Not Again.

Nutritious
A Swiss restaurand n the exclsive Winterthur resort introduced recently a new menu, which has a list of special disheds containing at least 75% of human breast milk. These specialities contain such meals as meat stew and soup.
So, if you think you “quit the habit” too hastly, now is your chance to get back the lost “nutritions”

drink not
They say in Japan, one should not forget to try out the Frog sashimi and the fresh, still beating heart of a frog. Flushed down with a refreshing glass of lizard sake. How else?
Oeuf what?
Do you fancy eggs? Many (except my student Xavier who gets a severe stomach ache as soon as the yolk gets inside) - just prefer to eat them before the embryo inside has a peck an feathers. The people in Cambodia apparently think differently, as a duck-egg-delicacy called balut is a great treat loved by the locals. The trick of preparing balut is to let the embryo inside the egg to develop until the bird inside is nearly ready to see the daylight. When the embryo inside is right, the egg is boiled and served with a pinch of salt on top.
The Cambodian locals enjoy their Balut normally as a night time snack, accompanied with a cold beer.

What Color??
I have not tasted Absinthe, and many say it tastes pretty much and few say that it taste what rat poison would taste like. Then again, there’s always the possibility of “cool hallicinations”, when consumed in substancial abounts. A private candy company lollyphile has come up with an idea to manufacture lollipops out of absinthe. “made with real (and completely legal!) absinthe”

Ashok Can you here me?
Here’s yet another odd consumable, cocktails without spirit. These frog cocktail are made by skinning live Telmatobius frogs and droppin them into a blender with other ingredients. This health-drink, which is said to have aphrodisiac properties, is mighty popular at the Andes.
The frogs used for the cocktail are endangered species as well, and therefore the local officials are trying to stop the tradition, with little success so far.
What would be the most discusting substance you could imagine flavouring your wine with? Well, I’m sure baby mice would not come too far off?
Baby mice wine is a traditional Korean health drink, which is brewed by drowning alive baby mice, maximum three days old, in rice moonshine and letting them to ferment in the bottle for about a year. According to local Korean belief, mouse wine is a cure to just about any illness imaginable; including asthma and liver problems among others. my bro Ashok who is in Korea doesn’t have any asthma or liver problem
If mice wine does not do the trick for you, do not forget to try out the Cobra Schnapps Source: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/295820/from_the_alcoholic_xfiles_korean_baby.html
