View Full Version : food that makes u sick after you find out how its made.
Just found out figs are made by a fly flying up inside the fig, laying an egg. The egg then hatches and the maggot fertilises the flower inside the fig by eating its way out or something. The maggot then drops out of the fig, and low and behold its ready for us to eat...
i ate figs last night...
WHY OH WHY!!!!
anyway who else has had this happen to them, i need to feel better about myself.
you bastard :(
lol
What about cottage cheese? I don't know how its made but i'm willing to bet its a disgusting process.
One of my mates found a cows tooth in side a 4and 20 pie YUCK!

Figs don't really have flowers as such, the flower is actually inside the fruit! Close examination of a fig fruit will reveal a tiny hole opposite the stem end. In their natural environment a tiny wasp enters this hole and pollinates the 'flower' within. Figs don't need pollinating to produce fruit so you shouldn't worry about this aspect of growing - but it was worth mentioning.

Meat Pies are a classic. Theres all sorts of wierd shit in there. But if the Stadium is sold out of them during the footy, there will be hell to pay.
I thought figs just grew on trees like normal fruits and are attacked by insects just like fruit?
omg just like little miss watsername.
However I knew someone who worked for Kraft and how they make that cheddar cheese is like this: they leave it out and it grows a massive big coating of green mould on it, then this person and other ppl there used to cut that off, and whats underneath is the finished product.

I also just found this:
Figs are especially interesting because they have tiny unisexual male and female flowers inside a fleshy structure called a syconium. A minute female wasp squeezes into the syconium to pollinate the flowers and lay her eggs. After a few months, the new generation of wasps have an orgy inside the syconium and fertile females exit and start the entire cycle over again.

On orgy in a fig! :lol:
I saw a thing the other day on making it.
They skim the curds out, then mash all up into a block of cheese

I did part time work in a food factory when I was about 13... good cash, but there are some foods that I will never touch. EVER.
Pate, for example.
It's just made in a big churning hot vat full of livers and herbs. Seeing one of these things being filled is horrible - literally a contrainer full of livers and gorey looking shit is dumped into one, and it gets churned around until it coimes out as a smelly, livery paste, then refridgerated. The smell haunts me to this day.
:-*

Well i think for that they basically just leave it out and let the mould grow free!
And what cheese is it that is stored in goats' piss? There is one. Its actualy quite tasty. Kind of weird.
The other ones of course, most of the soft cheeses with their mouldy bits. However even though i know how they're made, I quite like my camembert and brie.
Um.... Macdonalds... I just prefer not to think about that one.

Nettsu's right.
To make cheese milk basically has the crap beaten out of it until it forms a solid. Half way through the process it's kind of a mixture of milk and lumpy bits. That's cottage cheese. Much less yukky than full on cheese really. There are different types of cheeses that that put maggots in. The maggots eat the cheese then then shit it out the other end and that's the cheese you're laft with. It's a delicacy in France and Italy if I remember rightly and I think we make it in Tassie too.
People in iceland dig a small hole and put all their ish heads and guts and offcuts into, leave it for about 8 weeks then dig it up and eat the congealed slime it has rotted into.
The gross one for me is margarine. It's basically just black fat and they bleach it and dye it yellow to resemble butter. I don't eat margarine and have not bought a tub in about 14 years.

mmm yum
Chicken liver cooked with bacon onion and mushroom in white wine sauce is one of myfavourite dishes. it taste just like pate but its a stew.
What about natural casing sausages.
Natural casing = intestine.
That is the traditional way to make them but when you buy sausages these days the casing is a type of synthetic.
I think i'd prefer the natural one.

thanks guys, you have officially helped me :offchops:
well I thought it were bullshit but the idea of eating solidified hog fat doesnt really excite me either :lol:
the crackle part is its skin.
The way it goes is like this I THINK (from having cooked it)
When you roast it, the fat underneath the skin liquefies, soaking into the meat, or dripping off, and also cooking the skin from underneath.
So the skin part gets cooked both ways and forms that crackle stuff.

I dont' think anything bad happens to it but the smell is disgusting.
Crackling is the best. maybe they're getting confused with the term Meat sweating? Different from actual sweat.
I do agree with Dbauch on the chicken nuggets... they're usually purple or dark grey inside, except for Inghams which seems to use actual chicken but who can tell.

