The cultural clashes The most popular ones tend to have to do, on many occasions, with issues related to feeding. A simple visit to a supermarket and checking the products on its shelves goes a long way because it allows you to discover differences in prices but also in ways of presenting and consuming popular foods.
A good case of this was experienced a few months ago by a Cuban who currently lives in Galicia and who was amazed to see how something very typical in her country here goes completely unnoticed to the point that they gave it to her, without charging her anything in return. A similar feeling has Jiajun Yina young Chinese man who has lived in Spain for years and is known on social networks as ‘El Chico Mercadona’.
In your account TikTok @jiajunyin3 She publishes curiosities about her daily life and about Chinese culture, from how she manages her dual nationality to how to start learning Chinese or what it is like to go to a hair salon in her native country. Gastronomic topics also occupy many videos and a few weeks ago he uploaded a video about a part of the chicken that is widely consumed in China, which has more than 158,000 views.
“They are very good”
“The chicken legs are delicious,” he begins his video, aware that many Spaniards may think “how disgusting” but making it clear that they are very delicious and that “you don’t know what you’re missing». Jiajun points out that he knows of cases of many compatriots who buy as many as they can. His mother, who also does it, was known as “the Chinese girl with chicken legs,” he remembers with a laugh.
The young man insists that “it’s delicious, don’t kid me…” and admits that whenever he finds it in an Asian restaurant he orders it. In addition, he reveals, with images of the dishes, that there are two typical ways to cook it, “one keeping the bones a little and the other is removing the bones.” Jiajun goes further and shows that chicken feet are also sold “in the shape of ‘snack’».
«Give him a chance. You will notice that there are chicken legs in the Chinese restaurant you go to»

The ‘influencer’ continues with different recipes with which they are served. Thus, it shows a version made in the traditional Cantonese style and another with lemon, and without bones in which “you don’t have to be there peeling it with your tongue and your teeth.” To finish, Jiajun assures that “one day of your lives“If you haven’t tried it, try it.”
«Give him a chance. You will notice that at the Chinese restaurant you go to, a Chinese restaurant for Chinese we go, there is this thing about chicken legs,” he finishes before repeating that It is “a delight”. In the comments, many Spaniards have pointed out that this part is known here. “Chicken feet are eaten in Spain, today’s youth are the ones who don’t want them,” says one user. «Pure collagen!!! “The pig’s and beef’s trotters too!!!,” added another Internet user, which caused a third person to claim that “I love the offal.”
