However, I will make recipes available at some point in the coming week.
Anyone see that Red vs. Blue episode where they started with a hummingbird, stuffed that in a pigeon, then a chicken, then a turkey, on and on, a leopard was in there, and finally smashed them all in a 747?
Good times.
Oh, yeah, first. I think.
I’ll take a turbine!
Yeah – I saw that one. The best part of that meal was shoving the turkey into a larger turkey (enter picture of Michael Moore).
“What was the leapord for?”
“Presentation.”
“That’s why we’re gonna deep fry it.”
horn of an oil tanker
“There’s the oil now!”
Termal?
MMmmm…platyturpig. I havnt had that for, like, 5 years. It’s tastee++!
Platyturpig? So someone created something more absurd than a turducken? urk.
Why not cresent rolls? They originally commemorate 1600s Polish victory of breaking the seige of Vienna, Austria by the Islamic Ottoman Empire. The Turks never knew what hit them since the battering rams and catapalts etc were aimed at the walls of the city. Only a few Turks could flee with whatever they could carry. Thousands were killed and thousands of others were captured. Also captured were a huge amount of supplies and food etc. Including tons of brown ground up stuff the Europeans never heard of before called coffee. The POWs showed the Europeans how to make the stuff. A couple days later, the lead Polish general was having his new morning coffee and realized his mom’s dinner roll recipe would go good with it. He suggested it to his personal cook, who in turn shaped them in the shape of cresents. To commemorate their victory over an Islamic enemy. So, croissants are Polish and NOT French.
I’ve heard that bagels originated from that battle also. A Polish baker invented them for the soldiers, a hard crust so they would last longer, and a hole so they could be carried on spears.
BTW- Does anybody know the date the Polish army finally arrived at Vienna?
(Hint: think 2001)
Be sure to avoid the dingleberry turnovers!
How about balut? Do you have a good balut recipe?
DARN YOU SUNBUZZ, I was gonna post the RvB reference.
So, Frank, is this the Thanksgiving Meal Menu for Gitmo or Abu Grahab?