I agree with krafty, it's all perception.
I mean, how freaked out was the average Anglo-Saxon extraction Australian by the idea of eating raw fish before sushi became popular?
I'll eat just about anything when it's come from a natural source. No issues with mouldy cheese, pate, crackling, etc. Pork belly is actually fantastic too.
You should be more worried about the weird arse chemicals you're consuming in manufactured foods, rather than stuff that's come from an actual animal or grown on a tree FFS.

And Emskina, not sure whether a meat pie flavour could be considered "good"...I worked in a french bakery for a bit and the chef was this balding, dirty little french dude with long fingernails, stained hands and teeth and he smoked cigars over the meat mix for the pies and I always wondered whether the cigar ash made its way in there. But I rarely ate anything in the shop cause of him...*shivers*. Rotten man...totally rotten.

yeah thats sea lice isn't it? I've caught stacks of fish and found even really huge ones in where the fish's brain is.
yeah missb29 well i'm not saying that every indian restaurant serves off meat, but the meat is usually pretty low-quality. And an interesting fact is the origin of curries and sauces was to disguise rank meat.

I think I've just learned to accept the fact that I don't know what's in pies. I like them anyway.
Seriously, if it comes wrapped in pastry, it;s all good. In fact, I may demand that my relatives wrap my Christmas presents in pastry this year. It would make them just that little bit better.

:-* That better be bullshit.
Mum told me a couple of nights ago there were some Korean people arrived in Australia, didn't really speak the language, and because over there amongst some people eating dogmeat is quite the done thing, when they went to Coles they bought dogfood to eat. Well it had a picture of the dog on it, looked nice packaging etc... true story.
I've worked in restaurants where they have served oysters and other foods that are obviously off. You can smell off food a mile away, especially when its meat of some description.
The final straw at one cafe I worked at in Wollongong was when they served bacon that had been in a container with maggots in it...Friggen stingy bastards. All they thought of was that it cost them like 5 bucks for a kilo of bacon and they didn't want to throw away the off stuff. I threw a tanty and left on the spot.

My favourite food as a young child used to be crumbed veal, but when my mother informed me that veal was baby cow I have never eaten it since.
I remember seeing the cattle trucks going past with the cows and pigs in them on the way to the slaughterhouse and couldn't eat any meat for about a year afterwards. Everytime I tried I kept picturing their eye's looking at me through the slats and felt really sad.
I am not a vegetarian but sometimes I wish I had the strength to be one, that I didn't like meat as much as I do, cows are beautiful.

It's also worth noting that many moulds and bacteria are extremely good for us and help our immune system. But that's no excuse for shoddy food handling practices.

my exboyfriend used to eat this delicacy where they had a duck's egg, and it was fertilized, then they'd cook it, open it and eat the foetus with the egg part as well.
Another one they loved was buying some nice pigs blood - all watery not yet coagulated - and quickly mix in some noodles, onions, and other stuff. Then it would congeal and yum yum yum eat away.
was he filipino?
They have those in the philippines.. along with this duck liver (not the nice pate taste just straight up liver) noodle dish.
and the 24 hour pork house!
Didn't they reduce the amount of "real" meat required in pies from 20% to approx 14 % ?
mmmm entrails.

What about asian restaurants? I saw a report of Today Tonight couple of years ago.. which put me off asian food completely.. Apparently they wash the leftovers and cook them again in other sauces... So you never know how many times your lemon chicken has been under the shower!!! :-*
ahh well, tastes good...
i was walkin past the back of a chinese restuarant one night and there was some guy feeding 7 or 8 cats... and when i walked back past about 5 minutes later they guy and cats were nowhere to be seen... so it made me wonder....
:lol: hhahahaha
Don't worry, goats cheese is not fermented in goats piss, however goatse cheese is.
well I've never tasted piss (well least not that I'm aware of) but that really strong goats cheese has that disgusting urea smell to it which I think smells too much like piss to be consumed
lol I reckon Goatse cheese would be awesome
NOT
i gave up popcorn chicken after a colleague told me that his wife's father, a health inspector, found that maggots had been dropping from the exhaust into the fryer...
in asia, i travelled with one other girl and we found ourselves constantly having drinks bought for us by gentlemen. after several glasses of one particularly unusual beverage, we enquired as to it's composition, and were delighted to find that it was 5 penis & testes wine... supposedly containg the penis & testes of snakes, rabbits, dogs, tigers & boars
um...
steak is moo cow!
neber again.
Ok, so I may be niaeve, and I may be stupid, but guys, you should have warned me re: goatsea. fricken hell. At work I opened it. WORK!!
:lol:
If only the boss had seen..!!
Anything made via microwave. That's radiation people. You'll all soon be mutated freaks eating your leftover somethings. FREAKS!!

you make mutants sound like a bad thing...
ey, whats wrong with the microwave. Maybe I like the radiation, maybe it makes me smarter (or dumber depending on how you read my previous post). And whats wrong with eating leftover spaghetti the next day or the day after...there's no used by date on it! So long as its not moving, mouldy or really stinky I say its all good.

