    Somehow eating sea cucumbers, shellfish, and other aquatic creatures is gross?

    Making fun of people’s carnal habits is just flat out ridiculous. White people eat headcheese and blood sausage and blood pudding.

    Fuck outta here.

    Has anyone SEEN how lunch meat is processed?

    Eat a hotdog and tell me eating sea cucumbers is gross. Just… Come on.

          when the cheese is illegal

          Because of European Union food hygiene-health regulations, the cheese has been outlawed, and offenders face heavy fines.[12] However, some Sardinians organized themselves in order to make casu martzu available on the black market, where it may be sold for double the price of an ordinary block of pecorino cheese.[10][8]

          Fuck. That settles it. If white people eat that, maybe they should just not ever say anything.

            In Amerikkka people even eat raw meat in the holidays in the state of wisconsin . Like . they literally eat raw meat and i am not even joking 🤢 .

            “State health department warns that eating ‘tiger meat’ or ‘steak tartare’ risks illnesses from bacteria that thrive in raw meat.”

              Tartare is actually kinda popular not only in Europe in various forms, but it has to be done with some precaution (and A LOT of onion). Murican problem is that their definition of “cooked” is basically identical as european “raw”. I guess it’s refelxive kneejerk from british cooking where there is no such thing as “cooked enough” but still, yuck.

        Yeah. Every culture has cuisine that was based on scarcity. I refuse to make fun of people or think they’re disgusting for eating anything Im unfamiliar with. Everyone has had to resort to things somefimes.

        Lobster and shrimp was technically “never intended” to be eaten. But it was a protein option for the poor and working class.
