Shoo Fly Pie, Stuffed Pigs Stomach w Sausage and Potatos, Pickled Beef Tongue, Brain Soup - ugh. I love Whoopie Pies! |
Forgot a really disgusting one. My husband eats it for breakfast. They take the leftovers and scraps from butchering, pulvarize it so that it looks like a thick pudding, stick it in a baking pan and bake it. Before you eat it, you take it out of the loaf pan, slice it and fry it. It's called Scrapple. YUCK! It stinks like leftover meat products! |
^^Ewww, I'm glad no one ever tried making traditional Dutch food for me. |
How is it I've heard of scrapple? The pickled tongue and stuffed pig's stomach doesn't sound so bad. Oh yeah I have a new avatar. Let me go put it up. =) |

One of my mom's famous cooking horrors was before she even started cooking that day. She got a fish from the chinese market. You pick it out of the tank, and they gut and prep it for you. The chinese style is to keep the head on, so it was a whole fish still. She goes to get it out of the wrapping, and said she felt the muscles twitch. That freaked her out and she flung the fish across the kitchen and it landed under the dining table. She had to call grandpa to come and get it as she wouldn't touch it after that. Honestly I don't remember if we still had fish for dinner that night. What a baby. :D |
I had my huitlacoche again with a huge green salad with avocado, tomato, a little cheese, carrots and onion. I used mostly salsa and only used some dressing on the last few bites. I am stuffed! and proud of myself! :D |

My mom liked to throw food in the oven or on top of the stove and then she would go sit and read the paper or a book, or watch the news...until the fire alarm would go off. Once when she was frying bratwurst, I told her that smoke was coming from the covered frying pan. When she lifted the lid, flames shot out and she threw the lid, which hit me in the leg and burned me. :eek: No scars, don't worry. One of the reasons I hated meat for so long is that I thought all meat was like the shoe leather that my mother would burn in the oven with little packets of seasoning poured over them. |

I think Susana told me her mom cooks all meat to well done, and asked her why she always overcooks meat, and her mom looked at her like, what do you mean overcooked? :p |

Agua Fresca -- Serves: about 1 quart, 3 to 4 servings Ingredients 1 large cantaloupe or half a watermelon, seeded and diced (about 3 cups) 1 1/2 cups water 2 to 4 tablespoons sugar 2 to 3 limes, juiced Directions This and other similar fruit drinks, which translate literally as "fresh water," are served all over Mexico and they're a cinch to replicate at home. The key is to strain the pulpy fruit to make a clearer liquid. Instead of melon, you could use strawberries, pineapple, or mango -- any fruit that is soft enough to puree. Puree cantaloupe and pour through a fine sieve to eliminate pulp. In a pitcher, mix strained fruit puree with water and season with sugar and lime juice, to taste. |

My mom didn't mean to make meat look like jerky, but that is how it came out. I developed a taste for burned things thanks to mom: burned grilled cheese, burned hot dogs, and so on. |
My mom's cooking was soooooo bland. Can you imagine bland unsalty chinese food? :eek: No wonder my and my lil bro would hide in the closet with the salt shaker and eat salt by the pinchfuls! |
Half a chocolate malt and half a broiled chicken sandwich with lettuce, tomatoe. Hardly ate 2 bites yesterday and am making up for it today. |

My mother would make this green jello mold recipe for family picnics, and we always brought home the whole jello dish and got stuck eating it. My mother also bought things in bulk, way too much than we could eat at any given time. She would hold onto it and use it eventually - years after the expiration date. It would be really embarrasing w company. They would comment something tastes funny about the mayo or the salad dressing. We would look at the bottle, and the expiration date would be 3 years prior to the date. |
