MEALS FROM BEYOND THE PALE


Man does not live by bread alone. That old axiom takes on an even more emphatic meaning when you're ordering your meals "beyond the pale." The following are some examples of just how bizarre the simple practice of eating dinner can be...


JELLIED TURKEY...WITH HARD-BOLED EGG ACCENTS. FROM A 1950S "GOOD HOUSEKEEPING" COOKBOOK.


SPAGHETTI INSERTED INTO...YUCK...BOILED HOT DOGS. FROM THE SAME COOKBOOK.


THE ULTIMATE CHEESEBURGER, MADE BY ONE OF MCDONALD'S VERY OWN CHEF. BUT...WHY?


SUSHI SERVED ON THE BODY OF A NAKED WOMAN. THE PRACTICE HAS JUST BEEN OUTLAWED IN CHINA. BUT YOU CAN STILL VISIT THE GREAT WALL...


HOT RAT SOUP...FROM http://www.worth1000.com/contests/28118/fire-the-chef-4


“INAGO NO TSUKUDANI"...OR, IN OTHER WORDS, JAPANESE GRASSHOPPERS...SERVED WITH A LOVELY, SWEETENED SOY SAUCE SIMMERED WITH MIRIN.


AND WHAT DO YOU WASH IT ALL DOWN WITH? HOW ABOUT A NICE GLASS OF SNAKE WINE...FROM VIET NAM?

That's it for now...from beyond the pale.
