Some Reservations

Last night on "No Reservations" in Namibia, Anthony ate a pig's anus, and part of the pig's head that was cooked in the ground. He said it was the worse meal he's ever had, ever. I don't know, I still think when he was in Iceland, the fermented shark that smelled like ammonia would still win out as "worst food ever" in my book. But then, maybe it's because a long time ago, Stan and I bought a shark steak and when we went to cook it, it smelled like ammonia (we didn't eat it). That was most disturbing. And I've never had an experience with a pig's anus, so I wouldn't be able to comment. Stan has eaten chitlins...he says they smell awful, but they taste good.

The best meal Anthony had in Namibia was roasted beetles. That's how desperate the food situation was there. But when you think about it, what are insects, but land shrimp? And who doesn't love shrimp?

Despite this, I still got hungry during the show. But maybe it was the oyster farming bit at the beginning that set it off. Mmmmm....oysters. The perfect food.

When I first saw the show I couldn't imagine which I would rather eat - the fermented shark or the pig cooked in sand, unskined and unwashed with all of what ever the animal was eating cooked along with the animal.

After some time I think I would rather eat the pig, cheeks, organs skin flesh and bunghole than eat the amonia soaked fermented shark. Send me to Mother Africa and never mind small islands with spookey cultural practices that are rooted in the vikings or what ever.

Eat the pig and have beetles for desert.
