An Offal Idea?
Searches are up for ”maggot cheese”, after Newsweek has published a list of gourmet foods, which are restricted or considered “socially unpalatable” in the US.

  • while i think that things like maggot cheese, might not be great, haggis and especially foie gras are great foods, as a foodie and professionally trained chef it makes me a little sick to think that i can;t get foie soon.

    Why are Americans so afraid of anything thats a little different

  • Foie gras sounds sick in the manner that the ducks are force-fed to be fattened up. I have the same opinion when it comes to veal, which is made from what are basically baby cows. Probably not baby cows, but young cows.

    Why do we do it? Because it supposedly tastes better. What's wrong with normal steak? Do we have to slaughter a young cow or force-feed a duck simply to satisfy the pallete (sp?) of some "gormet" fellow? It's the same thing with caviar, fish eggs, basically. The fish the eggs come from are, from what I heard, nearly extinct, or have been nearly extinct at some point.

    It's mostly rich people that can afford foie gras or veal at a fancy 5-star restaurant.
