Peaceless Sacrifice

Oh, vegemite... >____<;;;
If you make it right though, vegemite isn't too bad. Like, with a little bit of cheese on bread - I think it's called tiger toast - it's bearable. ...Not something I'd like everyday but...

If I am not mistaken, black pudding is some sort of jello with bits of animal in it. Don't quote me on that though.

Sorry if I offend, but EW! That sounds so... HORRID. People like stuff like that?

Okay, I googled it. Apparently I was gravely misinformed. It's a kind of sausage.
However, you make it by boiling blood, bread, barely and oats until the mix is solid and then frying it.
So, that doesn't sound very good anyways...

EW AGAIN. Boiling blood, that's just... Excuse me while I go vomit.

Yeah, sorry... I probably shouldn't have posted the description.
Some people must like to eat it, but it is beyond me why.

Have you every seen Bizarre Foods on the Travel Channel? I WILL TELL YOU ANYWAY. Normally, he eats bugs and random organs, but there was one episode that I honestly wanted to vomit. They ate coagulated blood from an aluminum pan like it was freaking jello.

I did have proper fish and chips in Australia. It was amazing. @___@ The chips in Britain are proabably really good too.

Though, I have heard that you British eat a lot of gross things... like Black Pudding... is it true? (I mean, I don't think it is but...)

Black puddings disgusting and actually incredibly incredibly rare, I barely know anybody thats ever tried it nevermind actually liking it, bleh. I am interested to hear of these other gross foods we have? We live off chips lolz. I'm trying to think of a british equivalent to PB&J sandwiches, it's tricky but I know theres got to be something that we eat alot of that americans don't, and something hopeful not gross.

I've heard eating organs is more common in England than the states. I can't think of anything else at the moment. I need to investigate.

Eating organs? what like hearts and lungs eww no, I've never had any organs and I don't know anybody that has, we have steak and chicken and sausage and pork and things like that, but if people have organs here it's probably the really old people remembering the war and the rationing lolz.

LOL. That seems likely. What foods do you know of that you'd never think of eating? I'm talking super gross stuff. LOL, I love this topic.

Oh, god. D: Why? Or, at least, I hope they are paying him a lot.

Yeah, I am not sure why, but whenever somebody says 'British' the first stereotype that comes up is tea, but the second is you guys eating something very gross, such as black pudding... everyone knows it's false, but I still thought I'd ask you, mostly out of curiosity.

Besides from black pudding I think 'Fish head pie' is another one.

erm, raw meats? I'm not sure, I can't really think of any at the moment.

He ENJOYS it, but it's not because it's gross. He does it to experience other cultures.

Raw meats is common here too, at least in my family. My mom and aunt made a prime rib for Christmas dinner and it was so rare it was still mooing. If they weren't feeding others, I'm sure it would have been raw. Thankfully, my family acknowledges my finicky eating and made me chicken.

@Enrai- Eww no way! (to the fish head pies), we don't even have fish pies, we don't even eat fish heads either. Meat and potato pies, we have alot of them ^_^. Tea, yes, hell yes. Like the rain it's a stereotype thats very true. Except people forget Coffee, we drink as much coffee as we do Tea.

@nori- Oh we don't have it actually completly raw, everyone cooks it at least a little bit but some are soaking in blood, makes me heave just thinking about it.

Oh, that killed me.
Everything cooked at my house is well to well done. But, I really like burnt food personally.

Okay, well, the next time someone says British food is gross I will tell them they are incorrect! I am glad to be enlightened. xD

I'm right there with you two with the blood dripping meat. -Gags.- But then again, I'd rather eat dirt than red meat.


It seems we have similar foods, just call it different names. I know there are tons of foods here that you've never had and vise verse, like peanut butter and jelly, I just can't really think of any. Oh! I know it's a pretty simple item, but do you eat grilled cheese sandwiches?

Ah ~ Grilled cheese sandwiches... You really can't go wrong with them. :3
I eat more grilled cheese then peanut butter and jelly, because I really don't eat PB&J very often.

Do either of you put bananas and peanut butter on your toast?

I LOVE grilled cheese too, but I love cheese period.

I just eat peanut butter sandwiches. I'm not a fan of jelly. That's how picky I am. LOL. I haven't tried it with bananas, but I have thought about it because I like peanut butter and banana smoothies. Soooo yummie. If I do try it, I probably won't toast it. I prefer my bread soft.

Ooo I havn't actually tried that, I might tho Enrai, I like chocolate spread on toast mmm, hmm grilled cheese, err well we have cheese toasties? they're like toasted sandwiches, you make a cheese sandwich (if you want to have a toastie most people use cheese slices rather than proper cheese) then you put it into a toastie thingy (not a toaster) see the toastie thingy is like one of those lean mean grilling machine things but it has triangle shapes that squish your sandwich together so that the two halves join together near the crusts so it's more solid, that way the melted cheese isn't falling down your face, anyway then the toastie thingy toasts your sandwich. We have cheese on toast as well, and people sometimes grill them but thats not really a sandwich. (sorry for the late reply)

I know this is really, really, really, (+10000 reallys) late, but my Dad and Mum like Black Pudding. I see it and I gag. >_> I want to know how people eat it.

I don't even know what that is but it doesn't sound very appealing the way that you're describing it. Should I avoid it if I get the chance?

Yes.
-pointless post, but okay.-

Theres a discription of it a couple of pages back I think. Avoid that too -_- *bleh* black puddin = gross

I don't see how anyone can eat it, tbh. D:

I totally agree. y'know it feels like I'm playing whack a mole with these posts tonight ^_^
