Tonights “healthy ? ” dinner, accompanied by sauteed kale with cashew nuts.
I hope this healthy stuff makes me live longer for a while ? 🙂
Bon Appetit ! Life is Good !
This is the pork stock and some of the leftover ribs from two days ago.
Makes a great soup by adding lots of key lime juice and a raw egg yolk to stir in.
Bon Appetit ! Life is Good !
Last night’s dessert :
Jelly filled Bismarcks with fresh fruits.
Good eat’n 🙂
Last nights dinner.
If you slowly simmer the ribs until they tender, they stay wonderfully moist inside
and you have a great broth for your next soup. Then make a tasty sauce with the
pictured ingredients, smother the ribs all over and bake at 375 for 45 minutes.
Bon Appetit !
Life is Good! 🙂
Tonight’s dinner.
Very enjoyable.
Life is Good !

# 3. Baby Mice Wine
From: Korea.
What the hell is it?
What better to wash down your gelatinous lumps of lye fish than a nice chilled cup
of dead mice?What better indeed.Baby mice wine is a traditional Chinese and Korean
“health tonic,” which apparently tastes like raw gasoline. Little mice, eyes still closed,
are plucked from the embrace of their loving mothers and stuffed (while still alive)
into a bottle of rice wine. They are left to ferment while their parents wring their tiny
mouse paws in despair, tears drooping sadly from the tips of their whiskers.
Wait, it gets worse …
Do you wince at the thought of swallowing a tequila worm? Imagine how you’d feel
during a session on this bastard. Whoops, I swallowed a dead mouse! Whoops,
there goes another one! Whoops, I just puked my entire body out of my nose!

#4. Lutefisk
From: Norway.
What the hell is it?
Ahhh, Lutefisk. After the larvae-ridden cheese, it’s a blessed relief to sample a clean, down-to-earth Scandinavian recipe.
A little too clean.
Lutefisk is a traditional Norwegian dish featuring cod that has been steeped for many days in a solution of lye, until its flesh is caustic enough to dissolve silver cutlery.
Wait, it gets worse …
For those of you who don’t know, lye (potassium hydroxide/sodium hydroxide) is a powerful industrial chemical used for cleaning drains, killing plants, de-budding cow horns, powering batteries and manufacturing biodiesel. Contact with lye can cause chemical burns, permanent scarring, blindness or total deliciousness, depending on whether you pour it onto a herring or your own face. Or, so the lutefisk industry would have us believe.
Danger of this turning up in America:
IT’S ALREADY HERE!
It’ true, lutefisk is more popular in the United States than in Norway. What the hell are they doing with it? They’re not eating it are they? Is it because it’ a cheap alternative to colonic irrigation? Seriously, how do you advertise this stuff?

Today: #5 Casu Marzu
From: Sardinia, Italy.
What the hell is it?
This, dear reader, is a medium-sized lump of Sweet f…… Christ. Casu Marzu is a sheep’ milk cheese that has been deliberately infested by a Piophila casei, the “cheese fly.” The result is a maggot-ridden, weeping stink bomb in an advanced state of decomposition.
Its translucent larvae are able to jump about 6 inches into the air, making this the only cheese that requires eye protection while eating. The taste is strong enough to burn the tongue, and the larvae themselves pass through the stomach undigested, sometimes surviving long enough to breed in the intestine, where they attempt to bore through the walls, causing vomiting and bloody diarrhea.
Wait, it gets worse …
This cheese is a delicacy in Sardinia, where it is illegal. That’s right. It is illegal in the only place where people actually want to eat it. If this does not communicate a very clear message, perhaps the larvae will, as they leap desperately toward your face in an effort to escape the putrescent horror of the only home they have ever known. Even the cheese itself is ashamed; when prodded, it weeps an odorous liquid called lagrima, Sardinian for “tears.”
Danger of this turning up in America:
There is significant danger here, as we’re thinking the cheese companies have a lot of maggot stock in the back of their warehouse they’d like to get rid of. And, there may actually be a market for it. Self-loathing is a powerful force in this economy (see the diet section of your local supermarket) and there’ times you get low enough that, damn it, you feel like you deserve nothing better than infested cheese.
