Nuclear device for the kitchen, yes really

Dig an 8" deep trench, perhaps 2-3" wide around the bamboo. The shoots are shallow, and spread laterally. Such a trench is quite effective at stopping it.

I would pay good money to see you eat raw chicken

Sure it needs to change, but I dont see any likely mechanism by which countries will change by themselves. So, predictably, very few have.

Irradiated, I hope.

I've eaten raw pig liver.

Where does the water come from? Just curious...

School cafeterias have improved in the years since you and I were in school. They hardly ever serve that anymore.

Get your money out and spread your legs....

too).

many countries have got to where they are today by changing themselves, however they have had to, there hasnt been other countries to bail them out, maybe this is the problem or the fact that these changes have taken perhaps many centuries and we are to impatient to wait this long ...

even cliff has more class then you.

Ha, I mostly remember fries and gravy from high school. In University we would walk a few blocks to Chinatown, get a falafel at Moishe's Tel Aviv or whatever.

But this was a few years ago in a longhouse in Borneo, after imbibing a whole lot of homemade Iban rice wine (tuak). Those (erstwhile) headhunters are real party animals.

Of course, the larvae have probably already eaten into my brain.

school.

I remember the fish stick with a wooden Dixie-cup spoon fried into it, under the breading. Maybe it was a promotion to help them sell more ice cream.

I'll bet they have some great party tricks. Did you bring home any shrunken heads?

Ah...was this trip for business or pleasure?

school.

When my kids complain about their school hot lunch (choices of hot entrees, sandwiches, pizza, salads, etc) I try to explain corn chowder and salmon pea wiggle (salmon and peas in a cream sauce over soda crackers).

There was always lot of bread and govt. surplus butter, though.

IMO, you are trying to solve the wrong problem, and will achieve bugger all

Sorry to throw cold water on a laudible intent

Barf. Beaver (the 'catering company' our school used) never inflicted those on us. Just mediocre burgers. Those little cardboard tubs of ice cream with the wooden spoon were not bad, at least to a teen palate.

Never had the opportunity. I bet they would have been really, really expensive. I did ask a customs guy what would be involved importing one. After he rhymed off a whole bunch of problems even with an antique bit of human remains, I said, well I guess it would be easier for everyone if I just stuck it in my pocket and didn't say anthing. He (kind of) agreed. ;-)

That leg was just for laughs.

I should have known. I'd really like a couple of those things to hang on the wall of my office. I'd give them names...

The pig-liver larvae probably were leftover airline snacks. When you fly on an airline that has cannibals for pilots, you have to expect the unexpected.

Everybody is cutting costs these days.

Just read this one.

Food irradiation has been used before. I recall horror stories about 'nearly off' prawns that would otherwise have been rejected being irradiated and then sold.

It killed the bacteria but left the toxins aleady there.

Cobalt 90 was used ( whatever that gives off ) and it needed plenty of lead screening !
