This from Reuters:
"The cat is out of the bag at a restaurant in northeast China that had been serving donkey meat spiked with tiger urine in pricey dishes advertised as endangered Siberian tigers."
" ...the so-called tiger meat was donkey meat that had been dressed with tiger urine to give the dish a 'special flavor.' "
Diners should have been tipped off by the menu listings:
- Endangered Siberian Tiger (not really) with udon(key)
- Moo shu Ass (w/ 4 barf bags)
- Peking Ass
- Crispy "Shrimp" in Tiger Urine
- Won ton don(key) soup
- General Tso's Ass in "Special Flavor" sauce
- Vodka mar-tinkle
