I had the fish market in Thailand in Na Thon, the port city on the island of Koh Samui. I've had my share of the smell was in the Asian markets in the United States, so that (or smell, MA) dried fish was not known, but I never had any life experience something that is so overwhelming, like the fish market on Koh Samui in mine. And the fact that they are all in it was just that much worse. It only describe it, it would be rotting corpse, comes to mind, toShow was more or less what the market was full. Asians tend to dry out a lot of fish, the same principles used in the production of meat jerky. The fish stinks a lot during this process, but then kept for a long time and even when convenient.
In the West we are happy to milk (it comes with cheese) and save them to eat later and rot. Just as Westerners might (or not if you're a spinner) will find disgusting dried fish at first, in which many Asian absolutely cheesesoutrageous.
I had the opportunity to learn first-hand. On the way back to my bungalow, I spent a large sign announces imported cheese to sell. I could not think up next! The activity was managed by a French ex-pat, and he was actually the real stuff: Gruyere, Brie, Emmental, Marolles, etc. I bought a modest cube of various kinds, and led them to share with my local host family bungalow .
First saw the cheese and smiled and seemed receptive. I left several pieces andif the smell of the curious eyes for the last alarm. Half of them would not even try, but those who have a clear vision was alarmed by the revolt and disgust, and ran off to spit it out. I do not think anyone actually swallowed it. I myself was surprised at the time. It 's just the cheese, after all.
