I hear pig's ear has quite the following

Shit, I forgot about the ears and eyes. Yes, eyes, having seen my grandmother pluck them for herself as reward for cooking the meal. Then she bit into a slice of Limburger cheese as a chaser while I ground away on the coffee grinder firmly locked in place between my thighs. I remember it like it was just yesterday... make that like it was just a few minutes ago. So vivid! I can even see the peppercorns floating in the pigtail soup, its broth turned into gravy for the fluffed potatoes and Brussels sprout. If there's a heaven, this is what God eats.

A fool and his bitcoin are soon parted.
The grilled cheese donut

I waited awhile to try it because it sounded disgusting but I was wrong, it is delicious

My dad, being originally from Europe, enjoyed French fries dipped in mayonnaise. I tried it and ended up loving them that way.

Today, I picked mushrooms from the backyard and fried them up with onions, garlic and eggs, all scrambled together, then topped the plateful of the concoction with strawberry jam (not jelly, having used such in the pass). Since the meal, I still can't get the song Incense And Peppermints from Strawberry Alarm Clock outta my head.

oh yeah - french fries and a bit of mayo is actually pretty good.
i'm originally from europe as well so can relate haha

jam and eggs? no thanks

When I first moved down South in the mid-80's, the convenience store sold sausage, egg and cheese on biscuit sandwiches. I quickly noticed that the locals where putting grape jelly on their sandwiches, with I saying to myself WTF! Then, it occurred to me that I used to enjoy plain egg omelettes with my grandfather with jelly/jam on top, so I gave it a try. Fuckin' awesome!

Cow tongue.  My euro friends say it's to die for, but I'm not so sure.  The idea of eating that part isn't all that appealing.  In the say way pigs feet and sheep intestines and whatever else.  I think I'll have to pass and stay with what I know is good.

Dad and grandparents on his side used to eat cow tongue, pigs feet and pigs tail. I truly enjoyed the pigs tail, having never tried the other two, nor tried tripe.

Edit: Have tried tripe soup and found okay. Also enjoy scrambled eggs and brains.

Picked up some Pumpkin Butter with Honey at the store today.  If it's as good as Pumpkin Pie, we're in business

Throw some graham crackers in there or something, you gotta have something to simulate the crust of pumpkin pie.
Now I have to go buy pumpkin pie...  Tongue

A meat I can't recall it's correct name.
But it's the testicles of the ox. My friend said it was very good.

Crocodile

I've eaten crocodile. The first time was when I had my friend, a chef at the Hollywood casino in Tunica, MS, order it and place it on the buffet. Many times later in Biloxi, MS, at the Beau Revage, more often than not off its buffet.



Crocodile and alligator taste like chicken breast. Of all exotic foods. Bat soup is my favorite.

How did an aligator/crocodile taste like? I haven't had that one. The only exotic foods I've had are snake, shark, chicken organs (lung, kidney, intestine, brain) and probaby some others that I can't quite remember now but I do like to try a crocodile if given the chance.

1) jelly and bacon sandwich
2) french fries and ice cream (dipping your french fries in ice cream)

The American peanut butter and jelly sandwich !  Jelly is Jam over here and I have never tried that combo.

It's not a thing where I live.

 Jelly is not jam anywhere.  Jam is made from crushed fruit whereas jelly is made from the juice of the fruit.

Philadelphia cream cheese and concord grape jelly sandwiches are awesome.

edit: Oh crap I actually did try them!

Peanut butter and jelly. I've never tried it at all even though many of my friends have always told me to try it because it's good.

And some of my friends from India also recommend me to try those fried spiders. I'll probably try them if I get the chance

Pickles & peanut butter sandwich. I don't intend to try it.  Peanut butter and Nutella on the other hand... yes. Wink

For me, it's a peanut butter and onion sandwich.



I love them both, but have yet tried them together, opting to tackle Limburger cheese first if given a choice.
