[Jowy Atreides]

[Kai Robinson]

You forgot the chicken doner kebab meat

how can you guys eat so much?

a light salad or a yoghurt is dinner enough for me,
and a 6 inch sub when I'm pigging out

It's because you frail little man!!

funny and interesting. He also does some off the wall film reviews as well.

Can't quite compete with Mr Robinson and Holy Sheesh Kebab burger but here's my kebab pizza I did and originally posted on beyond3d.com

I also do a good conversion of the McDonalds Big Tasty. Buy 2 big tasty's and throw away the top bun on each and also most of the sauce and the lettuce. Now you have 2 bottom buns and 2 tasty's. Ram them together to make a new burger and put them in the microwave for 1 minute. I'd suggest Kai do same but using 4 .

I once tried making my own biscuit and gravyin the american style and although the biscuit was fine the gravy was a bit too stodgy I think, I have never eaten the real thing so it is was hard to judge. What the hell are grits ? Sound horrible!

Have to say in the UK we do not have as much choice of burger joints, what we do have do not do as many items and those items we do have are not as good. We have to make do.

I'd love to go to In-N-Out though and see what they taste like. I think half my fascination is the burgers sound like FSB : RAM ratio's, so you can have a 4:5 or a 3:2, 1:1 etc but of course they term it 2x2 etc. I wonder what the optimum ratio of cheese to burger is for an in-n-out? Is it a straight 4x4 or are you better going 4x2 or even 4x3?

That's a computer overclockers mentality, what permutation is best?

Only matched by the towering dump afterwards. I bet that was like a brown Titanic tipping up and then gently slipping down into waters of the bowl.

Andy - TMI, but for your information, actually i have a gut that can reduce anything to its component parts

Think of it like a phase transition coil in a transporter system :p

hmmm grits, lil butter, add some salt and pepper, if thick enough, will stick to your ribs and great for breakfast on a cold morning.

[dengyong]

Grits FTW.

[[XC] 2long4u]

Grits FTL

[IanY]

Just some Asian delicacies.

Let me do the walkthrough, starting with the most begign.

The first picture is snake soup, which shouldn't gross anyone out because its relatively common in the western world.

The second picture is a delicacy. Look carefully. The meat is not roast duck. Its rodents. Roast rats. Don't knock it till you've tried it.

The third picture may raise a bit of ire. That's Fido being served up Thanksgiving style. The picture shows a Vietnamese woman, but the dish is found pretty much across Asia.

The fourth picture is a Thai gourmet fried appetizer platter. Clockwise, we have leeches, beetle bugs, c0ckroaches, lizards and worms.

The fifth picture is distinctly Chinese. Look carefully at the dish. Those are the remnants of a live monkey. Yes, its pretty gross.

[mwin482]

no more buffet for me

[IanY]

Hey, everything tastes great with a little sweet and sour sauce. Everyone chooses between the three main different types of sauces, but nobody needs to know what meat they are consuming .. its all delicious anyway lol

[mwin482]

it would have to be some awesome sauce, and now way at all to tell what kind of meat it is if it is not beef or chicken

[NickS]

Was that a mother ing dog.

EDIT: What the ?

[dengyong]

It's all dead animals (except for the monkey brains).

[IanY]

Uh Huh.. Roast dog...

The chicken that fed you a while ago didn't commit suicide.

I personally have never eaten dog, nor do I care to.

However, this is an international forum, and tolerance and understanding for other cultures (rather than prejudice and hatred) is encouraged. May I remind you that the population of the "dog-eating" cultures outnumber the non-dog-eating cultures by more than a factor of two.

Talk about mixed feelings...................<feeling kinda queasy and hungry @ the same time.

[Zytek_Fan]

Not the kitties!!

[RAW-Raptor22]

All the good in the tread and then Ian decides to make us all puke... :p

Good job IanY!!! </sarcasm>

(j/k... )

[Kai Robinson]

Aaaand to get us all back to something a little more on the normal side of things...



Heinz cream of tomato soup with added smoked ham and some finely grated cheddar cheese....FROM CHEDDAR ITSELF! *look of awe*

[Omastar]

So I guess it's just as morally acceptable to force cats and dogs to live in cramped squalor before you butcher them as it is for giant poultry plants here to marginalize their livestock into horrid living conditions? I see no fewer than 9 cats in that tiny cage, and somehow it's not cruel or unusual to them? Tolerance of other cultures is one thing, but accepting blatant animal cruelty is another. I'm not saying we're any better here with chickens, cattle and pigs, but come on...
