Food Items that make no sense to you.

Brewers Yeast has lots of B vitamins and is good for you.
I relaly think it is, but the smell and taste put lots of people off, trust me.

Don’t forget beets, the standard hamburger topping in Australia! Even the McDonald’s there put it on your burger.

fat free bacon, perfect example of an oxymoron

If I’m in the mood for bacon, I think I have the intelligence to know what it is I’m eating and to enjoy every heart stopping moment…

they serve a fried egg on hamburgers in france…

Hey, if I had wanted a salad, I would’ve ordered one! :wink:

Sheri

I think it’s the combination of textures that make veggies on hamburgers appeal to me: soft bun, meaty burger, crisp veggies. But, hey, order a salad, too! :slight_smile:

If fish smells bad when it’s raw, you shouldn’t cook it, much less eat it. Fresh fish does not smell.

As for wiggly and rubbery things that you cook before you eat, just what does cooked Jell-O taste like? :wink:

Fresh fish smells bad to me, and I’ve done a lot of fishing in my time.

Only cooked Jell-O is wiggly and rubbery; uncooked Jell-O is powder! :rolleyes:

Yeah, and how about beer? Rotten grain, and yeast piss. Ummmm, Ummmm, puke.

Beer makes wonderful sense! Refreshing and just enough alcohol that you can spend a whole afternoon quaffing before you get tipsy. Goes great with a wide variety of food, too.

Rice cakes.

And here in Europe (possibly the US) they have “Sweetos” - Sweet-flavored Cheetos snacks that come in chocolate and some other flavors…Eww…

Rice cakes yummy yummy; popcorn cakes nasty nasty!

Sweetos>! Eww x2!

Don’t knock it 'till you’ve tried it. Also, don’t knock if if you’ve EVER enjoyed a hotdog, or chorizo, or several other kinds of traditional sausage which generally have MUCH scarier ingredients.

Besides, haggis is tasty. Tastes like kind of a cross between summer sausage and really good meatloaf, with a bit of an oatmeal compliment to it (which makes sense because oats and barley are major ingredients), and no, you don’t eat the haggis casing.

Now, as for the OP, haggis (and sausage, too) makes perfect sense if you look at history. Highland Scots lived a pretty efficient existance, and made the most of everything they had. Why throw away the leftover parts after you’ve butchered a sheep? Especially if you manage to make something that tastes good out of it?

As for those of you who are freaked out by sushi, you can eat sushi without coming within 10 feet of raw fish. Not all sushi is raw, and not all of it involves fish. Besides, it’s another “scary food” that’s quite tasty.
