The French just can't seem to be satisfied with normal food

Frog legs, snails, birds so decadent you need to hide your shame from God.... Yeah I agree with your assessment.

Not that it makes eating ortolan any better, but the shame thing is made up. It's to inhale the brandy fumes.

Tbf, during the seige of Paris, they were starving and started grabbing anything they could find.

Being French, they would rather starve than not cook whatever they found in the garden or the zoo in a fancy way.

I'm guessing you've never saw those Chinese guys eating whole live octopuses, huh?

[–] Shard@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's more of a Korean delicacy than a chinese one.

...

Not thay the chinese wouldn't enjoy some live octopi...

[–] kalpol@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I've had it. Wasn't live, exactly, no head. just the legs they chopped off were still writhing.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've seen some shit on the internet. Islamists decapitating hostages with a dull knife. A japanese woman being sufocated in the vacum bag. But this. This is truly disturbing.

Weird and horrible. Also does she say 'my head' when she drops the head? Lol

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ackee isn't banned, is it? Just kind of dangerous.

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah he says that in the video.
