You want  ? You got it. Skirlie. Oatmeal and onion, fried in beef dripping. You mix that with a little fat, suet, bread, put it in a sausage casing, you got a white pudding.  Scottish cooking is basically "Find the cheapest ingredients you can, fry it in fat, blot it a little, and enjoy.

Oatmeal porridge is probably the  est of all the foods. Basically you take oatmeal and water and boil it: My grandfather was practically raised on it and as a result he resented it all his life.

If you look around carefully enough you might be able to find a Dutch grocery somewhere relatively close to you. We've got two of them in Ottawa and I know I've seen/heard of them in other cities as well. You should be able to search for "Dutch store" or "Dutch food" or whatever on Google Maps and have it attempt to locate any relevant businesses in your area.

On a recent trip through Ecuador, we had barbecued guinea pigs. Guinea pigs done the right way can be very tasty, but these were pretty much skinned, rolled in salt, impaled up the anus with a big stick and held over an open fire for half an hour. The result: As you can see, we were all rather unenthusiastic about our impending meal. It was horrible, basically just salt and fat and bone. The restaurant owners let us cook them ourselves though, which was way more fun than the actual process of trying to eat them. Also nthing the durian thing. In Malaysia we lived a few miles away from a plantation, and trucks transporting them to the city would pass right by the house. They were never cleaned, and covered in years worth of squished durian bits. I swear you could smell those things coming before you heard them.

The Oreo butter would be great if you were doing a diorama of the La Brea Tar Pits out of food (or a food-based recreation of a famous oil spill, like the Exxon Valdez in 1989 or the one that happened in 2010 on the Gulf of Mexico). I'm only saying that because I miss my Garde Manger class in California. My class made some crazy poo poo out of common foods.

Stop eating live food, people. Just stop it right now and we'll forget about what happened in the past. quote:Ikizukuri, also known as ikezukuri, is the preparation of sashimi made from live seafood. The most popular sea animal used in ikizukuri is fish but octopus, shrimp, and lobster may also be used. The practice is controversial owing to concerns about the animal's suffering, as it is consumed while still alive. There are videos on youtube of fish and octopus and god drat whatever being eaten alive. I would ask why but I don't want to know. Stop.

Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:Last week, I got to try this. I've seen this before and thought it was some sort of faux-Thai casserole in satay sauce, which didn't sound too bad. But the recipe I found through Wikipedia says that the base is supposed to be Heinz-type chili sauce mixed with cream; wouldn't that give it something like the flavor of heated thousand island dressing, with some mushy peanuts and bananas? I'm not sure if I could stomach a combination like that.

Francostein posted:So you buy five packs of buns and four packs of hotdogs. Is it more American to overbuy food or to not be able to do math at a third grade level? The most American thing is probably buying 40 lovely supermarket hot dogs at a time to be honest. Nobody wants that many greasy gutcloggers just sitting there in the fridge and freezer, taunting them. They want to buy eight loving hot dogs and eight loving buns and then eat the hot dogs and feel sort of gross and regretful and have done with it until a month or two later when they're shopping and think, "oh hey, hot dogs, haven't had those in a while."

Palpatine MD posted:This clip always disturbed me: In Shanghai a couple of times I had a dish that was also supposedly "alive" -- paper-thin slices of fish that waggled and waved around for a couple of minutes after they brought it out. I'm pretty sure it was just steam escaping and making the pieces move, but it was pretty spooky how much the slices behaved like dying fish gasping for air. Why that is appealing at dinner I have no idea, but it was a big deal every time.
