Thanks Bruce. That was cool

Now (with a good blender) we can make our own meat patties at home from scratch.

It was an odd "experiment". He kept talking up the grossness, but the only problem with the meat he used was that it is hard to get off the bone using just a knife. It was all from one chicken, the guts and head were removed, and the additives weren't particularly alarming. I certainly wouldn't have any problem eating one of those nuggets. It seems he was relying solely on the idea that meat ground finer than one usually sees (ie hamburger) looks wierd. Plus repeatedly saying how gross it was.

You have to remember he's a chef. They feel white wine with red meat is gross.

I'm pretty sure the kids thought the meat was plenty gross. It's just that American children are attention whores who will deliberately eat gross things for fun.

But the French eat frog legs and snails.

Without breading, too.

Every time I see this thread title, the commercial jingle for the game Mystery Date gets in my head, but of course it's changed to:

Open the door
For your
Mystery Meat.

Does this game still exist in the states or is it in the same category as the Edsall?

xoxoxoBruce · 10-09-2010, 08:10 AM

Edsall?

Oh wait, you mean Edsel... yes, tucked away in attics, and at yard sales.

It wasn't that bad. The styling was adventurous, but that's a personal thing. It was ahead of the pack as far as gadgets/novel features, and way too expensive in a down market, but mechanically sound.

Yes, Spud, yucky. I was wondering why the guy was being so particular about which pieces he fed it?

1/2 LOL Actually, I was talking about Mystery Date (but probably another case of me shifting the focus and it being clear to me, but not anyone else, because I didn't tell them or didn't realise myself until afterwards).
