Commented on Report: Deet, popular and potent insect repellent, is neurotoxic

Commented on NYT and Jimmy Wales worked together to keep kidnapping news off Wikipedia
@ Be_Reasonable I fail to see how this is about freedom of the press. The government doesn't seem to have been involved at all. The NYT and wiki chose to withhold the information on their own, without intervention. The freedom...

Rich Keller commented on How To Eat a Horse
I tried horse meat in Ghent at the De Hel restaurant. I saw the word "paard" on the menu and asked what it was. The waiter knew we were from the US and probably expected us to get upset about it. He said, "that's, uh, horse meat..." I jumped at the chance to try it. It was braised with wild mushrooms in a Lefe ale reduction and served with a glass Lefe. My wife had rabbit that night. When I'm asked what it tated like, I tell people "much like venison, only nobler and more docile." Horse meat should't be...
Piers W commented on How To Eat a Horse
The French don't necessarily cook it either. Larousse Gastronomique recommends horsemeat rather than beef for steak tartare. I ordered it in Beziers once and was repeatedly asked if I knew what it was. I thought was being asked if I knew it was raw meat so I said yes. It was very good, even with my meal being interrupted by various restaurant people coming out and asking me if I knew what it was several times more. Nobody thinks its unusual to eat squid, and they're much more intelligent that horses....

It was very good, even with my meal being interrupted by various restaurant people coming out and asking me if I knew what it was several times more. I tried to order "Braised Game with Leeks" at a Chinese restaurant. The waiter kept pointing at our blond hair and saying, "Like dog! Like cat!" over and over. I ordered it anyway. It was about the tastiest meat that I've ever eaten. I copied down the characters and found out later that it was golden weasel....

Had kumis when I visited Kazakhstan back in the 90s. It was pretty gnarly, and I really had to stifle my gag reflex, but once it was down it was okay. It was after I had climbed a brazillion steps to the top of a dam, so it wasn't exactly what I was looking for in a refreshing drink. But I like to try regional foods and drinks....
