China is not really my choice location to visit, but there is one thing that makes me keep on coming back to this big country -- its food. The last time I went to a bar in China, I was able to overheard a tete-a-tete of some English-speaking tourists like me. I overheard from the trippers that the first domesticated animal is the pig. It was really an absorbing tete-a-tete because I realized that Christopher Columbus and Hernando de Soto were responsible in making pork popular in America.
However, I kind of felt spooked when I overheard that in China, pigs were buried with their breeders, which shows that pork was highly-esteemed in the country during the ancient times. That detail was quite creepy for me, but I must say that China has the most mouthwatering pork meals in the world. The tete-a-tete of the tourists about the pigs and pork ended as I munch my mouthwatering Mu Shu pork. I was about to order a serving of the bar's sweet and sour pork when my cousin urged me to take pictures of the Great Wall of China, which I have seen hundreds of times. I guess even though I have been to the Sleeping Giant many times, I will still go back to this country because my taste buds always itch for the tempting Chinese pork munchies.
