    In college:

    Hamburger Helper w/o the hamburger (couldn't afford it)
    Fried frozen pizza (oven didn't work, so I buttered up a frying pan)

    A-Train, I thought everyone liked PB on their waffles. :confused:

    Ughhh..my ex ate those. I had to leave the room. In hindsight, I realize I was living with a canibal.

    I guess; here's a better description of the food: What makes Nyonya food so unique? Nyonya food originates from the minority Chinese community known as the "Peranakans", the descendants of early Chinese in the Straits settlement of Penang, Malacca and Singapore. The ladies are called Nyonyas while the men are called Babas.The Peranakan culture is unique because of mingling and intermarriage with the Malay community.The Nyonya cooking style bears resemblance of Malay cooking. The Nyonya dishes are therefore hot, spicy dishes but cooked and blended with Malay and Chinese ingredients.

    The menu has changed a bit in the past few years; I remember several of the things we got then advised you to "seek advice of the waiter" before ordering, but you can click on and see the menu here:

    why would people consider that gross? a waffle is basically bread, so i fail to see how some people could even consider that weird. i dont know why this frustrates me so much, but it does.

    BTW, i do that too (obviously).

    I forogt to mention, in this month's FHM, they basically show how no part of an animal goes to waste. Has anybody else read this? They forget to mention blood which is sometimes mixed in drinks or cooked down to make blood sausage but they mention most the major body organs.

    They aren't pretty. :)

    My grandfather loved them, and so I ate them with him, ham hocks too. I'm still amazed I see them in almost every grocery store, even in big cities.

    Oh yeah, anytime I have a road trip, I always stop at one of those country stores with the snack bars and pick up some fried gizzards for the road.

    When my mom cooks me fried chicken, I always get the gizzards, since I was a kid.

    Chewy, but awesome.

    Some whitish-yellowish stuff that I popped out of a boil on my ass.

    I've also had hardened yak cheese in Bhutan. The herders dry it out and chew it during their journeys, it takes about 1-2 hours to finish, kind of like an everlasting gobstopper that tastes like old cheese.

    I like squirrels. Squirrels are tasty.

    But this is seriously messed up.

    My uncle said people used to do it all the time back in the day. He said one time he was riding with his neighbor to the store and they passed a rabbit that had been ran over. He said the neighbor turned around scooped it up and took it home and cleaned it.

    Pheasant is probably the best bird to eat. It's not fatty like chicken or greasy like duck. However, I may be biased.

    <-- Grew up on a pheasant hunting farm
