I've been eating worms all my life. Mostly because nobody loves me.

Chickens are about the cheapest to raise, as they grow fast and don't have to grow very large before they're edible. Not a lot of investment in feed and time per bird -- so they're always fairly inexpensive.

Pork comes in about second, as they grow quickly too and convert weight of feed to weight of pig pretty quick and pretty efficiently.

As for trichina worms, there hasn't been much of that around for many decades since they stopped feeding hogs with table scraps and juicy select garbage, nor letting them roam the marshes and woodlands. Nowadays they get nice clean feed, with no trichina cysts included. Cases of trichinosis in the developed world are more common, I think, from bear hunters not knowing bears are subject to trichinosis and eating roast bear that isn't done all the way through.

Is lamb really expensive in the US, or just compared with other meat?
After all it can't really come further than NZ to England?
Yeah, but it was good fucking lamb, right?

One thing about New Zealand lamb... seasoned with the spunk of a thousand kiwi teenagers.

now that was just disgusting. lol (but i'm laughing...which says a lot about me I suppose)

On a side note, I just said to my husband, "there's a kiwi on the internet now" which was a bit of a faux par. I meant to tell him there's a kiwi posting on the Cellar.

Anyway, welcome to the interwebz NZ.

Surely I'm not the ONLY person from New Zealand posting here... right? Right?

And New Zealand accepts your welcome graciously and says 'thank you' in the dulcet baritones of our Prime Minister.

There probably are other NZ posters. I just can't think of any that're currently posting on this board.

Someone really should have a look up Helen's skirt just to make sure she's got the right tackle.

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me, I'm goin out n eat worms
Big fat juicy ones, little tiny squirmy ones, I'm goin out n eat worms
Suck on the juices, Chew on the meat
Throw the skins away
Nobody knows how I can eat
Worms three times a day!


Thanks a lot Ali, now it's stuck in my head :p

But Helen Clarke's tackle is immensely funny.

New Zealand should know - we've had it thrust down our throats for six years-or-so now.

It's been so long I've forgotten what gag-reflex is.
