Flash-Fried River Crabs

This actually looks pretty good to me.

That salmon mousse and the risotto with sauerkraut don't sound too bad. I could probably handle the flash-fried river crabs, too.

But I wouldn't touch that chocolate stuff. Eeeeuw!

Someone might reply they like kids as long as they're "well done".

No I like mine rare they get tough if you over cook them. LOL

Here we are again, with the same mysterious scenario....a brand new (today) registrant digs up a thread from September of 2001....strange indeed.

Only if the purple coloring came from radioactive isotopes, and it kept the food both warm and sterilized.

Last I heard, Vegemite's banned in the US. The folic acid, iirc.

So, until there's a folate-free formulation, or we wise up and start tossing the food nazis and their minions into,
say Darfur, another thing that makes life worth living will disappear.

I'll try them all, especially if someone else is footing the bill. The only one I was unsure about was the foie gras and chocolate. I think they could both best be used in other dishes. I might have to try the sauerkraut risotto.

I especially liked the looks of #5, the Salmon Tartare with Stilton, Walnuts and Yorkshire Pudding.
