm larvae on the right.
Yes . . . bugs, scorpions, and various other creepy, crawly creatures that should never be even considered edible.
Me trying fried starfish which turned out to be gritty and gross.
Joanna agreed with me that the starfish was disgusting (despite the vendors assuring us it was delicious and healthy).Becky trying snake. We also two types of sea mushrooms.
