Have you ever been to open meat markets in China? Hmmm, probably not. Let me show you what it looks like in one small city of Humen, which is located in Dongguan. These markets are usually open from early morning and are very crowded. Here, everyone can find whatever they want, and everything is very fresh—well, that's how it seemed and looked to me. Here the butchers will cut your meat the way you need it and how you like it, and you can always bargain.

Enjoy watching, and if you are very impressionable, then don't.

yep. feet. It's good luck to get the chicken foot at the banquet - the foot "grasps good fortune" for you - don't know if duck feet are the same!

And see the amount of work already done here- the birds had to be collected- killed correctly, de-feathered which probably involved both a machine and hand labor- gutted, washed- examined for bruises...... a LOT of human labor, just to get here.
