Bird Nest Soup...

Hi, I agree that bird nest is highly valued and hence, many fake bird nest and chemically bleached bird nest has flooded the market. One indication that it is real bird nest is that it will expand after being soaked and not melt after being cooked. The state of Sarawak is one of the leading producers of bird nest as we have many caves in this state. You can log on to www.silverglobe.com.my if you would like to try out pure Sarawak cave bird nest. My product is guaranteed to be genuine as I source only from suppliers approved by the government. In addition, you can check out some reviews on my website for upclose pictures of the bird nest. Do leave a note in the contact us form if you have any inquiries or feedback. Thanks!

I agree with you, indeed bird nest is good for skin and beauty. I don't think I eat that a lot, the no. of times can count in 5 fingers. The process of cleaning the bird nest makes me feel I eating down lots of other chemicals too. The premium quality bird nest can be very expansive. I rather eat some other good food or nutrition products in moderate price more frequent then taking bird nest once in long time. I have heard too many of the bad effect after taking it long term, one of that is skin allergy.

Yuck! I can't eat that. My mom buys it all the time and she always ask me if I want. As I recall, it tastes somewhat like sugar?

I like Birds Nest soup, it is quite expensive and rare to find. It is made obviously from their nest that comes from their drool. But Traditional Chinese medicine has taught us that it is really good for the body and has a lot of things that our body can benefit from eating this kind of soup. I just wish to find such as like that here in India, but I guess it will only be on Five Star Hotels. Anyway, if there is China Town here, i may have found it, but I guess back in my own country, that's where I can taste Birds Nest soup. Happy Mylotting.

I'm sorry I have never heard of bird nest soup. What exactly is it? It's not an actual bird's nest is it? I am guessing it is somr sort of herb or something??? Please explain because I can't imagine eating twigs and string and feathers!

I know the bird nest is good for our health, but I have not maken it as food. The nest we eat comes from a bird live in South China. Because of the small quantity they can produce one year, the price of the nest is expensive. Having the nest regularly will cost you a lot of money.

I am answering this because I have never seenit only heard about it and is it really birds nest. i mean isnt that awfully rough and fibrous, how does it have any flavor as its all just twigs and strings.surely you are joking. a nest is eaten?

Bird nest is actually a saliva of Nido bird. Here in the Philippines these birds called balinsasayaw. It is dangerous to get the nest in the cliff because they pick them without any safety equipments to protect them. They risking their lives to be able to get nest to sale. It is expensive and some believe that it has a health benefits. I haven't tried it and I don't know if I can't eat it because it is still a saliva of the bird.

Many people believe bird nest helps in their body, especially to prevent from ages . however more and more people start to challenge the idea. The price and the effects are not in balance. However if you can afford it and also you like the taste you can have it. Personally I don’t like having it. I feel it takes too long to prepare and cook for it. I prefer simple life with simple food.

i do not have the luxury to eat bird nest. i would rather spend the money to invest. i think may be woman have different thinking from man, they are more concerns on their skin beauty. Man are more concerns about money, i think, at least i am.

I still have that email if you are interested.. actually the way it was done, more for those in overseas and not in Malaysia.. Back to the topic, I will be happy if someone will just prepare the bird nest drink and serve it to me instead of me going through the hassle myself.. It's quite tedious to prepare this 'valuable' drink though... I have someone gave me as a gift of those dried ones, and I have only did once since I gave birth to my baby till now.. but I am glad that before I enter into giving birth to my baby girl, I had one bowl of it.. or else it will sure be wasted sitting in the fridge..
