Apparently grilled beaver tail is still a thing. Very fatty, and prized by mountain men back in the day.

I'm a BIG fan of marzipan, but that isn't originally a Brit foodstuff.

It's not being "squeamish", it's knowing what I'd rather not try to eat. We all have our own preferences.

I don’t like marzipan-and the black pudding doesn’t sound appetizing-but I’d choose any of those banquet items over a fast food burger, KFC, mac-and-cheese, etc-at least the banquet food is organic, unprocessed and fresh-just add some steamed veggies and/or a salad and I’ll be there...

I like cookbooks, and have several-one was a present from my mom-”Cooking Through the Ages”-it has recipes back to the time of the Roman Empire-like honeyed dormice-gah! Some of the food prep instructions are interesting, too-like take chickens and ram them together, hew them to gobbets, etc...

Yes and weve become so much more civilized. We only disembowel preborn babies now. Thanks for the history lesson.
