This is one of the funniest and grossest things I’ve ever encountered online: “Steve, Don’t Eat It!”, a blog where a guy named Steve eats and reviews all kinds of disgusting foods. You’ll be surprised a lot of this stuff even exists, but Steve finds it, samples it, and lets us know just how bad (or occasionally good) it was. He is taking culinary bullets for us all. [http://www.thesneeze.com/mt-archives/cat\_steve\_dont\_eat\_it.php](http://www.thesneeze.com/mt-archives/cat_steve_dont_eat_it.php) There’s plenty of salty language and some nasty-looking food pictures, so I recommend you don’t read the site at work. You’ll laugh, wince, and squirm uncomfortably, though! ---

The Sneeze is on my regular list of blogs – I check it out a couple times a week. He does some great interviews, [here](http://www.thesneeze.com/mt-archives/cat_secrets_of_the_fedex_logo.php) is one with the inventor of the Fedex logo, and [here](http://www.thesneeze.com/mt-archives/000408.php) with a MythBuster. ---

Oh lawd, I’m just getting to the prison wine bit. Loller. That is really taking one for the team. 😃 ---

Pretty funny stuff. But why didn’t he call it _Don’t Eat It, Steve_? ---

Wow-- two of his entries reminded me of James Joyce. No, seriously! “What is a home without Plumtree’s Potted Meat? Incomplete. With it – an abode of bliss.” “I had to get him to suck them they were so hard he said it was sweeter and thicker than cows then he wanted to milk me into the tea well he’s beyond everything…” Now if only he’d brave the kidney pie… Hmmm… I wonder if Steve has a heroic surname? 😃 ---

> [@Larry Mudd](#): > > Now if only he’d brave the kidney pie… Hmmm… I wonder if Steve has a heroic surname? 😃 Well I’ve had _steak_ and kidney pie at the King’s Head in Santa Monica, and it wasn’t any big deal. To be frank, I haven’t ordered it again, but that’s mostly because I don’t care for the way the King’s Head serves meat pies. I’ll tell you my surname if you want to know. Actually, no I won’t in the interest of perserving anonymity. ---

> [@Spectre of Pithecanthropus](#): > > Well I’ve had _steak_ and kidney pie at the King’s Head in Santa Monica, and it wasn’t any big deal. This is the bit I was thinking of, which sounds a little like something that Steve would write if he were a bit more genteel: > [@](#): > > …grilled mutton kidneys which gave to his palate a fine tang of faintly scented urine. I’m embarrassed to have misremembered it that badly, after reading _Ulysses_ nine times. Yes, _nine_ times. I likes me some James Joyce. :o ---

> [@Guinastasia](#): > > The entry with prison wine had me rolling. > > And so THAT’S what corn smut is! I’ll pass. Yeah. In Iowa, they wouldn’t even slop pigs with that stuff. And in Mexico, human beings not only eat it, but consider it a delicacy. Whatta world, huh? ---
