Don't we eat weird things?

Shrimp and escargot Ugly and delicious.

Eggs. Who thought something from a birds hind end would be good

I have often found cheese strainers in Roman excavations. They exist since the Chalcholitic in Europe (circa 2500 BC). I wonder who had first the idea to produce cottage cheese ? It was a revolution at the time.

I feel like a lot of the foods we eat today may have come from necessity. I bet the first time someone caught a lobster (instead of a fish) they thought "Well, I can't go home without food for my family, so this crustacean will have to do". Things like sour cream and cottage cheese were probably happy accidents. Buttermilk was probably brought about by the need to not waste anything... It is interesting, however, to think of all the combinations we eat today. I am sure our ancestors would look at us and think "Why would you eat flaming hot cheetos?"

Vince doesn't like cheese and always tells people they wouldn't either if they had seen how it is made. He then gives this great spiel about how they take sour milk blah blah.

Cottage cheese is manmade but lobster is a shellfish and man has always eaten shellfish.

I am beginning to think that I should give up meat, not that I eat lots of it, but when I see all those meat processing plants, it turns me off.

Well, I don't know how people start out eating most foods, but I do know about lobsters. It seems that in early colonial times, lobsters were in so abundance that they considered them the garbage of the ocean. When food was scarce and money was tight in the early days of our country, they couldn't afford to feed prisoners meals, so they started giving them lobster. Can you imagine that early prisoners got served lobster three meals a day? They were living like kings and didn't even know it! haha

Omg.. I'm a vegetarian and can't relate to anyone eating anything wierrd

Those wont compare to exotic delicacies offered in our country like balut which i really like to eat but in moderation due to high cholesterol
