Time
for some gross facts
Miso
is a Japanese paste made from rice, barley and soybeans that is mixed
with fungus.......yuck
In
China it's considered a delicacy to leave eggs to rot for months,
turning the yokes green, before the are eaten.....really gross
Offal
are the internal organs of an animal
Tripe
is the rubbery lining of a cow's stomach.......no thank you
Black
pudding is a blood sausage cooked until it goes solid...........why,
just why
Okay I read through all of them and this one got me: Black pudding is a blood sausage cooked until it goes solid...........why, just why?
ReplyDeleteOkay, so let's put a spoonful of Miso and a spoonful of Vegemite in front of me, and see which one I'll give a try...
ReplyDeleteIn China, do they like their ham green as well?
Black pudding we just called blood pudding. Before I got a chance to try it, though, the slaughterhouses were forbidden to sell the blood anymore.
I knew what tripe was, but now I do wonder why the Chinese don't get sick from eating rotten eggs.
ReplyDeleteSandie.......Glad you liked it
ReplyDeleteChris......You don't eat vegemite by the spoonful, that wuld be yuck
Karen......I wondered that too
I have used miso in soup before. Didn't know about the fungus--LOL!
ReplyDeleteAll of the rest are super gross. ;)
My grandma talked me into trying tripe when I was a teenager. To this day I shiver a little when I Thulfiqar that day.
ReplyDeleteRita.....Yep they are
ReplyDeleteRick.....Yuck, no way I would try it
I've never eaten any of these items and don't think I'll try them in the future. Thank you for the information.
