Chinese Eat Baby Soup for Sex
One Baby Policy Blamed for Killing Babies in China

Some of the Chinese people are known to be eating babies and the news circulated through the internet or via Email communication is shocking the world.

An Email report received by The Seoul Times confirmed that news with several vivid and appalling pictures of human embryos fetuses being made into a soup for human consumption.

The report went on. A town in the southern province of Canton (Guangdong) is now on trend taking baby herbal soup to increase overall health and stamina and the power of sexual performance in particular.

The cost in China currency approximately $ 4000 (it is about Rs2000).

A factory manager was interviewed and he testified that it is effective because he is a frequent customer.

It is a delicacy whereby expensive herbs are added to boil the baby with chicken meat for eight hours of boiling and steaming.

He pointed to his second wife next to him. She is 19 years old. The 62-year-old man testified that they have sex everyday.

After waiting for a couple of weeks he took this reporter to the restaurant when he was informed by restaurant manager that the spare rib soup (local code for baby soup) was now available.

This time it was a couple who have two daughters and this third one was confirmed to be a daughter again. So the couple aborted the baby which was five months old.

Those baby who is close to be born and die naturally costs 2000 in China currency. Those aborted ones cost a few hundreds in China currency.

Those couples who did not want to sell dead babies, placentas can be accepted also for couple of hundreds.

One local reporter was quoted as saying that this is the problem arising from Chinese taking too much attention in health or is the backfire effect when China introduced one child in a family policy.

This heinous crimes rise from the fact that majority of Chinese people prefer to have male babies and the poor families end up selling their female babies.

Dead babied can be purchased in Taiwan for 70 US dollars for being used as grilled delicacies.

Uhm that's grose
I really didn't need to see those pics.. Now someone's probably feeding off my emotional uproar!

 

[Mountain Crown]

Was this necessary?

 

[Laura]

I gotta admit this is pretty disturbing, but if this is really going on, geeze, humanity is descending lower and lower and the end is not yet in sight.

 

[mugacoffee]

I don't know if this is real or not, but if the lizzies ever dined out, I'd imagine this is what they'd eat.

 

[Nawd]

Please please could you possibly put a link on this instead of just posting pictures. I have children who frequent this room and I personally avoid looking at stuff that is this horrifying.

 

[mugacoffee]

I can't remover the pics, I can only modify the text. sorry.

Edit. Oh a mod has modified it.

The only source I could trace back was the Seoul Times (renowned for being a "serious" newspaper). However it appears that a few years ago, the same kind of story (with pics) spread around the Net about Chinese (or Thai, or Koreans or Japanese, depending on the version) eating fetuses. It appeared those pics were "art pics" from a Chinese "artist", Zhu Yu, who had stolen aborted fetuses from a hospital in order to eat them as part of his "work" on life and death: _http://www.taipeitimes.com/news/2001/03/23/story/0000078704

In any case, this is absolutely… well there's no word for it

Aborted Babies are Being Sold For Food in Taiwan and China-Fiction!
(Last updated 12/31/01)

There are several versions of this eRumor. Some are regarding China. Others are regarding Taiwan. They all claim that aborted fetuses are being purchased for cooking and eating. Many of the eRumor emails include pictures of an Asian man who appears to be eating a barbecued baby.

The Truth:
These eRumors about babies being a delicacy in Taiwan or China are a hoax. The realistic looking pictures are of a controversial Chinese Artist from Shanghai named Zhu Yu. According to the Taipei Times newspaper, he has an artistic performance titled "Infatuation on Injuries." A part of the presentation is a scene he calls "Man-Eater" during which he appears to be eating from a cooked human fetus. In his interview with the Taipei Times, he admitted that it is a real fetus that was stolen from a medical school and that he cooked himself.

A Malaysian tabloid paper titled Perdana published pictures of Zhu Yu's performance but claimed they were from a Taiwanese restaurant that served the fetuses to customers. The article infuriated Taiwan, which does not condone eating human flesh, and the government demanded the paper print a retraction.

It should be pointed out that even though this story about fetuses being menu items and sold for food is not true, there are cultures, including Asian ones, that believe in magical powers of ingesting various unusual biological substances such as placentas, umbilical cords and stillborn or aborted fetuses.

Nut case.

Even though these pictures, and the very idea of this practice, are unbelievably obscene, I think we should consider that it may be a smear campaign aimed at the Chinese. One of the most effective ways to demonise the people of another country is to accuse them of unspeakable practices against babies and children. For example, during the Gulf War, a young woman, claiming to be a nurse who had worked in a Kuwaiti hospital, stated that Iraqi soldiers had removed premature babies from their incubators and left them to die on the cold floor. This woman was later revealed to be the daughter of the Kuwaiti (?) ambassador to the USA, and her tale a fabrication.

A Malaysian tabloid paper titled Perdana published pictures of Zhu Yu's performance but claimed they were from a Taiwanese restaurant that served the fetuses to customers. The article infuriated Taiwan, which does not condone eating human flesh, and the government demanded the paper print a retraction.

