Contrary to popular belief, fish
balls are not made from the testicles of male fish. They are, in fact, traditionally made from fish meat made into a paste and rolled into
balls. However, fish is getting expensive these days, so most of the fish
balls you can find are made with a large percentage of flour and flavorings.
In Hong Kong, fish balls are commonly found in street stalls and in restaurants. They can be served on sticks, in bowls, with soup and noodles, with curry, in hot pot, etc.
Sam-I-Am: Would you like some fish
balls?
Random person: WTF?! Fish
BALLS? No way!
Sam: Would you like them in a house? Would you like them with a mouse?
Random person: I do not like fish
balls. I do not like them, Sam-I-Am.
Sam: Would you eat them in a box? Would you eat them with a fox?

Random person: Say! I do like these fish balls! They're so chewy and bouncy!
