Re: Food fussiness


I love pickled beets, make them frequently, also brussels sprouts (tonight at dinner); do hate liver and tapioca. Lamb only in shish kebab. Never had pickled walnuts nor whelks. Adore mussels however.

Re: Food fussiness


The old story of 'One man's meat is another man's poison' is so true, isn't it?
I love tapioca, though I haven't had it for years and years - decades more like - and as for not liking roast lamb ......... words fail me!
I haven't tried a whelk, and must say i don't particularly fancy them But I do like watching the French with their bowls of bulots (circumflex on the u but I can't be bothered to find it) and thick garlic mayonnaise. They dip the de-shelled cadaver into the mayo and scoop up a dollop, put the whole into their mouth and chew

Re: Food fussiness


Aha, very informative...if I ever see whelks on the menu I'll know now not to try them..

May I tell a story about roast lamb? Years ago, my Mom fixed leg of lamb for Sunday dinner for the first time even though she knew Dad didn't like it.He looked at it, said "Gertrude, what is that?" When she responded roast lamb, he didn't say a word, got up, went to the closet, got his hat and coat and went down to Georgetown for dinner. Needless to say we never had it again.....

Re: Food fussiness


Oh dear! Trouble with me is that I would like to like it, it's the smell that puts me off. Like the mint sauce though!
