There are loads of gimmicky restaurants out there, and the one that's getting all the attention right now is the penis restaurant in China. That's right, quit your giggling, I did indeed say penis. According to the folks at the Times — who tried several different kinds — it was actually pretty tasty. In fact, they describe the bull's privates as "sweet and crispy, with a deep taste of soy and honey."
Why would anyone eat penis? Aside from the surprisingly pleasant taste, the more than 30 types of animal-penis dishes — that's yak shown above — are said to strengthen a man's sexual ability.
So tell me, would you ever eat penis?

That is nasty. Bring that to my table and I will Yak.
1I remember hearing about this place. Well, I've probably eaten most other parts of the cow, so I wouldn't mind trying this.
I wouldn't want it served like that, though--I'm not going to want it to look like what it is.
2i want to say i'm adventurous enough to try it, but if it was served up looking so penis-y...i don't think i could.
3I saw this place featured on one of the Food Network shows and... it didn't look very appetizing.
4um.... not a chance in you know where.
5You know Andrew Zimmern, host of Bizarre Foods. Well he and I have very little in commmon.
6So many things could be said about this.
I think I'll leave it at: no thank you.
7Don't think so.
8Things like this are probably why China didnt have any restaurants in the top 50 list from yesterday
9okay, no with some Hell No on top.
If it was chopped up and hidden in something else, I wont lie - Id probably eat it.
But looking schlongy like that? no.
10Why on earth? Give me a break already. Do people have nothing better to do with their time and money?
11I had to take a double take of that picture. Sorry, definitely not for me.
12Nope. Couldn't do it. That just doesn't appeal to me.
13Yuck-o. I'm not a very adventurous eater anyway.
14I've already had rocky mountain oysters, so gimme some o' that pizzle, fo' shizzle.
15I'm sorry but I can't stop laughing!!
16Gimmicky and unappealing.
17I would try it, I am not a wimp
18I would consider myself an adventurous eater but a girl has got to draw a line somewhere! Eek, no thanks.
19AW HELL NO!
I have a rule regarding eating meat. I will not eat any part of an animal that could have seen me, tasted me, digested me, thought about me, no part of an animal's endocrine system or well procreated with another of its species.
I only eat muscle and the fat (minimally) that may be in that muscle.
20I'd try it once but I don't think there is any benefit for females though. I could why the men would eat it since you know, it's suppose to be the food version of viagra. Anywho...
21I'm so sad with the way people are reacting to this.
While it may seem a little gimmicky, honestly only if it was a restaurant in the western world would I consider it to Truly be gimmicky.
The fact is that lots of countries eat the genitals of animals..."'make you strong'" to quote from Tony Bourdain's novel A Cooks Tour.
Get out of your comfort zone and try something new for a change.
22View things from a different perspective.
Why does the culture of China eats everything that moves? =S
23Other then that, I've seen worst. In Japan, there's a restaurant that sales human fried baby!
24holy crap. no, thank you. and I do have a cultural perspective and eat an extreme variety of foods. but private parts...sorry. just never is happening. EVER.
25hey why not. it's just another piece of meat, right? and so many of us have these in our mouths often enough anyway ... who hasn't always wanted to just chomp down and see what happens?
besides, i'd love to tell people that i had eaten penis. just for the reaction.
26PUKE.
27Only if my life depended on it.
28"Why does the culture of China eats everything that moves?"
Perhaps partly not to be wasteful. Perhaps partly because periods of extreme poverty have taught some that if you can eat it, better to put it to use than throw it away out of squeamishness.

Agreed!
29ugh..don't think so. just knowing what it is...eww..
30EW.
Even if I wasn't a vegetarian, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't eat that.
31Yes, I would try it! Maybe it would be tasty, I would never unless I tried it!
32Oh my, just thinking about that makes me want to gag.
33Not just no but HELL NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
34Besides why would I wan to eat something that is supposed to enhance a "MANS" sexual ability?
35maybe a male would like to have one. definitely not for a female..
36I saw Andrew Zimmern visit the penis restaurant on an episode of Bizarre Foods. I'd try it, but I'm glad we skipped this place when I toured China
37ewww..no!
38No way. And that picture is freaking me out.
39I'm with Esspresso Junkie on this one. People eat pigs feet and other innards and some cultures don't waste a single piece of the animal. My MIL who is from a tiny ranch in the middle of nowhere mexico, her and her family member will suck on the bones and eat the marrow. So I don't see the reason for the big freak out. A little narrow minded if you ask me.
40No!!
41That's incredibly ookie and I would never eat it. That said, it's a good thing -somebody- is... best to put the whole animal to use I guess!
42I don't see what the big deal is. I'm a vegetarian, so I wouldn't eat it, but why would people freak out over it? Anyways, long story short, if I'm going to have a penis in my mouth, it's going to be attached to a guy, not served on a bed of lettuce.
43Not only is that disgusting, but an endangered animal was more than likely poached to supply it. The restaurant should be shut down.
44No chance!
45I'd eat it; hotdogs look like penises and I eat THOSE.
46That is NOT a Yak penis to start with, Its a STALLION'S penis. Probably from a mini pony.
I prefer to eat them still ATTACHED to their owner and their owner still ALIVE!
This is disgusting .
47Dumbfux, if you've ever eaten hot dogs or other commercial ground sausage now you know why it tastes salty.
48What a bunch of wussies. Meats meat. Somes better than others. Not only have I eaten penis, I've eaten testicles AND vagina & uterus. I found none of them objectionable. Note I did not say they were delishious, and they wern't nasty...it's was ok...tasty.
