Slop.

I cant believe I am reading glizzy slander rn

They've also got a specific feast day, Þorrablót, to celebrate those old foods. Nobody eats them anymore because they have refrigeration now and all that entails for freshness, but for centuries they were the food of survival in a harsh climate.

Icelanders fool tourists into eating the putrefied shark because it's funny, but they still have a degree of reverence or respect for the cultural background of that food.

I read the Wikipedia article, and that is certainly horrific. And you can see from the map how their range through much of France is now non existent

But don't forget how america raises and butchers it's chickens. Something most consumers don't think about for a second when they buy their $4.99 whole cooked birds from costco

Do the French think God has a toddler-level object permanence?

Also, why the fuck do you have to eat it like a cartoon cat eating a fish? Just be normal ffs

I have nothing to backup my assertation.

But I maintain, throughout history and culture, slave/peasant food, is often the best. Anyone can make really good fresh baked bread, but it tastes the ingenuity of the proletarian class to turn stale bread into French toast. Anyone can Make fresh delicious rice dishes, but it tastes the ingenuity of the proletarian class to turn old stale cooked rice into Delicious fried rice. For a carist, the only way to screw up a filet mignon is to overcook it, but it takes the kind of ingenuity only poverty can incubate, to turn beef brisket into a succulent, fall off the fork, cut of meat.

Some aristocratic fancy lads might enjoy torturing and eating a songbird or force feeding a goose liquor until you can harvest its enlarged liver. But if you want to fill your belly with really delicious food you don't go to the castle, you go to the courtyard.

Crab and lobster used to be really cheap near the costs where they live before they started being sold to rich people

”Arabians”

i need everybody to stop using analogies.

if Middle Eastern states raised their standards of treating women

Western countries should improve their treatment of Middle Eastern women first:

People complaining about pufferfish probably could not identify safe mushrooms to eat without someone else doing it for them.

Yeah, I'm a hardcore culturialist.

I hate the stigmatization of simple home cooked meals so much. And that's like half of the the struggle food.

Then there is monstrosities that seem kind of distasteful but not exactly cheap to make.

I must confess the term "distinctive urine-like odor" in the Wikipedia article does not appeal to me

If it's not slathered in bbq sauce or ketchup I don't want it! 👴🏻

I've never had it without congee or tofu. I don't feel like it's a food that you can just full send on its own, but it's an amazing flavor enhancer.

I only eat free quarks fuck off with this baryon shit
