2 - cheese drink

Fact, the Japanese don't like cheese, 20% of students said they would be unable to identify it and 30% of adults think cheese gives you cancer.

The NEEDS company are trying to change this with their pourable cheese drinks.

ugh. remember that thread we had a while back with them eating live fish etc.? fucking savages.
i suppose we should 'respect' their nauseating food culture/preferences.
fucking whale murderers.

[Duchess]

Mock isn't pc at all. We don't have to respect other cultures in here. Fuck 'em.

Are the Japs the same people who club to death all those darling baby seals? I'd like to put a hurtin' on those people.

ok, top this for disgusting jap food.

Somehow this feels like a Vonnegut plotline: population boom equals food shortage. Solution? Synthesize food from human waste matter. Absurd yes, but Japanese scientists have actually discovered a way to create edible steaks from human feces.

Mitsuyuki Ikeda, a researcher from the Okayama Laboratory, has developed steaks based on proteins from human excrement. Tokyo Sewage approached the scientist because of an overabundance of sewage mud. They asked him to explore the possible uses of the sewage and Ikeda found that the mud contained a great deal of protein because of all the bacteria.

The researchers then extracted those proteins, combined them with a reaction enhancer and put it in an exploder which created the artificial steak. The “meat” is 63% proteins, 25% carbohydrates, 3% lipids and 9% minerals. The researchers color the poop meat red with food coloring and enhance the flavor with soy protein. Initial tests have people saying it even tastes like beef.

Inhabitat notes that “the meatpacking industry causes 18 percent of our greenhouse gas emissions, mostly due to the release of methane from animals.” Livestock also consume huge amounts of resources and space in efforts to feed ourselves as well as the controversy over cruelty to animals. Ikeda’s recycled poop burger would reduce waste and emissions, not to mention obliterating Dante’s circle for gluttons.

The scientists hope to price it the same as actual meat, but at the moment the excrement steaks are ten to twenty times the price they should be thanks to the cost of research. Professor Ikeda understands the psychological barriers that need to be surmounted knowing that your food is made from human feces. They hope that once the research is complete, people will be able to overlook that ugly detail in favor of perks like environmental responsibility, cost and the fact that the meat will have fewer calories.

chinese. same kind of repulsive shite.

Hubei Shendan Healthy Food Co, China's largest producer of egg products, has filed an official complaint with CNN that requires the U.S. TV network to apologize for listing pi dan, a traditional Chinese dish, as the "most disgusting food" in the world, Shanghai Daily reported.

CNN described the Pi Dan as looking strange and having a poor taste, which has sparked off an angry debate in China. The complaint, filed on Monday on behalf of Liu Huaqiao, chairman of Shendan, as well as its 3,000 employees, was the latest in a series of civilian efforts aimed to defend the popular Chinese dish, which is hundreds of years old.

"CNN's report, based on evaluations made by those who are even not consumers of pi dan, was obviously conducted in an unscientific way," Shendan said in a letter. "The conclusion it has come up with only proved its ignorance and arrogance, as well as a complete lack of respect for cultural traditions in other countries."

The dish is made by preserving eggs in a mixture of clay, ash, salt, lime and rice hulls.

The letter said pi dan reduces cholesterol in fresh eggs by more than 20 percent and causes protein and fat to be better absorbed into the body.

ewwwwwwwwwwwwww you have to see the video below!
i think that's an octopus, not a squid.





Diners in Japan looking for a moving experience over dinner can now order a squid that dances off their plate.

A restaurant has created a dish, named Odori don - literally meaning dancing squid rice bowl - by adding soy sauce to a fresh squid.

The high salt content in the sauce reacts with ions in cells of the squids' tentacles creating voltage differences, and making the squid move.

[trixie]

That gave me the creeps! Why would anyone eat that?

[Duchess]

It would mess with my head to see my food moving.
