Site Supporter Spider Posted February 1, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted February 1, 2020 There’s thousands of people in the next postcode who eat lobby on a regular basis and live, in some cases, into their mid 60’s. A microscopic bug will barely register. One spoonful of lobby and the WHO can pack up and go home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bolty58 Posted February 2, 2020 Members Share Posted February 2, 2020 Just watched a programme down here on Chinese food markets. FFS, cages of live toads, trays of slugs, hamsters/guinea pigs, scorpions and all manner of weird shit. A lot of business associates down here have visited and most have said sea slugs are the worst thing they had to eat (to avoid insulting hosts). I thought the Aborigines were bad with their witchetty grubs and some slimy tapeworm things they harvest from mangrove roots and eat immediately but the Chinese take it to another level.

Lobby some kind of watery stew that looks like an abandoned pond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 2, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2020 I thought the original 'tater hash was minced beef and sliced potatoes boiled to within an inch of their lives. later on replacing mince with cubed of corned beef.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 2, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2020 Whilst on the subject of corned beef, is there an age in a man's life where you go from completely fucking up the opening of a tin of corned beef with cuts all over your fingers and a key without any tin strip around it to being somewhat an expert? It isn't a practice thing because it isn't something you get better at. It just happens that one day all of the tin strip stays on the key.

It's when you realise it's not a fucking sprint to open a can.

Mate at work went to Dalian a few years back and was given what he assumed was a gazpacho soup - after slurping it down he was informed it was actually frog's ovaries. He met an ex-pat over there who did confirm that things are a bit unusual. He recalled that early on after moving there he took his - also UK - missus down town as she wanted to get a pet cat. At a stall she saw one that was really cute and looking at her lovingly, so she said let's have that one - whereupon the stall owner hoiked it out, chopped its yed off with a cleaver, skinned it and popped it in a bag for her.

I'm currently out of piccallilli so my favourite butty is off the menu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
