SHOT FROM THE MENGHAI MARKET

I recently went on a three-day trek into the hills of the Xishaungbanna region of Yunnan. Our first stop was a crazy market in the town of Menghai. I've been in Asia for five years now and have seen A LOT of markets, but this one may be the most impressive, in terms of variety, color, and the exotic.

This is literally the ass of a pig, complete with intact pigshit tube. Is it for food, or "recreation?"
