And it was a brave (or hungry) man that ate the first lobster... "the cockroach of the sea!"

 

 

I think it was the egg guy that was braver...

Touché!

"BRIAN: Larks' tongues. Otters' noses. Ocelot spleens.

REG: Got any nuts?

BRIAN: I haven't got any nuts. Sorry. I've got wrens' livers, badgers' spleens--

REG: No, no, no.

BRIAN: Otters' noses?

REG: I don't want any of that Roman rubbish.

JUDITH: Why don't you sell proper food?

BRIAN: Proper food?

REG: Yeah, not those rich imperialist tit-bits.

BRIAN: Well, don't blame me. I didn't ask to sell this stuff.

REG: All right. Bag of otters' noses, then.

FRANCIS: Make it two."

And it wasn't just the Romans, it used to be if you could cram it in your mouth, you did! Which explains why we eat things like eggs, snails, oysters and truffles. I mean, who would eat what a pig digs up?

 

Life of Brian right?! Haven't seen any Monty Python in awhile...

If you really want to know about European dietary preferences thru the ages,

I suggest aquiring a copy of the book "Tales of the Table: a History of Western Cuisine" by Barbara Norton.

The ancient  Romans ate anything that crawled, walked, galloped, flew or swam.

Not that this thread hasn't already gone way off track, but isn't it funny what things we do consider it 'illegal' to eat, for no real practical reason....

I keep thinking there was a table of wise men watching as animals were paraded in front of them...

Eat it.. don't eat it... looks dumb, eat it... aww, that one's cute, don't eat it...

Rob Gronovius: I'm not gonna think of that Harry Chapin song in the same way ever again.

It also reminds me of hearing a Walter Cronkite interview in which he stated he commented to a Hanoi waiter ( during Viet war peace talks) about the food he was eating and received the reply that their restaurant had the best rats in all of North Vietnam.

YUM !

Vance: that V-1 launch rail you were mentioning in another thread would be PURR-FECT for launching local cats.

Long ago, in a town far, far away, I had my dinner interrupted by the Health Inspectors shutting down the Chinese restaurant I was eating in. I found out later they were accused of serving cat, and other non-food critters.

The songs funny, but not THAT funny!

And to think, I used to "wolf" down my Mu Shu Pork!

So long folks!

They get just a tad bigger than most house cats, I think I read that the average house cat weighs 8-12 pounds and Bengals run 10-15 pounds. While they look really exotic they are still 97-98%, American Short Hair, with just a pinch (it has to be less than 3%) of Asian Leopard Cat.

While he is very playful I have not had much trouble with my models. There was a period where he wanted to sit up on the shelf and snuggle the models, but a few pieces of rolled up duct tape cured that real quick. My old Lab / German Shepard mix was more of a menace with his huge tail

If you make it clear what kind of personality you want a good breeder can match you up pretty well with an animal.

Do you have any websites or breeders you could put me into contact with---I want one!
