That's nothing. Where do you think casings used for large diameter sausages and cured meats, like summer sausage, come from? Hint: it ain't part of the UPPER intestines of cattle or pigs...

Is this a bad time to bring up cheese?

It's still bee puke... But it's yummy bee puke. Irrational? Yes. Do I care? No. That's the beauty of civilized judgementalism. I can have it both ways and to hell with those who disagree.

"It's still bee puke..."
And not just regurgitated by one bee either.
Each single drop of nectar is passed from bee to bee to bee to bee (etc.) until it finally is loaded into cells, ripened and capped.

Why, no. I love a tasty crusted mass of spoiled ruminant lactation.

Just think where eggs come from. I remember a collage roommate from India seeing Pizza for the first time. He was repelled that we would eat something that looked like something the dog gaged up. Not to worry, we had him eating Pizza, KFC, and the Tequila worm by end of first semester.

.... and that's why Americans are so superior to those barbaric Europeans. We, intrinsically, know where the line is drawn. ;)

This is hard to understand. German food has always been fairly straight forward and, in my opinion, delicious.

What is in the hot dogs? The legal definition is: Lips, tongue, esophagus, and the attached fat not to exceed 20% by weight...

Sardinia's favorite black market treat, begins with a local cheese called Pecorino, which is left out in the sun, so that nearby barn-flies can deposit their larvae into it, until it becomes overpopulated with a swarming mass of maggots. The enzymes "produced" by the maggots cause the cheese to ferment, which, in turn, decomposes the fats, creating a living culinary delight. Who was the first person to see this rotted cheese & think, "hmmm.....I hate to waste a good chunk of cheese, I wonder what that tastes like?"
To: Jaysun
This is hard to understand. That's because you are thinking of real German food, like Brats and Kraut, Weiss and Strudel. Anything new that comes out of Europe now (especially France or Germany) has been tainted by the insane new European craze of relatavistic normalism, where there is nohing that is wrong or weird, only misunderstood.
