    We're Going to Eat Out of WHAT!

    TAIPEI (Reuters) - It may take a strong stomach to eat curry or chocolate ice cream out of a toilet bowl, but a commode-themed restaurant in Taiwan does booming business serving up just that.

    The Martun, or toilet in Chinese, restaurant in the southern port city of Kaohsiung boasts lengthy queues on weekends as diners wait for a toilet seat in its brightly colored tile interior.

    Food arrives in bowls shaped like Western-style toilets or Asian-style "squat pots."

    Manager Hung Lin-wen said the original inspiration came from a toilet-shaped spaceship in a Japanese cartoon. The theme has attracted droves of novelty-seeking young people who come to play with their food and gross out their friends.

    "We think the theme is special, and the food is tasty," Hung said.

    But no matter how delicious, a few customers still find the combination a little hard to swallow.

    "The taste is good, but I still feel disgusted when I look at it," said diner Lin Yu-may.

    Jesus, it's not like the toilets have been used, or actually, it's not like the bowls are actually toilets to begin with.

    I like the word "squat pot". I'm going to try to start working that into conversations.

    Are there any new advancements in toilets that I don't know about. You'd figure the Asians would have something new by now.

    Damn, I think I was turned on by that video. Not for the toilet licking, that chick had a nice tan and her back was smooth, oh and she was naked. Though you don't see anything :(. I guess growing up on the internet has given me the ability to block the weirdness and focus on the important stuff. Of course, if I wasn't 100% positive that toilet has only been used for what she was doing and nothing else, it might be a different story.

    I wouldn't eat it, because it is served in poor taste.

    If the Taiwanese want to dig in, be their guest.
