Food heaven & hell

[jivafox]

Heaven:

 

[Marina Salty]

Hell:
Tripe. Just the smell when it was being cooked made me gag as a child.

Had no idea this nightmare was translatable in English before this post, but yes it's disgusting.

Sandwich spread, just why???
This German delicacy - Kesselfleisch, boiled pork. Basically all parts of a pig (including the head, tail and hooves) boiled in some broth. This picture is actually appetizing compared to what it usually looks like:

My dog loves it but it's only an occasional special occasion/ birthday treat for him because his tripe farts are something else

This reminded me of another hell: fish eggs.

Yeah people think they don’t like boba/bubble tea, wait until they are salty bursting unborn sea creatures

Surprised nobody thought anything odd about fish sperm

M&S and Aldi had some mac and cheese toastie last year, not that different I'd say...

I’m just a sucker for a limited edition flavour. They have all sorts in that series, usual ones like jam, then steadily more “ok I guess?” Like chocolate and whipped cream, or honey and margarine, then through to carbonara and fried noodles

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Just wondering what Moopy will make of my lunch, sitting at a train platform eating a Spaghetti Carbonara sandwich.
It was out of grim curiosity more than anything, it even had bits of spaghetti in it

“It even had bits of spaghetti in it” INDEED

WHAT DID YOU EXPECT

Sort of relatedly, this is certainly a MEMORY

File that one under HELL

 

[lolly]

Heaven - crab
Hell - liquorice

I hate to say it but the long-awaited macaroni pie I had when in Glasgow was similarly disappointing if obviously not AS disappointing. I went to Old Salty’s so I don’t think the vendor was the issue. Maybe I just wasn’t in the mood? Or maybe it needs some quantity of tomato? (I suppose I could have used ketchup)

Where can you eat it?

Try blowing a fish

It's Japan!

 

[COB]

Heaven: fillet steak and a bowl of chips to myself
Hell: most other things (fussy here x)

Insert Aquamarine joke from Jennifer's Body here

 

[COB]

Also heaven: a CHEESEBOARD

 

[COB]

And of course the range of grotty corn snacks we've all discussed ad nauseum in various crisps lounges over the years (Quarter Backs, Oinks and so forth).

How do they collect that btw?

 

[COB]

Very carefully!

[COB]

Not optimal but I'd take it! Like the Babybel wrapper trying to eat the cheese, Pac-Man style

 

[GNL]

My childhood lunchboxes alternated between dairylea sandwiches and BILLY BEAR HAM. What a time to be alive.

 

[Marina Salty]

Very carefully!

I think I've seen fish ejaculating while I was snorkeling but am not sure it was sperm they were releasing.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

@COB Rather than giving me a care emoji which you know I hate () - enjoy your Dairylea, it’s poisoned - do tell me if there’s somewhere else I should have gone for macaroni pie. AND DON’T PRETEND YOU’VE NEVER INDULGED

 

[COB]

I genuinely have never had one before I only had macaroni and cheese AT ALL for the first time about ten years ago, somehow!

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Goodness gracious. Glaswegian credentials STRAIGHT OUT THE WINDOW! You’ll be telling us you’ve never had a battered Mars Bar next

Who else can I ask? @ZenGiraffe! Achtung! ACHTUNG!

I have never had a macaroni pie, but I have had a battered mars bar.

HOW OR WHY HAVE NEITHER OF YOU EVER HAD A MACARONI PIE

You do however get a small amount of credits and a free, only slightly torn copy of Madam X for having sampled your other local delicacy

Well I don't like macaroni and I'm no huge fan of savoury pies either.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

I think my having indulged makes me 10% more Scottish than either of them



HAND ME MY KILT WOULD YOU DOUGLAS

 

[GNL]

Is it... is it nice?

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Mere DETAILS AND EXCUSES my dear boy!

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Is it... is it nice?

I enjoyed it but did feel like I knocked a decade off my life at the same time.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Is it... is it nice?

I bet they’re fantastic filth. There was a place round the corner from my hotel which sold them but I never found the right moment. NEXT TIME!

[Diddy]

Where can you eat it?

Just in seafood restaurants! It looks somewhere between jizz and blancmange

Oh I forgot @Queen of the Bay if you don’t want fish eggs then keep away from Mentaiko - I think it’s the whole egg sac or something from a cod fish, it looks like when you’ve mostly used a bar of soap and it gets all flat and oval - except it’s made of fish eggs

WHAT DID YOU EXPECT

fair, but I thought it might just be the sauce as a sandwich filling! Mind you, you can get SPAG BOL sandwiches as a NORMAL option

 

[Eddie]

Tinned FRUIT COCKTAIL was vile of course, and I could never recognise a single fruit in it! Except the truly evil CHERRIES.

I love cherries but Glacé cherries are THE WORK OF THE DEVIL.

Remembering Iguana's face of disgust when I straight up made a spag bol sandwich at dinner quite early on in our relationship. "that is disgusting" I think was how it went.

Mr Sheena has a saying that "Everything is better in a sandwich".

We tested this theory in a bored day at work once- A cottage pie sandwich was the winner. But the ice cream I bought for comedy effect and served on a granary bap went down quite well.

Cottage pie sounds messy, but absolutely can see it working.

I'll happily shove leftover spag bol in a sarnie. God's work. By that I mean Kylie.
