Food
I saw this at lunch today on the menu If it runs, walks, squirms, hops, wiggles or moves in any way... chances are you can find it on a plate out here. ' PS I never discovered what a "pot" was, or why a steamed frog would need it.
Ben, I think now is the time to take a leaf out of Rob's book and become veggie. It's a great excuse for not having to eat the sheeps' eyeballs and monkey brains!
Hey! If you get steamed you need a pot! We are the odd ones out not eating creepy-crawlies. I bet I'm a celebrity... didn't go down (pun intended!) so well in HK.
well im pretty sure that somewhere down the line so far i have eaten dog... the worst thing is that on the way from our flat you go past the markets with the live frogs jumping at you from buckets etc, so you get to see them before they end up on a plate. They even eat turtle out here, just like the ones we used to have as pets at home... :( im not quite a veggie yet. But in the flat im slowly realizing it may becomea policy just because its easier for us to share food! bx
We'll have to send you out some of Dave's recipes, he does a wicked lentil lasagne. And rumour has it Rob can do a green Thai curry just like papa's (courtesy of the co-op).