I find it interesting that you can leave a packet of sealed rice or something similar for about 4 months, and then you end up opening it, you find that it is full of weevils.
Mmmm baby weevils and rice
i can't use microwaves either... their just wrong.
maybe use it for heating water (if i had no other option)... or use it to defrost the dogs dinner

There was this restaurant ere at GC that they closed down a little while ago.
Can't remember the name of it, BUT, one story I heard is that they painted over a dead rat on the floor!
If you're worried about radiation you better turn that computer off then.

Yes this is true!!!
Saw the picture in the Gold Coast Bulletin!
I think the restaurant is called Jo's, it's at the top of the Oasis Shopping Centre. they do really cheap meals there.....no wonder!
They found cockroaches in the food as well :-*
I also heard the Mongolian BBQ Restaurant at Mermaid Beach got caught serving Ibis instead of chicken...haven't been back since.

New years day delicacy from my youth-
Bolied tongue covered in an almond and parsley sauce--- eaten cold.
It's just like a salad with green dressing, except it's what an animal once used to lick their own genitals, if they could reach them.

Needless to say not anymore :lol:
I'd expect to pay more for ibis than chicken. A roast ibis would be a glorious sight on a long platter for the Mongolian feast for ten.
They totally got the market wrong. They could have gone into the specialty animal side of things.

It's shaved slices of Ibis so they might be deceived by the size of the feast!

I didn't find out about it being Ibis until after I had been (funnily enough!) and the scary thing is we went with a group of about 10 people and we all raved about how good the food was!! Recommended it to everyone as a great meal!
Maybe the Mongolians are onto something :P :lol:

Get your mum to make it for your birthday again!:lol:
That was great, so were the chinchulines and mollejas. I believe the latter is a gland of some sort and those little curly chinchulines are little curly strips of Intestine. All from moo-cows.
cuz- we ate glands:(

The meat in the Lean Cuisine/KanTong frozen meals always looks dodgy too.
After I really had a look at it I couldn't eat the rest because my brain wouldn't shut up with coming up with all sorts of idea about what it actually was.

Next to Spam in the tinned meat isle you will find a delightful product named "Camp Pie" ingredients...and I quote "Mechanically seperated meat"

One of the worst foods i've ever heard of:
" A visitor to Chau Doc does not return home without ajar or two of its famous "mam," or fermented fish. There is a large variety, all with a very pungent aroma. Travellers overseas are routinely warned against bringing mam on board, lest a leaky jar will give Vietnam a bad name.
The mother of all mam, the stinkiest, however, is Cambodian. It is the infamous "bo hoc mam." It is not so much fermented but rotting fish, complete with maggots (which, by the way, are not eaten). Once you get over the smell, I've been told, it is delicious"
Hmm unless you can go pick something out of the ground, off a tree, or slice it right off the animal, you really prolly don't wanna know whats in ALOT of things we eat without thinking about these days. Thats not to say i don't eat it still though :lol:
my exboyfriend used to eat this delicacy where they had a duck's egg, and it was fertilized, then they'd cook it, open it and eat the foetus with the egg part as well.
Another one they loved was buying some nice pigs blood - all watery not yet coagulated - and quickly mix in some noodles, onions, and other stuff. Then it would congeal and yum yum yum eat away.
hehehe, i remember the 'duck eggs'. Not the nicest things too look at, let alone eat.
Was your ex a filipino?

I was a bit more WTF about what a 'camp pie' actually is, and how it differs from normal pies.
But yes, mechanically seperated meat sounds pretty off... maybe it's just a euphemism for "fell into the giant blender".

He's Vietnamese :)
I am yet to be turned off any food by hearing how it was made!

Yeah its a bit like when a kid gets hit in the head by a brick, and shrugs it off, no worries, hurt a bit but its ok, then a trickle of blood runs down his face and all hell breaks loose, the screaming, the crying, the gnashing of teeth, the pain oh the pain...
