The saying goes that the 'Chinese will eat anything with 4 legs, except the table'. I could get behind that philosophy. If it tastes good and isn't toxic/poisonous, why not.
However, every single person I know who has been to China always comes back saying the food is disgusting there, not because the ingredients are exotic, but because they are low quality, not fresh, or otherwise distasteful. It's like a fat camp for some of my business traveler friends who've gone there for a month or two. They come home 10-15lbs lighter.
