Would you ever eat...?

Ah so, it makes sense why things cooked over a campfire have that extra special something something. Wood scents are among those I favor, Cassia especially, which I believe is a type of cinnamon bark.

And if Anise is a type of licorice, I don't particularly dislike black licorice, but I can't eat very many of those at a time either.
I happened on a pack of licorice seeds and thought that to be a particularly novel find, especially because I didn't know where licorice came from, so I bought them. They were black rice-grain like seeds that sprouted like weeds, and produced even more when it went to seed because I didn't know what to do with them. So, I shook some of the seeds into a paper sack and brought them to mom's who scattered them into a corner of her garden, and it wasn't long that more sprang up there also. But, before they went to seed, she pulled them up (the green) and incorporated them into a delicious beef dish. And, if I'd have known how delicious, I'd have made sure that she allow more to go to more seed... because I haven't been able to find them ever since.

Yes if I hold my nose, lol, and it's a great thing to put on for face nutrients. Also, yes to raw fish as in Lox and Bagels w/slice of onion. How about turtle soup, anyone? I can't imagine what that tastes like.

These come very close to resembling giant blueberries... Might these be prepared with a bit of brown sugar and formed into minced Heffalump pie with a crumble crust... ?

I get my humor from my dad. Who named my pet rabbit "Hamburger." I wonder... What ever happened to my little rabbit anyway?

Would you eat a gingerbread house?

Turtle is a protected species many places including Cayman Island, which I visited for a month in the late winter of 1979, where my oldest sister lived for five years... they had a turtle farm there, where I ate turtle
soup. I also had goat stew while I was there, and octopus in a salad, I think. That was a long time ago LOL.

Is it true that turtle is rather chewy?

How to grow licorice
There may be a few plants at any garden center with the word ‘licorice’ in the title. Most of them
are licorice scented and aren’t the medicinal variety with the usable root. They’re usually inedible.

Look for Glycyrrhiza glabra, which is the European variety that has the familiar flavor. There is a licorice
variety that is native to the U.S called Glycyrrhiza lepidota, though it’s much less intense in flavor.

Glycyrrhiza uralensis is also known as Chinese licorice. It has a sweet flavor and multiple medicinal uses. source

I'd bet two weeks' pay (mine) on certain items coming up in this thread.

But I can't say what they are, because that would ruin the bet.

After a quick Google I would have to say yes. It seems delicious.


Would you ever eat crawfish?

It's just a lobster after taxes.

They look creepy but I pray over everything so yeah, I try them, at least once.

Would anybody eat 'Pepper X' the hottest pepper of 2023? Lots of water provided.

I can only handle pickled peppers these days, with a minimal number of seeds
still hanging on. I mean, come on, peppers are used for self-defense!

I don't really remember the turtle soup so much... the goat was a bit dry and stringy
(not much if any fat) and the octopus was cold (salad) and chewy LOL. Of the three
(octopus, goat, and turtle) I think I liked the octopus least. I must confess I simply
love Asian style calamari which is in actual fact cuttlefish and not squid.

I used to eat snails. Ick. Escargot, they say. Try it. You'll like it, they said.

And roll mops. Haha.

The difference between squid and cuttlefish are:

Cuttlefish have internal shells called cuttlebones, while squids have pen-like cartilage.
Cuttlefish have flat, oval bodies, while squids have elongated, rodlike bodies.
Cuttlefish are generally smaller, weigh less, and live shorter lives than squids.
Cuttlefish have W-shaped pupils, while squids have round pupils.
Cuttlefish and squids have different reproductive habits and die after mating.
