They then switched to talking about foods, or food combinations folks ate that made others kind of wince.
I have a couple. My husband cannot understand why I actually cook and eat the giblets from chicken or turkey. I even cut up the Turkey giblets into my stuffing. This totally grosses him out.
Another thing he turns his nose up at is a Polish thing called kieska (sp. AKA..Blood sausage. I think it is made from beef parts. My mom used to fry it up in a frying pan..and if that was not enough to make your arteries harden, she would cut up bacon into pieces and cook that into it also.
Sometimes my brother and I would just cut a slice of it and eat it raw.
One of the most nutritious and quickest meals is to bring a tin of baked beans to the boil, and then smash in an egg, stirring continuously. The white of the egg cooks automatically in the tomato sauce, as does the yolk. It's ready when it looks like scrambled eggs gone wrong. It doesn't fill you up immediately, but a couple of hours later, you can go all day without feeling hungry. Healthy too - no oil , and you only use a sausepan. Try it.
