Squirrel turds.......whaat?
I'm not sure why. I'm ok with fungus and I'm ok with bugs. In fact, I have a taste for fried scorpions. But cordyceps - a parasitic fungus off a caterpillar's head? That's just nasty.

Yeah, flying squirrel turds... my favorite.
For real! The formula that most comes to mind is Shi Xiao San or "Sudden Smile Powder"... it's just the turds and cattail pollen (oddly enough called 'pu huang'). It makes one of the most effective internal pain stoppers.
My teachers all have a story how the name came about, like because it works so good and fast, or it's so simple but works so good, but I think it was more of a sly grin the original herbalist wore as he watched some poor bloke drink it down
herb ox
oh yeah...
jiang can - stiff body of diseased silkworm
sang piao xiao - praying mantis eggnest

Does it have to be a flying squirrel?
Oh yeah.
The dried human placenta, I forgot that one, reminds me of a nice thick peanut butter cookie.

AM - this is news to me. I knew flying squirrels ate some bugs, but mosquitoes are so small and fast moving it would seem like they'd need a frog's tongue to get much of a meal!
In any case, can you please point us in the direction a reference where you heard this?
thanks much

I thought that was Bat Feces, as bats eat mosquitoes and other biting insects.
Mouth Boxers have not the testicular nor the spinal fortitude to be known.
Hence they hide rather than be known as adults.
speaking of bats, anyone else as freaked out about the fact that something like 90% or so of the north-eastern bat population just up and died this year for no apparent reason?
oh, and the dried urine of a pre-adolescent boy...
