I'm not a squeamish person. My first eight weeks of cooking school were spent in a butchery class with a sadistic British butcher who kept feeding us organ meats he'd quickly seared over a bunsen burner. I mean, like barely warmed kidney and such. Anyway, I'm not one of those girly-girls who needs to wear rubber gloves when she handles raw chicken (you know who you are), but I came upon this list of the world's most vile and evil foods and it kind of skeeved me out. Could these be for real? I know about drunken prawns, and I've committed lobster murder myself, but the eating of currently-living or very-recently-like-as-in-seconds-ago-living creatures seems like a strange fetish that we should strongly discourage.
Who's with me? Say it loud and proud, NO MORE EATING OF LIVE DONKEY FLESH.
