    Hi Dan and Apple!
    Thank you for putting in the effort to share your trip to the market and that scrumptious-looking meal! It's encouraging that there was less (or no) "bush meat" offered this time around.
    Hope you had a safe trip home!
    Take care,
    Steve L.

    That was cool! I noticed the military presence at the market. I assume they get some runners now and then.

      Border enforcement is mostly checking for stuff they shouldn't be selling. Last time here was in November 2017 when we started building our house(I remember because we did a video here and the day after I flew back to report for work and left Apple to manage the construction for 7 months). There was a lot of "bush meat", snakes, monitor lizards and small mammals. This time it was completely void of all of that. Meth pills (yaba) also comes hidden in the bags of garlic and onions from across these borders so they are just doing regular enforcement.

      This year I started cutting out sugar when possible. I love the matcha and Thai tea drinks but now it’s either water or iced coffee with no sugar. I avoid fried food and limit rice…I have dropped about 12-15lbs and it’s staying off. I think that’s a permanent adjustment. Diabetes and obesity are issues here and I can see why.

      Thai New Year is coming next month and they said every single hut will be occupied for 3-4 days straight. It was actually pretty cool but my butt started hurting after a while because I am not used to sitting like that lol.

    That was a very interesting video. All the look good, not sure about some of the things there though. Not sure about Rats though people eat Rabbits, Guinea Pigs and Squirrels so I don't imagine they're that much different. I bought some dried Mealworms, Crickets and Locust before Christmas. They were quite nice with a few beers and made a nice sandwich. I've never thought that there was much meat on Chicken's feet. I love the idea that if the food might not be safe your friend can eat it. Or would it be alright for local people who are use to it?

    • @DMExotics
      @DMExotics  6 місяців тому +1

      Local people are going to eat the local food regardless. We try to be a bit careful what we are consuming. If it makes one person sick, it is probably going to make everyone sick.

I’ve had full on arguments on here about me not wearing a hat in the sun and how I’m going to get skin cancer. I was even called a pedophile because my t-shirt had a cat on it. Better I leave it out…hard to cancel someone like me that has no sponsors and is 100% independent but not worth the headache lol.
