Gross British Food

In answer to Comments made, (!) I will attempt tyo explain this strange above-mentioned phenomenom...

Black Pudding:

This is completely gross. It belongs to that strange collection of "food" called "offal", (Basically, all the yucky leftover bits from a dead cow), which includes heart, lungs, kidney, liver, etc , etc.

Actual blood is mashed together into a paste and put into a sausage-type skin and cooked till it is black. Sometimes it's flat like a pancake, but nearly always it has white flecks in it, which look wierd. (possible white blood cells?? *shrugs*)

Anyway, it's leftover body parts of a cow but not the muscle/meat stuff basically.

Really really gross.

Not to be called a hypocrite, I have eaten it once, and found if you eat it quickly with lot's of ketchup, you hardly notice the strange coppery taste of cooked blood in your mouth...

bleuuurrgggh...

*feels sick now*

I will write again when I think up of more strange british "food"...

Mmmmmmmm... *dreams* gimme a large Hot Chicken Tikka Masala with a Naan Bread and Poppadom and Pilau Rice and extra jalapenos on the side and mango Chutney anyday.... mmmmmmmmmmmm.....

Dammit, I'm hungry now.