Given the level of accomplishment of Hollywood special effects, it would not be at all difficult to create 'photos' like these. They do look real, though. Yuck.

Zhu Yu is an 'artist'? And this is 'art'? I feel sick.

That’s what I was thinking.
One reason I think there’s something not quite true with this is if you were making a meat stew you’d more than likely chop it up into small bite size pieces, not throw a big lump in the pot.
The person whose done this must be a right sicko!

One of the sott editors did a Lexis Nexis search on this topic and discovered a series of stories dating back to 1995 which we think this article is from. The Chinese government denied that this practice was happening, but their denials are de riguer, though the BBC broadcast following the UPI below does sound like a more believable explanation.

Human fetuses are health food to Chinese

SECTION: General News

LENGTH: 440 words

DATELINE: HONG KONG, April 12

Human fetuses are gaining popularity as a health food item across the
border in the southern Chinese boomtown of Shenzhen, a local newspaper
reported Wednesday. The Eastern Express reported that its sister
publication, Eastweek magazine, conducted an investigation recently
and found that fetuses were being eaten for reasons such as improving
one's complexion and treating asthma.

A Hong Kong-based doctor
surnamed Wong, who practices western medicine, scoffed at the myth
that fetuses are highly nutritious, saying they contain
mucopoly-saccharide, which is beneficial to metabolism, but those
nutrients also can be found in a lot of other foods, the report said.
But fetus aficionados in China claimed they are delicacies which can
be made into stews or soups, combined with ginger, orange peel and
pork. Human embryos are believed to have more health benefits than
eating placentas, they said.

One mainland doctor said fetuses can be
ingredients in meat cakes simply by adding minced meat. But, she
warned, more ginger and chives would need to be added to get rid of
the smell, a problem many people have with fetuses. The doctor, Zou
Qin of the Luo Hu Clinic, explained that ''people normally prefer
(fetuses of) young women, and even better, the first baby and a
male.''

The specimens can be purchased at Shenzhen hospitals and
clinics, which carry out extensive abortion services because of
China's birth control policy which limits families to one child in the
cities and two in rural areas. Last year, for example, doctors in the
People's Hospital -- Shenzhen's biggest -- performed more than 7,000
abortions, the newspaper reported.

The going rate for a fetus is about
$1.28 (10 Hong Kong dollars), but when the merchandise was in short
supply, the prices allegedly could rise to $2.56 (20 Hong Kong
dollars), the investigative reporters found. One private clinic
charged as much as $38 (300 Hong Kong dollars) per fetus.

Zou defended
the delicacy, while other proponents like her tout the embryos as food
supplements to strengthen one's body and improve one's kidneys. ''They
are wasted if we don't eat them,'' Zou said. ''The women who receive
the abortions here don't want the fetuses. Also, the fetuses are
already dead (when we eat them). We don't carry out abortions just to
eat the fetuses.''

Dr. Margaret Kwan, a gynecologist who until two
weeks ago held the post of chief executive of the Hong Kong Family
Planning Association, told the newspaper the reports were ''the
strangest thing I have ever heard coming out of China. I just hope it
is not true.''

SCANDALS;
Shenzhen foetus sale report "distortion" of facts and "sheer fabrication"

SOURCE: Source: Zhongguo Tongxun She news agency, Hong Kong, in
Chinese 1221 gmt 4 May 95

SECTION: Part 3 Asia - Pacific; CHINA; INTERNAL AFFAIRS; FE/2297/G

Text of report by the Hong Kong-based news agency Zhongguo Tongxun She

Hong Kong, 4th May: In response to a recent report by a Hong Kong
weekly magazine that "Shenzhen sells foetuses as food" , a relevant
person in Shenzhen told reporters of this news agency that the report
was inaccurate, and that no one in Shenzhen sells foetuses. The
allegation that "some public hospitals in Shenzhen have been selling
foetuses as a tonic" , was sheer fabrication, and a distortion of the
facts by some Hong Kong people who had resorted to trickery.

The spokesman said that Shenzhen has strict regulations on how to
handle abortion extracts. According to investigation, no one in state
medical units and community medical organizations has sold foetus es
or abortion extracts. Medical organizations throughout the city have
assigned specific personnel to burn abortion extracts according to
standardized regulations. Regarding the organizations that illegally
and privately provide abortion services, once they are discovered,
they will be dealt with severely. According to investigations, in
early April, a man and a woman who claimed to be Hong Kong residents,
went to the Shenzhen City Maternity and Child-Care Clinic saying that
because they have poor health, they wanted to buy foetuses. When a
nurse told them that foetuses were not available, they said they
wanted abortion extracts. The nurse told them that all abortion
extracts have to be treated and could not be kept, adding that she had
no idea that abortion extracts could be used as health food.
The woman insisted that she had poor health and needed them to treat
her illness. The next day, the nurse gave them a bottle of abortion
extracts, and when they offered the nurse money, the nurse said: "No
one wants this thing; you want it, you take it, free of charge." It is
not known why the weekly magazine went so far as to write the incident
into "selling them as tonic" .
