Not too bad, eh? I have to credit having coworkers from all over the world and some travel for the number of asterisks on the list.
Before I went veg, I ate some rattlesnake. Meh. And I don't see Rocky Mountain Oysters on this list. Any list that has insects and not Rocky Mountain Oysters is totally bogus.
ReplyDeleteAnd you can call it "black" pudding if you want, but that DOESN'T CHANGE WHAT IT IS.
