Original text on this topic:
Thailand - penis. Similarly, he had not had a chance to buy recently any new rhino penises, but said he would willingly pay up to US$ 400 for one. If it is fresh, he first dries it out and then sells it by weight. A complete penis weighs about 150 grammes when dry. In the last two years, he had sold four whole penises for about US$ 800 each to a Chinese from Hong Kong, a Korean, a Japanese and a Taiwanese. These customers all knew how to use them: the penis is cut into pieces and boiled in water with other ingredients, the resultant liquid is drunk as an aphrodisiac.
