Fungus has no place on a meal, for any reason, ever. Gross.
It’s a simple statement of fact that if you have a conversation with me that goes long enough eventually we will always come around to the topic of cannibalism. I’m not sure if this is me channeling my inner zombie or simply another aspect of my deeply deviant personality.
Perhaps I’m just simply amused at the reaction to topic brings out in others.
I love giving panels on zombie preparedness especially when the topic comes to what are you going to do for food. I submit to you that cannibalism is a perfectly reasonable option when supplies are running low.
Sure you may have some ethical and moral qualms to devouring your fellow zombie apocalypse survivor, but think about it. We are all just protein when it comes down to it.
Now here’s something else to think about. Your average kid these days spends the majority of his time playing video games, getting very little exercise, and marinating themselves in Mt. Dew and Dorritos. They are just like Veal and therefore very likely to be delicious.
See my wife hates it when I bring this subject up… especially when I start eying the kids and talking about barbeque.
Personally, I’d rather eat long pork than dog or cat. Carnivores don’t taste as good as omnivores and herbivores. Tough, and gamey in a bad way (unlike venison, which is gamey in a good way). Heck, even parrots are better than cat, no matter what they serve in Hong Kong. And humans are easier to trap.
Oh, and I have to agree with you on the fungus thing. If I wanted to eat something that tastes like dirt, I’d eat a beet.
If you think mushrooms taste like dirt, then it isn’t mushrooms that you’re eating; it’s dirt.
Mushrooms don’t taste anything like dirt.
Interesting, have never eaten a fungi that tasted like dirty, most do not have any taste at all, also fungi are important without them there wouldn’t be beer or bread, now about cannibalism, since we are so alike to pigs, i dare say we also might taste alike too, so cannibalism FTW, if necessary.
Yeast isn’t a fungus; it’s a class of organism with attributes of both fungi and animals, called “Yeasts”
Mushrooms are some of the finer things in life, whether they be dietary or pharmacological. Fungus is the future of Food for the world, whether you like it or not.
What would you rather have? A slimy, disgusting, tasteless Tofu burger or a wonderful, warm, flavourful Portabello burger? The latter is much healthier for you, and it tastes much better.
Since I have had both a Tofu burger and a Portabello burger I have to throw my hat in with the Portabello.
But neither is as good as a soylent green burger… yum yum.
Having tried both, I’ll take the tofu, thank you. Actually, given the choice, I’d probably just eat the bun and go hunt up something else. But if you get down off the soapbox, you can have my share of the fungus.
Only if you order a double-cheese, triple mushroom pizza
There is such a pizza? I think I just got a little sick. Triple mushroom?! The horror.
