Here's a part of the chicken you never thought of eating {Slashfood}
May 8th 2007 1:56AM In Nicaragua, they call this part of the chicken the "pipi-regallo." Before a cockfight you chop off your roosters pipi-regallo and feed it to him to make him brave and strong. In other countries, the same word is slang for "clitoris."

Cruise Ship Dumping {Gadling}
Dec 14th 2006 12:56PM The legality of this is still up in the air, though I have a Belize City council person checking on it for me.

Not to mention an excuse to keep traveling, working, and living there.
