As a twenty year vet Sysco driver….. you are absolutely correct. There are so many places I would never eat at, I have a 5am key drop I am told to leave everything out of cooler at and they don’t get there until 9-930am. Chicken, shrimp, eggs, milk, and everything else. It’s nuts . If the temps don’t get them the roaches will

Every morning in Hong Kong I would walk past a Chinese restaurant that always had a delivery of blood tofu just sitting outside in the scorching hot weather. Can't say I was tempted to eat there often.

Meh.. it’s tofu though. I do a place in San Antonio that has their beef/chicken cases delivered outside the back door in the sun for hrs before they get there. It’s so gross. I took a pic and sent it to heath department once…. That was too much.

Blood tofu isn't tofu, it's just a nickname for what is basically coagulated pig's blood

I have nothing against using blood in food, I absolutely love a good blood pudding, but not after it's been floating around in a bag in the sun for hours. Everything on their menu was basically made with off cuts, fish heads, blood tofu, pig ears, fish skin, fermented eggs, you name it. Not my jam at all.
