Grilled frogs on a stick
Here’s a tasty snack found in Laos and some parts of Northeast Thailand. Quarter-sized grilled frogs on a stick. Â These particular frogs were found on the riverside in Vientiane, where I might add that I also happened to find some of the best and cheapest grilled ribs I’ve ever had. Â Pleasant surroundings, too, just sitting along the Mekong River.
Many of you might be disgusted by this so-called snack, but it’s actually very tasty. Â Probably nutritious, too. Â The taste is somewhat salty, somewhat fishy, somewhat something else and the texture is crunchy and mushy at the same time. Â Really a conundrum of tastes since it’s something I’m not used to.
