Why do Chinese people eat babies?

I am going to China with my wife and new born baby. But I am so much worried as I have heard that Chinese people eat babies. I am not sure that this is a rumor or reality, so please tell me that is it true? If yes, then why they are doing this? Is there any reason behind this behavior of these Chinese people?

This is an interesting but a very horrible rumor. Your fear is right that if it is true than it is dangerous to visit China. Especially it would be dangerous to visit with your wife and infant where these things happen. But after proper observation I have found that there is nothing to worry about.

The sources from which you have collected this news might have some cultural bias. That is why they are attacking Chinese society like this. In this modern era, if a baby eater will exist then he or she will be immediately punished by the law. China is a socialist country and their law and order is very strict. So, just ignore this rumor and don’t listen to those people who are spreading this.

But, it will be wise not to visit those areas of China where baby eating rumor exists and where there is no security. In internet there are so many images that describe preparing baby eating soup. But, they are not true because there is not even a single image that shows at the time of eating. If it does then it is a hoax only. Chinese people sometimes blame that Japanese eat babies and Japanese just do the opposite. So, be wise and be safe.
