Not so easy, you say? Welcome to the real world.

I'm literally loling at this. I fully understand the whole I'm ethnically Chinese, but growing up White dilemma. It was just reinforced when I went back to China and realized how different I was from everyone else.
But, seriously though, grow the fvck up. I can't believe you're complaining about having to eat meat.
The Germans use pigs feet and knuckles in Jellied Pigs Feet Head Cheese (Gullarie) and Schweinshaxe
The French use cow stomachs (tripe) and calf's feet in Tripes a la mode de Caen
In the south, right here in the good US of A, black culture has developed:
Chitlins (Intestines)
Hog Maws (ankles)
Pig in the Poke (deep friend ears)
An animal is an animal and meat is meat. Welcome to the real world and the global culture. Grow up and realize that not every single person is going to have thoughts and opinions congruent with you. The purpose of society and civilization is to promote tolerance and teamwork with those that are "different" or "strange" to you, otherwise you just end up as another racist d-bag.

Eating offal is one thing but the superstition is 'nutha. It is reprehensible that ignorance is contributing to extinction of animals because hordes of imbeciles think that since bears are strong, eating their gall bladder or gobbling their cock is somehow going ot make up for personal inadequacies or whateverthefuck nonsense. DIAP
might be a little high in cholesterol or something, but I know organs are loaded with vitamins and good stuff, heck, I'm a Caucasian American guy from Upstate NY and I'd at least try anything once; heck I had some kind of stomach lining tripe stuff at a Mexican restaurant (Menudo) and it was okay............ I just figure it this way, the OPs taste buds have gotten Americanized, used to the crap we eat here.......... Heck, I love eating liver......... beef, calf, chicken, turkey; most American people hate it........ I love Brussels sprouts...... I will eat gizzards, hearts, and things like that........ My taste buds are just more adventurous than the average persons, I guess, I think too many people let the media and other people influence their own tastes too much...........
They don't make much pig brain dishes as before now because of high cholesterol, and no cow brain because of mad cow ...
And the stuff they put in those soups aren't cheap either, they're good stuff.
Man I want some pig brain soup. Good stuff. Wish I learned how to make them from my mom and grandma when I had the chance

Why eat properly prepared and nutritious food when you can just eat quick and processed garbage? That's what most of the younger generation seems to think, and as we can see, it's working out real well. My wife's family eats all of this "stuff", and they're all fit and healthy, with two exceptions: Myself (I've only been here for two years, working on it still), and an uncle who eats unhealthy because he works two jobs and now has ulcers and is overweight.
If the vast majority of Chinese people were unhealthy and dying young because of this stuff they eat, I'd agree it's wrong. Fact is the exact opposite is going on though, so obviously there's something to it.

dang. just listen to your parents, but afterwards drive down here and i'll buy you some Checkers
Quit your effing whining. You're 15 which means you probably don't know shit about culture. And I'm saying that fully aware of the fact that I'm not knowledgeable about culture either.
But at least I don't dog on my own or other people's cultures. Grow up.

Yeah..

Thats why your alive and well today??? hmmmmmm
Tough luck. Eat or starve.
Or you could get a job and buy your own food but I think you'd rather bitch and whine.

Eating whatever animal part is suppose to be good for your equivalent human part.
That's why people all want tiger and bear dicks.
What's wrong with pork meat bone? I've been told by a friend (from his grandma) that the soup soaks up the calcium.
edit: Come to think of it, I would say that it's the way to get every last nutrients from uneatable parts(bones). Hey man, back then Asia was poor

Americans tend to be pretty conservative about what they'll eat because we've never experienced a famine before. Throw an 1800s-style potato famine or something similar at us and we'll be integrating brains and intestines into "American style" food like you read about.

as opposed to american fast food?
Grade F meat? Crap that no one wants to eat if they knew where it came from. Yet people still buy them at fast food restaurants.
Whats the stuff inside the pork bones you have to suck out or pry out with a chop stick? Its delicious.

I was just talking to my southern relatives over Christmas and they were telling me how they had squirrel meat, frog legs, possum, raccoon, etc. at some point in their lives. When times were tough during the depression or when their jobs were striking, they had to feed themselves somehow and other than a perceived social stigma, the food was pretty good. I don't see why you should complain.
Waaaa....mama and papa make me eat soup from the brains and bones of people instead of making delicious manburgers...waaaa!!!!
lol, kid you have much to learn. If you think what you are eating is unhealthy and unfair check out american fast food, or any of the snacks that have man-made chemicals in them
the innards are often the most nutritious, we prefer the red/muscle meat, which is mostly protein and iron, because its tastier and can get the other vitamins from veg. Ever watch Discovery? Animals nearly always go for the organs first. OK partly because they go off fastest, but when there's a pack and the kill is going to be consumed that day you watch top dog going in first and straight for the organs.
Buy a turkey from a butcher and he'll give you the neck and the organs in a little bag. Makes superb gravy. Stock comes from boiling the bones, this is the base for any decent non-vegetarian soup. Lots of sauces start off this way.
here's the scottish national dish: "sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately three hours." And a good haggis is DAMN nice, anyone here who considers themselves scottish or of scottish ancestry should be having one on Friday week after next (25th Jan) - Burns night. FWIW there are some vegetarian haggis which are actually very good too, bit like meat haggis it's very hit-and-miss.
Mnay national dishes, or at least a nation's famous foods, came about from making otherwise unappetising (or even outright gross) food appealing.
Not sure i'd recommend brains though, extremely high in cholesterol.
Anyway, like Tiamat says, if you think traditional food is bad try googling the ingredients of modern convenience food.
