I have little to add to this discussion of fermented foods. The natto in Santa Cruz is hard like a granola bar and inoffensive. Did anyone see the recipe in the WSJ over the weekend that calls for half a cup of sugar in “chicken in a pot”? Has to be a misprint, right?
I swallowed live, swimming river shrimp (like goldfish) to prove my willingness to “understand” Japanese people and ate soup with floating eyeballs. I don’t do these kind of crowd pleasing things anymore. Also, don’t make too much of an effort to culturally adjust. Hey, adjust to me. Where’s the Pizza?
“I once ate a live earthworm on a dare. Right down the hatch, swallowed whole while wriggling. Oh then word got out and other people wanted to see me do it so I did it like 5 or 6 more times.”
You’re a hero, jackal. My kid will be thrilled to hear How to Eat a Fried Worm is actually a true story!

Yes, biff. From the Bhagavad Gita.
I’m gonna give it a few more minutes, dona. But in case you were wondering, dibs is wrong. Not the Old Testament.
“Now I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds.”
Believe it was from an Indian source.
I’ve eaten the worm from the bottom of the Tequila bottle many times, while reciting the lines from the ancient text to which Slopey is referring.
what did he say Slopie?
