I agree about the fish bones. In Asia the fish is usually served whole and you take what you need, I stick to the backbone area because there is less chance of getting those small bones. My Chinese friends are quite happy to pick them out, personally they are just too much trouble. (I dislike crabs for the same reason - a lot of effort for a small amount of meat)

Are we too fussy these days?
Not so much the mushrooms, but I have soup for lunch nearly every other day through the week with a couple of slices of thick toast on the side.....And I have honey every day on my porridge....
But never Tripe.....

The Chinese get away with it as their so called soup is mostly solid food just in a spicy liquid which you can use to flavour rice.
I wouldn't even say thank you for western soup.

I love baked beans (could easily eat them with any meal) and potatoes inany form except mashed. I also love chips and gravy. My partner disagrees big time.
