Also lots of kangaroo jerky around.

My food of (not) choice: the brain sandwich. I traveled to Evansville, Indiana on a regular basis for over 10 years. They have a restaurant that specializes in the brain sandwich, locals always talked about taking me there, I always avoided it.
I've eaten sweetbreads and liked it/them.

I have however, seen a can of pork brains in milk gravy on more than one supermarket shelf and decided it was not something I would care to eat.

Not very. It's very healthy, but that means the steaks are hard to cook. I don't mind the odd Kanga Banga though.

So are you a vegetarian or will you not eat anything that moves at the time of eating it?

I would think the stomach acids had more effect on the paint than the SC.

I've poured Red Bull straight from the can onto a painted stage before FOR SCIENCE!! It removed the paint in a matter of minutes. Don't drink much Red Bull anymore...

I had read about brain sandwiches in St Louis: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/midwe...uis-thing.html

I still haven't had one, I would try though.

Just don't like the St Louis pizza with provel cheese, yuck.

Isn't that crazy? Stuff people consume by the gallons, and most of us barely even take the time to figure out what it does to us...

I should really stop drinking coke too

I knew a girl in college who invited me over for a mixed drink composed of sloe gin, Southern Comfort, and orange juice.
