rm lichen is truly nasty and has a carb content, it even has a bit of protein.

i am not exaggerating the truly nasty aspects, raw it might be hard to eat enough by nibbling for it to be too indigestible, steeped and boiled it is still horrible but it can at least be chewed, grittily, while you gag rather than swallow was as far as i got.

seeking out a portion from a dead reindeer's tum is a step i have not taken but the vegan version is dreadful.

ps if i have a dead reindeer i don’t want to eat what is in it's tum and there are no reindeer on the menu unless you know a special recipe:lol:

a name with no provenance from a single fire walled source?

what ever it is it is on the menu

it will be well horrid and the odd surprise is fun.

we need to consider drinkies

i have no idea if i could recreate it but squirell's natural yeast fermented banana slurry was pretty spectacular , it may have had a selection of alcohols and assorted light organics but the flavour was overwhelming from 20 metres away, the look and texture and considering the suspected range of micro flora are pretty good as well for adding to the experience.

one drop from 5 gallons was enough to know when it may be appropriate to serve it.
now seems appropriate, a few folk necked a bit of it and survived un harmed but how on either count escapes me, so does why he liked it.

it ain't in yet but it is a contender

Mr Shan claims it's a soggy tasting cross between an dumpling and pasta and that the Germans can keep it....

I love them. They’re German/Swiss. Like long thin gnocchi.

I have not tasted them but Mr Shan was suitably repulsed!

I do like gnocchi.

malibu is a strong candidate for me, even the smell was a step too far. some of the fluorescent alcopop things from the 90's were very vile but i dont know enough to choose a really special one iirc there was one that was cherenkov blue and tasted of old bubble gum and sweeteners that one and anything with artificial " banana " flavour must be in with a chance.

Carbs - Rice Pudding as made by our school cook in the 1950s. It was yellow to orange and put me off rice pudding for life. It makes me queasy just thinking about it. I realize that there are other recipes that are probably not disgusting and life threatening, but I really don't want to know. Henry

portugese bootleg rakia , wow, that could be in with a chance, the balkan versions are a bit variable and some are truly dangerous as well as nasty.

rice pud in almost all manifestations is far too popular.

Can I add Greek raki please. Had some in Crete back in the 90's, it was awful. I can still taste it now.
