Sailor? No, but he was an infantry sergeant in Korea. Think that's how he picked it up?

I've literally never met anybody else that's eaten that stuff that way and vegetables with butter is a pretty common thing in these parts.

That jar is brown sugar for putting in coffee. I'm in Australia so I don't think grits are something people eat here, especially at work.

i ate the better half of a mexcan knockoff swiss roll that was infested with maggots. It was pineapple flavor to begin with and the maggots felt and tasted like shaved coconut. They were wriggling in my mouth and it felt like eating a carbonated pina colada. I would have finished it if one of the maggots hadn't crawled out onto the arm of my couch.

Next time check the expiration date, those things stay in stores for months and months.

it was that brand, wasn't expired and out of a whole box of them individually wrapped. I'll admit I'd do it again. The maggots wriggling in my mouth against my gums and tongue made it feel like a carbonated solid. I'm not always a fan of coconut flakes but I am a fan of eating maggots.

Lots of cultures eat larvae/bugs... It's not really that weird in the grand scheme of things. I probably would have been grossed out because a) I hadn't intended on eating them and b) I hate shaved coconut but that's hardly "thread winning" level of gross.

Oh I've definitely heard of casu marzu, and right - it's not so much that I have a problem with the concept of eating bugs - it's the concept of eating maggots without intending to.

If I bit into the burrito I got for lunch and got a mouthful of maggots, and I did not explicitly order the Mondo Maggot Burrito(c), then I might have a slight issue with that.

I don't think its a pizza, it looks more like chicken nuggets with cheese and toppings, sort of like nachos if you replaced the tortilla chips with chunks of chicken.

That product is a lowbrow version of a fancy product http://www.thrillist.com/eat/new-york/midtown-west/biggest-chicken-parm-in-the-world

This also seems like a lowbrow version of a fancy product. Yes, it's fancier ingredients than your normal chicken parm, but aside from that it's just bigger... It reminds me of the Thousand Dollar Sundae the way it's extravagant and huge for the sake of it. Nowhere near on the same level, but still. Why?


e: VVV Exactly, with the Thousand Dollar Sundae, almost a third of the cost is the cup it comes in, which you get to keep after. :rolleyes:

My favorite things about all the "thousand dollar sundaes\cocktails\hamburgers\beanie wienies" is how pretty much all of them half rear end it by throwing in some gold or a diamond ring just to make them more expensive.

My favorite thing about this video is how they have the segment with the 2 stacked pizzas, it being described as something no human should eat, and then we have this pizzacake which is 4 times that.

I am horrified by reality frequently being stranger than fiction... but also wondering how people would 'improve' this beast with bacon, chocolate, and the like. I mean, gently caress, Dairy Queen has the Treatza Pizza, it's not really that much of a stretch.
