I think a more pertinent question may be "Why do Asians order/serve shark fin soup?" The answer to this question would be mainly prestige. Traditionally, shark fin is a very rare, difficult to acquire, and hence expensive ingredient. When a host orders or serves shark fin soup to his or her guests, it says the following two things:
It displays the host's wealth. The host's ability to afford and serve shark fin soup means he or she is very well off from a financial and materialistic point of view. One may choose to serve shark fin soup if one hopes to gain an elevated status before the guests.
It suggests that the guests are highly esteemed. Again, the fact that shark fin soup is very expensive means that it is not served to just any ordinary guest. If a host serves shark fin soup to the guests, that usually means that he or she considers the guests to be very important to them, whether in business or personal lives. Likewise, as a guest, if you are served shark fin soup, it means the host holds you in very high regard, and treasures the relationship the two of you share.
P.S I love love love mushrooms. All types of mushroom

serene56: What was your favorite meal that your mother or grandmother cooked
Both my Mother and my GranMother (maternal side) were great cooks and every meal they prepared was just delicious, everything fresh, home made.
some dishes:
Albóndigas (meat balls) in tomato sauce with fresh marjoram.
Chiles rellenos (stuffed peppers)with cheese+ some chopped onion (rested in lemon juice)
Rice + vegetales with dried shrimp.
Precooked chayote, cut and filled with some cheese and "capeado" (rolled in beaten egg whites+ the yolk) then slightly fried in veg oil, drained in paper towels and served with tomato sauce and herbs.
Lentils with some vegetables and cumin served with some hard egg.
Haba (Vicia faba) with sauté onion and some garlic with shrimps
Also fish meat balls sometimes slightly smoked fish.
Cubed Succhini with sauté onion, slices of poblano (roasted pepper) and corn kernels.
and many many more that I do love to cook

serene56: Those were days Berry, when food was homemade, simple and delicious Now it's an artform, calories and fat content to be counted, enjoyment a guilty pleasure
Those WERE the days all rightee....
...when we weren't bombarded from the media on what was bad for us.
Today, we're lucky we get to consume anything at all, without feeling the need to worry about it....
I still prefer home-made meals....

i don't like mushrooms and while growing up i would tell my mother don't put any in mine.
she'd say, "you can't even taste them."
i' say, "then why do even you put them in ?"
until this very day, i won't eat mushrooms.
gotta go dream, i enjoyed talking to you...
Sorry, fell asleep after reading this. I could barely open my eyes, too sleepy.
