Cow stomach in chilli sauce with cucumbers.
It tastes well at first, but after chewing away for a while, you notice that mostly its due to the sauce. I’ve eaten this many times now, but I’ve begun avoiding it after a very rubbery mouthful that balled up in my mouth and just wouldn’t go down. The taste changes too when you’ve munched away on it for too long, and its not for the better. Most Chinese seem to love it though.
This might interest you, if you’re married to a Chinese.
Never heard that term before, but it I’m not entirely unfamiliar with the mild form of Sajiao. Thank god I’m the lazy stubborn and sarcastic type.

Yesterday I brought an iRobot vacuum cleaner home. I told C about it some days in advance, and she didn’t object. We have enough to do without vacuuming all the time, and with 2 rug rats around, the floor needs a lot of cleaning these days.
This morning we started it for the first time and watched the lill sucker move about in its odd patterns. It doesn’t clean logically like a human would, but it still does an acceptable job and eventually gets around before the cycle is over.
I told C: “It may not replace normal vacuum cleaning, but it does take at least 80-90%. So it is a huge help and in the end it’s better than I’d have thought”.
She glanced at it hum around on the floor and replied: “It’s more thorough than you”.
