5.      Turtle Soup

This soup’s main ingredient is turtle meat. The type of turtle used is determined by area. In the United States and Philadelphian cuisines, the snapping turtle is used. In places such as China and Singapore the soft shelled turtle is used.

Uncommon as it is, this dish is considered a luxury wherever it is made. An alternative to this is mock turtle soup, where they use the same method of making it, only there is no turtle flesh.
