River Snails




Here is a tip:




Don’t eat the river snails from the food stalls on the sidewalk in Shanghai. Apparently river snails in China tend to make people crazy in the brain due to some kind of worm or virus.

Another tip:

When you make a beer run from the sidewalk food place at night, take the corporate controller with you. Otherwise, when you come back, you might find that he is chowing down on river snails with his new friends who he can’t understand.

Finally:

If you do make the mistake of leaving your corporate controller unattended and in fact you do find out that he has been dining on nasty river snails, DO NOT freak out and start telling him that he needs to stop eating those things immediately. That will only add to his stress for the next 6 weeks while he waits for the symptoms of river snail insanity to appear.

Sweet.

Stick to the more desirable items like fish heads. Or whatever that stuff is in the middle.
