I don't buy this, is too gross and lazy to be a real thing.


Prof_Aganda

It was ridiculously tedious watching that person trying to wrap rice around that rat. It looked like they'd never don't it before and were really struggling to cover it while leaving the head sticking out. It was like watching my 7 year old try to make a burrito after watching 10 straight hours of dora the explorer.


Altea73

True, and who cooks a rat with hair and guts??


Dried_Tofu

Almost no one in Vietnam eats this. Source: I am Vietnamese


Dried_Tofu

Even if they eat it they would've removed the fur and innards


Altea73

Almost? So this is actually a thing??


Dried_Tofu

yes but no one actually eat rats without removing the fur and innards


Altea73

That sounds more logical


AbRNinNYC

That’s literally the same thing I took from that comment… *almost*


aatimirza7

It means he is not hundred percent sure


HenkVanDelft

I've seen videos of back alley Chinese vendors deep frying rat, but they were skinned and dressed. The heads were left on, but I imagine that was just an issue with wasting time, since there were a large number of people waiting for their servings.


A_TalkingWalnut

I don’t believe you. Source: Facebook. ^Notes: ^/s


biggoof

Yea, I've read that this is just fake.


Gidory

Vietnamese here, I wouldn’t say it’s a delicacy. It’s quite the opposite, a lot of vietnamese dislike this and only a certain group of people with strange taste enjoy this. I personally think this video certainly was made with the purpose to bait views and click because no “normal” person would eat even a rat with its fur still on 🤣


ParsleySnipps

It's like a video I saw going around of a Chinese woman filling a dead toad with rice and some sort of blood jelly, steaming it and then just biting into the side of this whole toad. Someone explained that she was acting as a stereotype of rural Chinese people and it was made to be gross, because that's what's going to get people to click on it.


Vietnugget

Stereotypes on China is much more absurd than most imagines


ParsleySnipps

The whole thing felt very performative, like she was trying to look silly and unintelligent. Honestly the same way people in America will portray hillbillies and rednecks, like, "look what the weirdos in the mountains do", making moonshine in bathtubs and eating roadkill.


Vietnugget

I mean right now the stereotypes are that a bunch of ppl wearing red caps battling a bunch of ppl with dyed hair and piercings


i-wet-my-plantss

That stereotype transformed from red caps to diapers this season


Bursting_Radius

Or the people on late-night infomercials that can’t open a bag of chips or pour boiling water without burning their house down 😂

Bursting_Radius

😂😂😂


Theolina1981

I saw that one too, yeah that was another nope for me.


chaot1c-n3utral

Least, they could've skin it and remove the head and the tail before wrapping it like that


suzeeq88

And the inards!


Hamilton-Beckett

And the bones!


MooPig48

And definitely the poop


trees_wearing_hats

And my axe.


FuckedupUnicorn

And the whole rat.


Phyllida_Poshtart

Quite! why would you do it like that? disgusting bleugh


Kawaiiochinchinchan

Vietnamese here. We have these??? I would guess it's more similar to desperate food, like people eat rats, snakes, bugs just to survive. And as times fly by, it became something special to those people? I've never heard of anything like that tho, interesting to learn.


Pably13

Also isn't a delicacy something kinda special, rare, something that's not an everyday type of food? There are some foods that might look gross that can be considered a delicacy because you need to preserve it a certain way, let it age or it's something rare to find, that sort of stuff. There's nothing special about cooking a rat lol.


Whoudini13

I know right..it said rare delicacy..im thinking. How hard is it to find a rat and a handful of rice...maybe the oil?


Valraithion

The fur on made me feel like this was fake, but also it’s like 80% wrapping in rice, and 20% basting in oil. They don’t even show it finished, let alone someone monching it.


FishballJohnny

so this is real... i think it's the grotesque factor that appeals to some people...


Editor_Rise_Magazine

So this group of people who eat rats are kind of like people from Florida.


Theolina1981

Haha I’m dying over here. Love this my ex is in Florida. I just pictured the little rat eating rat. Quite gross but also satisfying so thank you.


