kamo gari; Top of the morning to you once more my friend, I trust you, your smiling wife and the animal contingent of the clan are well.
Thanks for the wonderful food photos again, it looks go colorful and dare I use the term "exotic" to a perogy and sausage specialist such as I am.
Honestly whenever the eldest daughter is able to, she'll drag me to some sort of hole in the wall type of restaurant she's found that she wants me to try. There was a little spot in Victoria where I had a yakinuku dish that was out of this world tasty - and - I impressed her by managing to consume all but the broth with the chopsticks.
For sure I'd give the raw egg dip a whirl too as one never knows about food combinations until an actual sampling.
That said kamo, it's been a long, long road for my taste buds as my formative years consisted of all red meat being cooked way past well done and usually swimming in gravy. Then too because of some of my late father's ongoing gastric issues, there were no onions, garlic or much pepper used at our house either.
Anyways sir thanks again for the visual feast, as always I enjoyed it very much.
Best to you all this weekend.
Dwayne

Let's see you do a Philly Cheese Steak somewhere down the road... I can tackle that no problem. Not using this type cut of meat, though. I must insist, however, you cease referring to a sainted classic Boston type steak and cheese sub as something from Philly. We don't do that whole 'whiz' thing up here with our steak and cheese subs. American cheese tossed on the grill with the meat, onions, sweet peppers (and in some joints, with cooked salami) until it reaches the proper gooey, meaty wonderfulness. I like my sub roll toasted with light mayo. Flave, there's plenty enough for you, but my dogs are suspicious of bald white guys for some reason. Best wear a hat if you come. I don't trust people that don't like dogs. And for good cause! I really don't trust people that dogs don't like.

Have some goose tits brining now for some corned goose. Should be good in about a week. Can't wait. Perusing this thread and getting hungry as usual, I came across this little gem. I never thought about doing that with a goose. Thanks for the tip!

Mighty fine looking cooking and I'll bet it tasted better than it looks.
I've eaten a lot of stuff in a lot of countries, a lot of it good, some of it just there and now and then something I'll pass on next time if courtesy permits.
Back on the origin of this thread, I really like bison and have eaten quite a bit of it. But Philly Chesse steak would not make my list of 100 favorite foods, and I've eaten it several times in Philly at places my friends told me each time had the best cheese steak in town. Just not my thing,

Never fails. . Americans and some Westerners in general won't even blink at eating all kinds of nasty processed foods, along with copious chemical additives, preservatives, meat laden with hormones and antibiotics, things bathed in pesticides, made with binders, fillers, etc. A raw egg though? The HORROR! I can get down with the raw yolk but you lost me at the raw whites scrambled into it. The tofu is plain offensive to my round eye sensibilities...

I make my own ketonic diet lunch soup every day with venison, tabasco, beef bouillon, lentils, and canned fish.
The wife makes the ketonic dinner with Sockeye salmon or grass fed beef.

I'm very open-minded about food and will try anything once. Love seeing the dishes both KG and 99's put up.
Having said that, the only food that I will draw a firm line at (so far) is Balut - half-formed duck eggs in the Philippines.
AFA the tofu naysayers, tofu is a filler, like bread. It takes on the flavour of what you cook it with and just provides extra volume and protein. However, concerns about phytoestrogens would be a reason for a man to not eat too much of it.

The tofu is plain offensive to my round eye sensibilities... Another thing I'll never understand. Tofu is nothing but a bean product. Takes flavors really well, super versatile and dirt cheap. Many, many different types and textures. I'm not a fanatic or even close, but I definitely enjoy it. If you dig Korean food and have a decent place to go to, order the sundubu-jigae. If you don't do enjoy seafood order it with beef or pork. If you don't enjoy it, I'll pay for it.

As far as 'no way in hell am I eating that' foods, balut is probably one. I had the opportunity many times to try them in Manila, but wasn't near drunk enough any of the times, I guess. Everyone else in our party ate them with gusto. I won't eat anything primate and raw brains I will not eat, as well as some dishes that contain uncooked blood. Most anything else I will try at least once.

It looks good but sorry, I can't do that raw fish chit. There was no seafood eaten raw in that meal, but no worries. Different strokes and all that. You've tried eating high grade tuna and other raw seafood properly prepared, and just couldn't choke it down, then?
