I've not eaten guinea fowl and dislike duck (every other bloody day in Iraq. That and courgettes and squash boiled to a mush) but like grouse. Gamier and in season now.
Generally I avoid chicken like the plague, due to having grown up opposite 9,000 Marks and Spencer broilers and disliking how they were treated. Frozen chicken breasts are £8 at Iceland in the UK. At that price, something's got to give and it's not the farmers' personal welfare. Even worse in Poland and the Middle East; factory farming conditions are cruel.
It's the price per kilo. Turkey is basically biomass. The poor creatures are pumped full of chemicals and are too fat to fúck. They have to be artificially inseminated. With a turkey batter.
It is sad what you say. I pity all those creatures so inhumanely treated by humans and apes. But I can`t give up eating meat - I was born and raised as a meat eater and can`t change my skin.
Lots of supposed herbivores occasionally eat meat... cows, horses, sheep.... baby birds are especially popular opportunistic snack, nature's popcorn....
The amount of tiny insects, microscopic worms in food, dust from decomposed flies/rats and dried dog turds etc that all mammals, vegan or omnivore, consume daily is huge anyway.
Some of the Poles in this picture were eating curry at the Curry Club in Warsaw. That guy sporting the fake gold watch is Lazarus sitting with his lovely ex-wife.
Very crue. They cut the legs off with a sharp curved blade while they're still alive, drop the legs in a bucket and throw the rest of the frog on a heap.
Where I'm from (a supplier of places that eat them) apparently they used scissors.... there was a newspaper story on those in the local frog industry that caused a bit of an uproar....
Several months ago, at a dinner I had been invited to by several Chinese people, I tried one of the dishes and the eyes of those sitting next to me lit up..."Do you know what that is?" they asked, clearly delighted..... "Frogs"
It was... okay.... the Chinese there said the dishes very very authentic and I didn't recognize most of them (conceptually the weirdest were flat noodles that looked like tagliatelle but made of tofu....). Mostly there were bowls with solids suspended in sauce, the chinese plucked out the solids and mostly ignored the sauces.
I took a little time to ponder on this issue and I know why - I need fatty food to quell my hunger which reappears quite soon after a meal, even a fulfilling one. You can`t deny that pork in whatever cooking option or fried chicken/fish or lard sandwiches are full of calories which I crave.
Yes, I know, it is unhealthy so spare me your advice. But I counterbalance it with massive veg and fruit consumption.
Two teachers indulging in their mania for instructing and correcting, even on Wigilia 😂I'm having a quick cup of tea before I tackle the vacuuming. Must have nice clean floors today of all days.
Here, Polish mules coz produced by Polish workers in the Netherlands.
After the Supper we watched old photos as usual to revive the glorious past. This year I chose 2014 among others and found a similar dish with mules from Polish workers in the Netherlands but more advanced coz I had added other seafood in crispy fried style.
A few days before Christmas I give up meat and depend on seafood.
We finished the Supper at 6 pm during which I stuffed myself with red borsch and dumplings, żurek with mushroom and potatoes, 3 pieces of fried carp marinated in beer. It was enough for a few hours until I got hungry again. I need to have a little snack before turning in. Fortunately, it is past midnight so the fast no longer applies and I can eat my fave stuff aka Polish sausage at last. My wife made leek salad for tomorrow but I am taking advantage of it now.
