Is it just me or are some of those things not that weird? Sauerkraut? Root beer float? Rice and beans? (You know, the diet staple of much of the world's population...)

cupcakesfrosting · July 2010

I don't even know what Nettle Tea / Pasta is? Was it good?

cupcakesfrosting · July 2010

Oh, I know.. Root Beer Float, etc, definitely not that weird.. Maybe they are for some people? I just thought it was a fun list.. See how many of the odd things people have eaten.. "Head Cheese"?.. Eww...

AmoroAgain · July 2010

I didn't realize what they were until after I'd eaten them. http://fat-of-the-land.blogspot.com/2009/03/stinging-nettle-ravioli-with-sage.html That's pretty much what i had.

<div>Yeah, I've had a lot of that stuff, but some things make me want to throw up in my mouth a little, like insects.</div>

Heh... Head cheese:

Head cheese (AmE) or brawn (BrE) is a cold cut originating in Europe. Another version pickled with vinegar is known as souse. Head cheese is not a cheese pig (sometimes a sheep cow) in aspic. While the parts used can vary, the brain, eyes and ears are often removed. The tongue, and sometimes even the feet and heart may be included. Head cheese may be flavored with onion, black pepper, allspice, bay leaf, salt, and vinegar. It is usually eaten cold or at room temperature as a luncheon meat. but a meat jelly made with flesh from the head of a calf or or

Historically meat jellies were made of the cleaned (all organs removed) head of the animal, which was simmered to produce stock, a peasant food made since the Middle Ages. When cooled, the stock congeals because of the natural gelatin found in the skull. The aspic may need additional gelatin in order to set properly.

From my limited skimming of that list, it seemed a lot of it was mexican- and we have really limited access to traditional mexican food here (although now I fill it out, it wasn't too much mexican in reality and I've had it all before! haha).

Odd list -- a lot of those things don't seem at all exotic, but I have no idea what a few of them are. And yeah, ostrich should be on the list. And I have eaten it. Didn't much care for it -- at least the way I had it prepared, it tasted like ham, which I don't like.

@TheSun, the saddest part is, you'll never be able to have a true s'more down here. You don't have graham crackers or Hershey chocolate bars.

Next time you're in the states I highly recommend you ask your hosts about this delicacy :-)

TurtlesAllTheWayDown · August 2010

Yeah, LD, LA has 1 and 2 Michelin Star restaurants by not 3. It sucks.

Some of my favorite things are on this list. I always order eggs benedict or huevos rancheros for breakfast. And my favorite beer is 11% ABV.

Sun, I feel so sad that you don't have good Mexican food.

Posted by aMrsin09[/QUOTE] If it weren't for posting here, I'd still have no clue what a s'more is... I don't suppose they'll be available in Hawaii?

Posted by msmerymac[/QUOTE]Australia is quite multicultural so we have access to lots of different foods (particularly those from the differing regions of Asia) but given our geographic position, we have less mexican. We have mexican restaurants here, but what they serve is far from authentic.That said, in san fran we went to a mexican restaurant (numerous times! It was a bar/restaurant and became our SF home, haha) and I had lots of delicious food more authentic mexican there. And I've made huevos rancheros for breakfast a couple of times myself- no clue if it is at all authentic using the recipe I have, but it is good!
