Ick! am watching tv to practice reading conversations in Norwegian/listen to real time Norwegian conversation....
Heston cooking show just came on, he´s making Medieval foods. Cooked testicles, to use the sac to make plums....basically he´s using nasty disgusting things to make "fruit". It does look really pretty though.
If they used to eat boiled testicles....(very disgusting texture, oozing mess inside)....am wondering what they used udder for....I think he´s about to show...
ick.

The udder would be used to serve the wine to the 4 guests.....
Worst I've had is Scorpion and cockroach in Thailand...
Oh! ..and sheep's brains in Brussels...

Another show was making burgers out of mealworms specially grown for the US market for restaurants (?). I didn´t realize mealworms are popular in the US. And I know if I was served a burger, then after I ate it told it was mealworms, I´d be heading for a damn good lawyer,)
--- Slightly cool yet still gross yet cool, was they took the spinal cord out of an eel like creature, which was a few feet long, then crispy fried it as a crisp garnish, for crunch. It fizzled up very tiny like fancy candy floss or sugar. (totally ignoring your roaches, scorpions and brains,)).

"they took the spinal cord out of an eel like creature"....probably an eel?
Smoked eel on the banks of the Mosel with a crisp white wine was devine.
You mentioned testicles above? There's a programme on Channel 4 tonight at 10 entitled "The man with the 10 stone testicles"!
I'll probably stay up for that...

wow, 135lbs removed to get him nearly back to normal. Bizarre all this was caused by him squishing his testicles getting out of bed. (btw I was teasing about the voice on the documentary, not about the subject matter).
Can´t understand why they left him with only, he says, an inch penis though, why didn´t they leave it the same length it was....

Yes-an-dee-dee-do Misslacker and looks like gnd did as well.
Sad story overall about the Healthcare system in the US and the sight of him using a builder's sack - the ones that they deliver sand in? - to hoist his plums on his bed did make me wince a tad.
I still can't work out where his knob was all the time he had the massive bollocks - surely not that 'thing' that was dribbling out the front?

oh can you read the main area, did you see the link(s) I posted about the medical repatriation by US hospitals of patients who are either not covered at all or not enough. The patients are non-US citizens, usually undocumented workers (who are probably paying taxes, have lived there and worked in the US for decades and have American children); some have also included travelers.

It was quite clever for him to wear a hoodie upside down as roomy pants. And yeah to your last Q:(

I've eaten sheep's testicles in Turkey. In Thailand a women banged the branch of a tree and white grubs fell down. She picked some up and offered them to us. I ate a couple (slightly acid tasting) much to Mrs Faz's dismay as she had to follow my example.

The upside down hoodie was Genius!
I would have drawn the line at that, Baz....unless a few Singhas had been imbibed followed by a Bucket on the beach at Had Rin when the bastard Full Moon Party was not taking place!

oh yuck Baz, and poor Mrs Faz having to follow your example.
Not that I would eat it, but I saw another presenter help make a "hamburger" out of a zillion tiny red ants, which had been caught live then ground in a huge pestle then hand-formed into patties, and grilled over an open flame. Quite ingenious, but still, I´m too fussy to eat bugs on purpose nowadays.
I have eaten live meal worms in my cereal, to not embarrass my friends grandma. I suppose they didn´t taste of anything, and didn´t kill me:)

Is it true that if you pour Coke over a pork chop/Loin that little worms will appear from the pork within 20 minutes?...

Reminds me of the time I had haggis while traveling in Scotland. It may be my "heritage" and all, but my main memory of it is YUCK!

Yeah - a bit like crickets and scopions in SEA.
And cabbage and pork shite in Germany. And Horse in France...etc
Each to their own but please don't slag off a Food just because you didn't like it - I dare say that the Scots didn't like you much but didn't say it to your face....

FFS!
You never taken the veins out of Lamb's kidneys; chopped them into bite sized pieces and then fried with onions and mushrooms and some cheap red wine and served with some long grain rice with soy sauce?
if so, you have never lived!
I really do recommend you try that...Come back and tell me you still hate Kidneys!
