1. Hint

It's better with ketchup.

[gordontron]

17. yeah but spam is good with ketchup nt

[JVS]

2. looks fine

[XemaSab]

4. As far as I can tell, there are 3 meats: mutton, horse, and beef,

and 4 ways to prepare them: boiling, frying, salting, and hanging to dry.

There is no way to mix and match that that doesn't come out WRONG in my book.

[JVS]

5. It sounds delicious

[LSK]

3. you got that right!!!

What the hell does it taste like thou?

[Ellen Forradalom]

6. When are you stopping by for bagels?

I can serve them with cream cheese and dried mutton.

Seriously. I'm going to be around for a while. Stop by and avail yourself of the bounty.

[JVS]

7. Mutton and goatcheese!

[LSK]

19. Not as bad as Finnish food

[DrDan]

20. an interesting recipe from the site

recipe for jellied fish:

"800 g of fish, an onion, 1-2 laurel leaves, a carrot, 20 g of gelatin, salt and pepper to taste.

The scared fish is boiled with onion and carrot, salt and spice to madiness . . . ."



I wonder if a calm fish tastes the same as the scared one . . . .

21. If you think the food is bad...

this is the group of people who introduced fermented horse milk to the world.

[XemaSab]

22. I use the term "cuisine" broadly here

And yes, fermented mare milk doesn't sound so good.

Though it is probably used to wash down the dried, salted horsemeat. :hide:
