+ Yep, grab some mystery squirrel and a cab I reckon. Feb 14, 2011
strev I can relate — albeit, not about blood, per se. Two years ago, I was visiting the UK (Bath) and I'm sure I was served squirrel. I asked the server at least six times what the "game stew" was and he skillfully avoided telling me with some rather creative excuses. The next day, I read about how squirrel meat was being adopted by some adventurous chefs.
The stew was good. Feb 13, 2011
hernesheir I ate moronga, blood sausage, a few times in central Mexico - sliced and mixed with black beans and plenty of dried red hot chili peppers and other herbs. I was surprised at how much I didn't dislike the dish - one of those "eat it or insult the cook" situations foreign travelers encounter. Feb 13, 2011
strev Thankfully, no. ;)
Edit: Of course! Blood pudding!
So I revise my comment to "Unfortunately, yes" Feb 13, 2011

bilby I lived with a Kashmiri family for about 2 weeks when I first moved to Sydney. I never got used to that tea. It's like drinking blood. Feb 7, 2011
ruzuzu When my great aunt and her husband first came to live in the United States, they were used to the shortages in Europe during WWII. One day they had lunch at a diner where there were these funny large salt-shakers at each table--my great aunt salted her hamburger with one, assuming nobody would leave that much sugar out for just anyone to use. How surprised she was when she took that first sweet bite. Feb 7, 2011