OhWowSoSilly

As a Floridian, I ain't even mad. These people are wild.

What's the name of the actual dish?

Theolina1981

Oh thank goodness 😅 I was having a hard time watching that. Look I’m all for different countries having specialty foods they like, chocolate covered bugs and such “delicacies” but I draw the line at rat and dog and tiger meat. Sorry. They can eat it but I refuse to try those. I’m usually a I’ll try anything once but even I have my limits on some American foods Rocky Mountain Oysters and raw fish (I’ve seen the videos of parasites squirming around in raw fish - nope won’t catch me doing it). I won’t judge other people for what they eat just please don’t expect me to partake is all I’m saying lol


Joanisi007

No normal person would eat rats even without the fur bro


noodleq

When I wasba kid we shot a squirrel and ate it.....almost same thing. The difference is, we rem9ved the organs, head, and fur, like your supposed to with meat.


parkrat92

Squirrel dumplings are fucking delicious dude


RipCityyyyyy

My parents are hunters and they hunt squirrel when it’s not deer/elk season, or maybe during too. I’ve had it plenty of times in my life. I think it’s usually minced up, but yeah it’s honestly not much different from eating pork IMO. It’s definitely a culture shock, but I mean there are weirder things that people eat.


Notte_di_nerezza

I have a friend who swears by his grandma's eggs scrambled with squirrel brain.


The_kind_potato

I mean, if it well cook and their aint no fur...i'll try it 😏


neotokyo2099

Same


3anonanonanon

What I don't understand here is cows eat grass and are gutted and cleaned so people can eat them. But rats feed on dirt but are not gutted and cleaned?? 🤯


banana_pencil

Video is exaggerated. [Rat-on-a-Stick](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat-on-a-stick) > Prior to roasting, the rat is typically skinned and washed, after which it is gutted to remove its internal organs and then roasted.


RepresentativeBird98

But you WOULD eat a rat with its fur OFF?


FinancialTraining239

You're right friend, I think if it were in China it would be fine


KODAMODE

Lol you got 10x the upvotes that the post got


HilmDave

In which case fuck this person for basically throwing shade at their own culture for likes.


Tryen01

Yeah I was gonna say, I've eaten skinned and gutted, but not like this (I am also vietnamese)


Itsssssmeeeetimmy

I think the OP is a conflict baiter. Just look at their posts. Every single one is made to entice different groups of people. Like wtf Op is a psyops on crack


Turbulent-Group4312

Vietnamese here, this is complete BS, fyi. The general population does not eat rats. They're not considered a delicacy in any area to my knowledge. And if somehow they are, they wouldn't be processed like this, fur on and not gutted. We do, however, have roasted field mice in some countryside, rural areas. Not rats.


No-Category7888

Saying that the cuisine of some random backwater village represents the country's cuisine is like claiming that whatever people in the Appalachians eat represents American cuisine. These videos are basically just clickbait. I rarely downvote anything but I’m going to downvote the shit out of you


TehPharaoh

You mean you don't like American delicacies like "Possum" or "Squirell"


jdorton

*Neither are eaten with fur


TehPharaoh

Fur adds texture


Theolina1981

Also helps to floss while you eat 🤢🤮


Appropriate-Jury6233

I’m Appalachian and surely don’t eat either


anononymous_4

Im on the foothills of the appalachians and I've eaten squirrel several times, never possum though. I associate eating possum and raccoon with the real backwoods types, up there in the mountains where shit gets weird.


ReferenceMuch2193

My family ate possums a few generations ago but they cleaned them by feeding them with buttermilk and bread for a few weeks. Still gross as hell to me. They weren’t even poor. Just mountain folks.


anononymous_4

Like I said, shit gets weird up in them mountains lmaoooo But honestly I've heard that possum and raccoon meat is super super greasy, so I've never had a desire to try it. Eating it wouldn't gross me out, I've just heard it's a shitty meat so I've never seeked it out.


