I actually don’t know many people who drink it, and I’ve lived here previously for 3 years. I think there is some superstition around it, it’s supposed to help with digestion and I don’t know how much that is based off fact or not. Some people say it speeds up your metabolism, which is the same thing they say about eating all the chills.
I haven’t, I guess the boil the best after the spit has been used and make soup out of it.
There is also ‘birds nest drink’ which is at every little shop and is essentially the same thing. A friend told me it’s very reminiscent of cum.
If it’s at every little shop as a drink, it must be popular though. Even if it does taste like cum.
Are there some local beliefs of it being medicinal or the like?

That’s still super-interesting. Thanks for indulging my curiosity!
