i agree.
this post moved me in many ways.
I've eaten raccoon.
In the time that it took me to read the post, write a comment that I then deleted and now write another comment, three people have replied. This post repels me, yet I cannot look away!
I've eaten smoked black bear. It tasted like brisket.
I'm so pleased to read that you will not eat monkey.
I have no idea what meat I have eaten. One of my guiding rules of dining is, "Don't ask what it is!"
I don't wanna know. Fine dining is predicated on blissful ignorance.
Yes - this really is the very best...
Do you have Tube steak on your icecream list????
that meathead looks like Richie Cunningham...
I can't tell if that baby seal picture saddens me because it's a baby seal or because it looks like Frosty the Snowman.
Never mind. It's definitely the seal. I'd eat me some Frosty with a little cherry juice! Mmm mm!
How could you forget sunfish? We've eaten hundreds of them!!
Am I the only one completely freaked out by that meat/face pic? Shudder
And technically, did you actually eat the tube shaped meat in the won ton? Or did you just notice it, freak out, and send it to them in the post?
I love the list! I popped over here from Jiggsy's place to tell you that. I'll be back...you've been warned! :)
This is an awesome list. I love it.
I'm not sure if I can say bad words here cos' I really want to right now.
Bologna, yardbird, squirrel, coon & bacon. That's it.
