They're ALL pukers

There isn't toilet paper or soap in a single public restroom in this country. Restaurants charge you 1-3 yuan if you request a napkin. Grocery stores charge 1 yuan for a plastic bag for your groceries. Nothing is free in China except for one thing: puke bags. And they're everywhere. We've taken the most ghetto, gross buses in the world but even they have 100s of free puke bags in three different places on the bus. Why? It's 100% necessary; Chinese people are pukers – big-time.

I don't know what it is; they're just always throwing up. Of course the bus and bus stops are the worst places but it doesn't stop there. There's rice puke-piles (as we now call them) outside of grocery stores (and in grocery stores), everywhere alongside roads and in most public restrooms.

Why?! I don't think it's the filthy, unsanitary food because I'm eating the same thing and it's not making me puke (anymore). Everyone has Hep here – does that cause puking?? We asked an English speaking chinese guy about all the throwing up and he told us that Chinese women (not men) throw up commonly because they have thinner skin than men which causes the nerve that runs from the top to bottom of their forehead to become misaligned easily and this misalignment causes upset stomachs and throwing up. And, he said western women also have thicker skin than Chinese women so that's why white girls aren’t always throwing up. Yeah. The craziest thing about this is that Brandon got through the whole explanation without busting up laughing.
