Davey Boy 2.0 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 well nevermind then.One day at the end of class little Billy"s teacher has the class go home and think of story and then conclude the moral of that story.... The following day the teacher asks for the first volunteer to tell their story and little Suzy raises her hand... "my dad owns a farm and every Sunday we load the chicken eggs on the truck and drive into town to sell them at the market... well one Sunday we hit a big bump and all the eggs flew out of the basket and onto the road" ... teacher asks for the moral of the story... Suzy replies, "don't keep all your eggs in one basket" Next is little Lucy.... "well my dad owns a farm too and every weekend we take the chicken eggs and put them in the incubator" .... "last weekend only 8 of the 12 eggs hatched"....Teacher asks for the moral of the story.... Lucy replies "don't count your eggs before they're hatched" Last is little Billy.... "My dad fought in the Vietnam war, his plane was shot down over enemy territory".... "he jumped out before it crashed with only a case of beer, a machine gun and a machete".... "on the way down he drank the case of beer".... "unfortunately he landed right in the middle of 100 enemy soldiers".... "he shot 70 with his machine gun, but ran out of bullets, so he pulled out his machete and killed 20 more, but the blade on his machete broke, so he killed the last ten with his bare hands" Teacher looks in shock at Billy and asks if there is possibly any moral to his story.... Billy replies, "don't fuck with my dad when he's been drinking" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.B.E Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Tripe. My Dad and my Grandfather love this stuff. Ive tried it but didnt much care for it. Its the lining of a cows stomach. Maybe we could wrap it around your pickled herring Davey and deep fry it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms.Huxtable Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Disgusting stuff to me is just the processed convenience food that my parents eat. I like pickled herring, I like tripe and I like liver....Put cheese whiz or TV dinners in front of me though and I could puke. Bagged iceberg lettuce as well, I mean come on mixed greens is right beside it and the same price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradm Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 (edited) My parents used to make batches of a mean chili sauce; it was sort of a semi-sweet/semi-hot chutney, with onions and apples and pears and things in it (some might call it a relish). They even did the canning technique where you fill the top of the jar with wax just before you put the top on the jar, so it'll keep on the shelf in the back room for months. In a similar vein, my Mom used to make great apple sauce. She started with raw apples, which were stewed down, skins and all if I remember correctly, then pressed through then frozen in small single-serving margarine containers. That, with plain (unsweetened) cinammon is a key dessert of my childhood. Aloha, Brad Edited November 7, 2008 by Guest Add pears to list of chili sauce ingredients.

Jaimoe Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Liver and wild duck (nothing wrong with duck, but I'm not a hunter).On a sad note, I'll never be able to make my dad's delicious spaghetti sauce and meatballs since he took the recipe with him when he passed on.

Patchoulia Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 My dad fed me a lot of gross things (probably contributed to my becoming vegetarian). He was a very old school, meat 'n' potatoes guy, lived through the depression etc so there were a lot of odd repugnant meals in the regular rotation.The worst was (and I am gagging just thinking about it) pork hocks. As a kid, I never questioned what exactly a "hock" was..probably my subconscious trying to protect me from the revolting reality. Ick. Pork hocks & sauerkraut. I still like sauerkraut, though.

phishtaper Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 anyone's folks ever make them sit at the dinner table until they finished their plate ... mine did. by the time I was 10, I knew the ivy patterns in the kitchen wallpaper like the back of my hand. only benefit was missing school for days on end. always late to the table, my sister and I used seize the opportunity to lift my dad's mashed potatoes and slide under our yucky peas when mom wasn't looking. for years, he thot she served it that way.

Ms.Huxtable Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 My grandmother used to make me sit at the table until the plate was cleared. I was always the last one at the table while everyone else was out playing. I recall sitting there for up to an hour after everyone had been allowed to leave.I seriously think I'm damaged because of that. I still clear my plate to this very day even if the portion sizes are way too big and I was full a long time ago.The guilt I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaybone Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 My parents are from Nfld and grew up eating canned vegetables. Canned peas are truly gross.I like frozen peas and love fresh peas, but canned peas are nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaggyBalls Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 My mom makes the best beef liver.She soaks it in milk (which i found out later, reacts with the liver and takes a lot of edge off of it...she was a bit suprised to find out...)then dusts it in flourthen fries it in butter (with a bit of oil to prevent burning)then bakes it in the oven to keep it crisp.It's awesome...but i doubt i'll ever cook it.I think that many people have had terrible liver experiences cause it takes a special knack to cook properly, and the fact that many people eat pork liver...which is grody (sp?)It's an amazing thing to find a way to like...but horrible to realize that I know the difference.ew.

daisymelan Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I will never, ever, make cabbage rolls. YUCK. Nor will I make meatloaf or well done steak. Luckily, mom never liked liver. Sadly, I do not cook partridge or fish like mom did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
