Mmm... me too. In fact I just love food in general. LOL

[Mike (the Paladin)]

....you love pictures of food???? I don't know. It's like when i was a kid and someone had "toy food". You can't eat it... What's the point?

^^ This. lol.

I don't mind pictures on recipe or food blog sites as those are supposed to look yummy. But, I don't care what the average person is having for lunch or dinner. It's obnoxious that I need to sit there and wait for you (general you) to photograph the food before I can eat it. I want to dig in!

I don't take pictures of MY food...that is in my belly. But I will look a pics of your food, lol.

[Becky]

Oh, yeah... I don't take pics of my food unless it's something that I'm especially proud of making - like a full on holiday meal or a really pretty cake or something.

Turkey club for lunch? Nah.

^This I understand as I've done it myself. I don't post it anywhere though. I guess if I had an IG account or cared about my FB I could put it there, but yeah, I mean people who take pictures of every meal. It's silly. You're at freaking Chile's or Applebee's for FFS. lol.

Oh I'd never photograph someone else's food. You should get to dig in right away. But I love to post photos my food Yelp and I'll spend a lot of time scrolling through the photos when I'm considering going to a new place (or revisiting an old one.

[Becky]

Leslie, that's good though! If you're reviewing a place, I think you should post pics, for sure!

I've taken pictures of my sushi plates - 'cause they're pretty. :P

[Mike (the Paladin)]

Then there's haggis...

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

I plan on trying haggis when we go to Scotland in September.

Read if you dare!

[DoodlePanda]

I wouldn't take picture of haggis... its not exactly pretty... It doesn't taste too bad I guess, but i can't stop thinking of what I'm eating which put me off when I tried it...
saying that I'm ok with eating black pudding, go figure. ..

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

I dared.

I knew that haggis was pretty much the leftover sheep parts, just like scrapple is pretty much the leftover pig parts... Still plan on trying it at least once, though.

Not a fan of black pudding. Hope the haggis is tastier.

[Becky]

Ugh. Scrapple is so gross. People around here love it. :x

I looooove black pudding :)

[Mike (the Paladin)]

Ever hear of "souse" (the food)?

[Leland]

In Seattle I keep seeing "Tripe" on menus and I just keep thinking...."OH GOD! DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS?"

I did try beef tongue recently though. It was more like a very large cat tongue than I was comfortable with.

[Leland]

Mike (the Paladin) wrote: "Ever hear of "souse" (the food)?"

pickled... o_O

I can do scrapple. I prefer bacon with my eggs, though.

[Beth]

I've never heard of scrapple. I've always wanted to try authentic haggis. I tried cow tongue at a friend's wedding one time. It was really good. I have a tongue in the freezer now, so I can try making it. My grandpa makes jellied pig's feet/hocks to put on toast for breakfast. It's really good.

[Beth]

[colleen the convivial curmudgeon, Not a book hipster!]

Oof.

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

lol

When I visited my hubby's cousin she made rice & beans with pig tails. I was kinda grossed out when she was talking about it but it was freaking delicious and now I want to make some.

[Beth]

That does sound good.

"Souse" is something like "head cheese". In the country it was said that when it was time to "kill hogs" you "used everything but the squeal". Souse is small bits of "meat" (anything left over) held together by gelatin or a meat jelly. Brain, organs, eyes, ears etc. were used. It was usually molded into some kind of loaf so it could be sliced when set.

Souse is gross looking. My aunt used to try to get me to eat it but I was always grossed out.

And never touched pickled pig feet or pickled eggs.

But we once gave our dogs boiled pigs ear.

[Becky]

I totally read that last line as "But we once had dogs boiled pig ear."

Sounds... tasty.

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

lol

It was funny looking, too. The ear barely has any meat on it but the dogs were ecstatic.

[Mike (the Paladin)]

"Country folks" had to "make do" a lot. My mom's dad was a prison guard and the family also ran a farm. Back then family farms were different. They had dairy cows and sold milk to a dairy, they raised tobacco, had hens for eggs. They raised two kinds of corn sweet corn for food and field corn for feed and meal. They also had the "regular garden" for vegetables. And of course they had hogs. Hogs ate anything and provided meat in the fall.

Life was different.

[Beth]

Sounds like my life. We trade for milk, fruit, and veggies. The guy that does our fields trades us a cow to butcher for a portion of our corn or hay. We keep our own garden and orchard and have our own chickens for eggs and meat. We used to have a hog, but it was a pet and our kitchen waste disposal.

[MrsJoseph *grouchy*, Bad Girls Deadlift]

We used to do a lot of those things when the older people in my family were still healthy (on my mom's side):

We grew a lot of fruits and veggies (nothing is as delicious as picking your own breakfast straight from the tree in the spring/summer).

The ones (fruits & Veggies) we didn't grow we traded for.
We kept chickens for eggs.
We tried a goat for milk but that didn't work. And no one wanted to keep cows.
The only food items we purchased were grains/flours and meat (didn't want to grow & butcher)


My grandma used to make the most delicious homemade bread. Or she would turn them into rolls. Man, those rolls could cause a fight!

I like the pic, though.

WOW.

Sooooo much a set up, though. I hope this guy doesn't get fired.

[Mike (the Paladin)]

I'd be more concerned about charges from destroying the mailbox and throwing the mail into the garbage truck...

True. That's a federal offense. You aren't even supposed to open other people's mail boxes (to put in flyers, etc)

But it was a setup. How did the guy just so happen to have a camera there to tape this?

[Mike (the Paladin)]

I know. The only way would be some kind of security camera on the mailbox. Hopefully it's not a "real" mailbox. But then you'd think the guy would notice as he's on a route.

MrsJoseph wrote: "But it was a setup. How did the guy just so happen to have a camera there to tape this? "

Not necessarily... When we were at our old place, we had a security camera aimed at the street because we had someone mess with our shit once. It showed our parking spot, half the street, and where our trashcans go. Full color, nightvision, and automatically uploaded to our home server. It cost us $30 and was installed in one day.

That's a good point. I wouldn't have thought of that.

[Beth]

I'd seen it before. Apparently, the street had been making complaints for a while, so this person videotaped throughout the day for proof.

[Leland]

And that this is an example of workplace violence is also concerning. Unless it's all a put-on. Which apparently it's not.

If something sticks in our cans, our trash guys will leave it for us to figure out. No muss no fuss. I can't really argue with that if I'm the one that packed it too tight.
