Let's go see what kind of trouble we can get into.

They're momiji raspberries, which I would guess are golden or yellow raspberries in English. And yes, they're floating in aspic. For some reason.

No, like clear jelly that isn't flavoured with fruit and big chunks/whole pieces of different kinds of fruit.

When I got sushi in japan the sea urchin one was alright even if it just tasted like ocean, but the truly god-awful thing was giant conch. It was like a giant thing of snot but as chewy as gristle, and also tasted bad.

In my opinion conch is only good fried or in a chowder and definitely not raw.

You used to be able to buy, at any Asian grocery store, these little jelly things that were golf-ball-sized single-serve container of jello with a single chunk of fruit suspended inside. I used to buy them in bulk in high school and they were great. But they disappeared from the shelves some number of years ago, and it turned out that it was because Americans were choking on them because after swallowing the things whole instead of chewing.

Fuckin

You can still find them in some Asian groceries and you can also find them sometimes on Amazon. Just search for coconut jelly cups.

I was cooking an egg a few days ago so I put the pan into the flame and added some butter and cracked the egg onto it. However the egg was fertilized so when I cracked it I had an unborn little chick in the middle of my pan sizzling and it has me so freaked out that eggs make me lose my appetite so quickly. Should of take a picture but I was so shocked that all I wanted to do was throw it away so I no longer had to look at it. I think this is the price you pay for farm fresh eggs... :cry:

My dude you just wasted a delicacy. Fertilized egg is super good for you and full of flavor. I think they call it Balut in the Phillipines.

So the UK has taken to using "corn" in the American sense, i.e. maize (as opposed to a generic term for any grain)?

It's not uncommon when dealing directly with a farm. I find the whole chick slightly easier to parse than if you get one mid growing and it's a horror movie prop of a red blood vessel net across the thing. Knowing is half the battle so you can either buy from someone else who keeps roosters out entirely or else someone else you trust to check for embryos or else just do like people did and crack eggs into a bowl to verify what they are before they go into a pan or recipe.

They usually call it sweetcorn here. I've never heard anyone except really old people and awful pedants call it maize.

I never heard someone call corn "maize" and if someone said "lets have some maize on the cob" I'd think they were having a stroke.
