There was jackfruit, sticky rice, pineapple, tamarind and the familiar bananas, pineapple, prawns, chicken (these chickens have run back-and-forth to get to the other side a few too many times)...and the very unusual.
Marijuana, freely available but if you are caught, prepare to spend mega-years in a Cambodian jail. Fried frogs, snakes and the utterly gross - huge Tarantulas. All swimming in a puddle of who knows what they fried them in... Definitely not for me...
