I think kidneys and brains of pigs are like one of the best meats ever.

Once you get past the look that is.

"Welcome to Belgium: We Hope You Brought a Sandwich!"

I kid! :P

I actually ate both of them in France :p

We got blood sausages and stuff like that. And pies. And waffles. And pancakes.

Sweet potato's,Sheep's brain and Smoked Red Fin,Murray Cod,Rabbits and eat it or you'll get a clip over the ear..
My old man used to smoke the fish until it was yellow-brown,no wonder I took up smoking..

Rabbits were ok once you got the shotgun pellets out:-)

I'll occasionally have a blue cheese salad dressing, but there are some milder ones out there and I prefer those. Generally I avoid even blue cheese and gorgonzola crumbled on salads and such.

I'll sometimes have fish eggs as part of a sushi roll, but I don't eat sushi often and I generally order sashimi and nigiri.

I know some really picky eaters that won't try much. But, I can say, I have tried almost everything I list. Don't see much point in attempting chicken feet, though. :) I do know a guy who claims chicken feet are his favorite food. He is indeed a Sinophile and travels to China as a tourist once every few years.

I don't hunt for a number of reasons. But when I lived in Austin in 2010 I hung out at a house where there was always cooking going on. (All nighters before University of Texas football games over the brisket pit.) They were gifted a large amount of venison backstrap one time. Which I guess is prized by some for the tenderness? Super-gamey. <shivers again>

Well I don't have France to blame, this is the State food of Michigan, the Pasty.

They are boring enough, usually just filled with potatoes and salted pork.

This is pretty interesting. Like, CarrionCrow, I think I'm probably getting into a texture thing to some degree. (Which is the reason I almost gagged the only time I tried menudo.)

See, something with the texture of rice and/or oatmeal shouldn't taste like that! :) This takes us directly from haggis to the various types of blood sausage, many of which use rice. I haven't tried black pudding, but I've had several types of cajun boudin, including ricy & bloody. I know this is going to come out terribly wrong, but I like my sausage meaty. :)

Trivia: Some really amazing encased meats all over North America (including Mexican chorizo of course), but the best I have ever had off the continent:
-Italy, and for the life of me I can remember if that restaurant was in Milan or several candidates in Sicily
-Zagreb

Um, as opposed to liking your sausage 100 percent vegetarian? ;) -laughs-

All this talk about food... gonna make some sheperd's pie tonight. Meat and 'taters. Hard to beat it. Thanks to the English for that one. The English do three things really well, meat, potatoes, and beer.

Theme is better if you are a man who uses timetable. =)

and the link is defiance theme and the game isn't even actually bad but I don't play many mmoos

It's done here and there. I used to walk from the computer repair store in Austin to a food cart on 53 1/2 St. Totally vegan. Their bbq wasn't half bad... :)

All right, with that I'm entering download mode. I'm about 15 games behind on GOG and about 5 bundles elsewhere. Those (still) 70 GOG updates dating back to summer on the other hand? Yeah, we'll have to see about those...

Downloaded and installed the freeware C&C games and they're running like a dream.

Vegan barbecue....there's a thought. Must be some amazing items to make it in a market that's primarily meat-based.
Oh man, 70 updates? -laughs- You're right, that IS the part that'll take a while, just to get it all sorted.

I know this is an international thread and I haven't even been into football in years, but...

Dallas just got robbed.
