Consider the pig's lungs soup as a metaphor for where we are getting at. Is nothing sacred anymore! For Private Use Only (C) Scmp Popular dishes containing pigs' offal were dropped from menus last night. At the Sun Wong Kee restaurant in Mongkok proprietors said they had stopped selling pigs' lung soup after learning about the Government's findings. "Our business will drop by 30 per cent without the soup, which is very popular. Without the soup some diners just simply don't eat at our shop," manager Lau Ping-yan said. "We sell up to 300 bowls of pigs' lung soup a day, each costing $10. It's good for your lungs and throat. We've been selling it for 40 years." The manager of Causeway Bay's Harbour City Chiu Chow Restaurant, Yeung Shu-fai, said it had dropped pigs' lung and stomach soups from the menu. "It's really troublesome. After what has happened to chicken, beef and fish - it's now pigs," he said.