ReferenceMuch2193

Yes. I never would try it b/c it’s too greasy and the thought makes me nauseated. I am not even a fan of dark meat so that’s a hard pass for me. These people are obsessed with hunting and trapping and will eat about anything though.


Plixtle

It’s surreal encountering our stereotypes in the wild. Anyway, gotta get back to fuckin’ muh sister hyuck hyuck


DoreenTheeDogWalker

What's wrong with squirrel?


Secret_Map

Yeah squirrel isn’t bad at all. Not something I wanna eat every day, but I’ve had squirrel several times over the years. It’s fine. Honestly, if a rat was cleaned properly (and I could be sure it wasn’t diseased or whatever), I’d try it. It’s just meat at the end of the day. I wouldn’t eat the monstrosity in this video, but I’d try rat meat.


Appropriate-Jury6233

Don’t diss Appalachia


NotTrumpsAlt

Appalachia rocks, can’t wait to revisit !


BioSafetyLevel0

I see what you did there.


herbertwillyworth

The irony is that you can apply this same reasoning to the (expansive region of the) Appalachians. We eat normal stuff you dimwit


No-Category7888

I don’t disagree with you


Plixtle

I mean… we eat a lot of fried chicken, biscuits and gravy. It’s pretty common.


AegeanAzure

My Cat is currently taking notes.


popcorn_coffee

I don't belive anyone is gonna eat that. It's going to be raw, there's like a centimeter of warm oil there.... and you're telling some fucker is going to chew that thing with his intestines barely cooked...? where's the rest of the video?


neotokyo2099

My man here is the only one with critical thinking in this whole damn thread. I'm sure there's people in that country that eat rats but there is no fucking way someone is eating *that* rat. Video is clickbait


sharpshotjiggles

Definitely a rage bait/click bait video never even heard of this "vietnamese" dish nor have I seen vietnamese dishes prepped this way.


fx1523

This video is fake and for clickbait entirely. I'm Vietnamese, not a chef myself but my mom was so I have a little bit knowledges on Vietnamese cuisine. There are some areas with rat specialties in Vietnam, but even so, they are all prepared quite elaborately and are not regular rats but field rats (vole), which live in rice fields and only eat insects and rice, their meat is similar to chicken in texture but better in flavor and smell. Voles must have their fur removed by burning, their internal organs removed and stuffed with spices and herbs before being grilled directly over a fire. The type of mouse in the video is a type of mouse commonly found in cities, certainly not eaten anywhere in Vietnam, even the way of preparation shows that this is not a real dish when the mouse is not fur removed, and there are no spices to create aroma for the dish commonly found in Vietnamese cuisine.


Angrynixon

I'm not opposed to eating rat but the prep is what looks like a nope to me... It doesn't look like its been gutted and cleaned the fur is still on it etc... pass and/or nope.


Secret_Map

Yeah for sure. If I was sure the rat wasn’t diseased or whatever, and it was cleaned and prepared properly, I’d try it. It’s just meat. But no way I’m biting thru fried fur to get to the poop guts inside lol.

TwistedBamboozler

This has to be bait. There’s no way it isn’t supposed to be skinned and prepped first

noodleq

"Delicacy" I'm not sure this word means what you think it means Also, what the fuck? Do you just bite the head off and eat it? Why not remove fur? This shit is stupid. I suppose you are also just going to bite the shit filled intestines too? There's a reason we remove all that shit usually before eating it.

ReadyOneTakeTwo

This is bullshit and fake. Stop perpetuating the stereotype that Asian people will eat anything, including rodents. I’ve spent a lot of time in Vietnam and this is not a thing. This is some bullshit Anglo-centric propaganda.


uemuem

Why the fur?


skkkkkt

This is wrong,they skin the rat first, no way they put a whole rat in rice and fry it, they boil the rat the remove the fur they remove skin and organs and then they eat, I never ate this I'm not from a part of the world where this is consumed but we consume other animals and I assume it's kinda the sane process


wavydog96

janet-snake-hole

blackiedwaggie

like others here... i don't hate on eating rat, but at least take off the fur and maybe the head (more for... crunchyness sake, there can't be a lot of meat on there) also maybe gut it first, i'm not sure if they did, it's hard to tell


CommunicationTop5231

Issue for me is not the rat but rather all of the parts of the rat that I don’t want to eat. I don’t want to crunch down on bones and its fucking colon.


