Disgusting Food ListThis was originally the result of one of those sleep-deprivation psychoses. You know when you stay up way to late and you start thinking about really stupid stuff. Or when you get bored at work.
This a game we sometimes play at work to gross out staff out side of the culinary department.
The idea here is that you put foods -- that people would otherwise eat -- in nauseating combinations. So ingredients like vomit, toenails, and condensed farts, while indeed disgusting, don't count. I thought about making an exception for haggis, because even though some people like it, most of those people are Scottish.
For example, "deep fried clams with a chocolate hoseradish tartar sauce and a side of eel in a wild cherry aspic smothered in a vanilla chipolte chutney". This would not count. Any five things are probably nasty in combination. The trick is to find two great tastes that taste awful together.
One of these days I'll honor a few foods that are disgusting unto themselves: haggis, vegemite, marmite (Thanks Vipey), and melkfleisch.

Disgusting Food Games
I love my audience.
Which, of course, leads to: "I would like a turkey jerky strudel with powdered sugar and wheat germ, marinated in a melted-chocolate-frozen-yogurt sauce with hash browns and relish on the side. And who can blame me?"
This is a little quip about one of the cool kitchen chicks that I work with quite often:
She used to have sleepovers when she was younger. she would have four or five of our friends over and they would take a big Mason jar half full of milk and set it in the middle of the table. First person would roll a dice. Whoever got the lowest number would have to add anything--anything *at all*--to the jar. The one with the highest roll had to take at least a swallow of it. This would continue until a terribly disgusting concoction came in to being and nobody would drink it or somebody threw up, which ever came first. They once ended up with a milk, pickle juice, relish, cat food, coffee ground, and a-bunch-of-other-stuff cocktail.

So at work we tend to be a little childish. Not that there's anything wrong with that..we i must be going i hear my bed calling my name i know it's not the Mr. K-C because it doesn't sound like snoring...
Until till next time.