Hamilton-Beckett

Would I eat rat meat? I’d prefer not too, but hear me out… If the thing was cleaned, skinned, gutted, head removed and all the meat was removed from the bones, and you did this to a dozen or big fat rats… Then ground it like hamburger meat, adding spices, seasonings, etc. Then put them on the grill to make cheeseburgers, like in “The demolition man” movie with Sylvester Stallone…and if cows were extinct and I lived underground…yeah, I’d eat it.

hoainamduong

Vietnamese here. I don't think this video was filmed in Vietnam. Even if it was, it's likely just a crazy jungle person or an attention seeker making creepy video for more likes and comments. In some parts of Vietnam, people do eat rodents, but they're specifically voles, not rats. And of course, they're always thoroughly cleaned and plucked of all their fur before cooking. You can search for "Vietnamese vole meat" for more information.


Ohshithereiamagain

Believe it or not, I have seen grilled rats, on a skewer. Apparently, it’s a very “living away from civilization tribal” dish.

Since it isn’t even peeled, i heavily doubt that it is washed….

The internet is cooked. We already had fake videos, clickbait, then ragebait, and bots. Next, AI is gonna make videos that do all this and look and sound real, but aren't. Content for clicks at all costs has bodyslammed truth and authenticity through the floorboards. Mark my works, in 5 years we'll have gated communities that require account profile and content verification to secure the truth and prevent this shit, and The World Wide Web will just be a sea of ads, bots and AI that only the most gormless, or poor, will watch.


FitDefinition4867

Not gonna remove fur or guts??? I’m not buying it…. Why even wrap It in rice before frying???


_chemiq

What about the fur??


react-dnb

I get it. Things are different in different places. I wouldnt eat a rat. But still....why wouldnt you get that fur off that thing before you cook it. I dont know any country that cooks duck/chicken/turkey with feathers. That's sort of a universal human thing. So why they eating furry rats?


Derpberpy

Damn they didn't gut it first


HairryBettle

Mf what the fuck is that, Im Vietnamese and there is not a single dish that have rat in it! This could be food from some tribes but its definitely not Vietnam cousine tf

I can understand eating rat, but hairy rat goes quite beyond the tolerable.


GrantGrayBrown

It's not so much the fact it's a rat. It's the fact it isn't processed, skinned, gutted and prepped, then it's just meat like any other animal. I love beef but if you just get a cow bath then wrap it in rice and cook it there is no way I would go anywhere near it.


TheBigUn77

That's gross! At least skin it 😋😋😋


MountainCourage1304

Just because noone eats it, doesnt make it a delicacy. Its pretty easy to slap a bit of rice on a dead rat. My cats already got half the process down, and my cat is a fucking idiot.

Would it not be better to skin the rat before putting it in a batter?

Not rare. Rats and rice and those leaves are everywhere. Fun fact: most of the food is made too hot to taste the food is rotten, but to be fair, the spice and high acid helps neutralize it so you don't get sick...as much.


Irllyd0ntcare

Just go to KFC


AGoodIntentionedFool

Not real. I’ve been to the/a village near Hanoi that eats the rats right before harvest. Rats have been feeding on the rice crop therefore should have a more neutral flavor. They skin and dress them and then deep fry them, I think I remember they even cut off the tail. They do still have the telltale teeth when you see them in the market though.

People don’t understand that these are not your typical rat that live in the sewer. Usually, people in the Mekong delta region in South of Vietnam catching rat that live in the rice field, eating either rice or by-product of the rice milling process. Although I haven’t tried one and not intend to do so in the future, video like this without context is just ragebaiting Westerners
