fic: how can you have any pudding (ff7)

[jukeboxhound]

Title from Pink Floyd's, "Another Brick in the Wall."  Because it's the first thing that came to mind.

How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

*Evil cackle*

And of course, the traditional breakfast includes black pudding~

And then Cloudy and Sephiroth visit Zack in Gongaga with the Touch Me frogs legs and giant jungle snails.

Oh, culture~ <3

Excuse me while I drool over black pudding omgyessss. And because haggis is totally from the same region as eggs/brains (which I meant to try the last time I was at the German festival thing in Evansville, Indiana but failed to do because the beer was calling me more loudly).

Thank god escargot pretty much just tastes like chewy butter and garlic to my unrefined peasant's palate.

[fateofshadow]

German festival, giant pretzels, nnnnnff. Enough said.

And if you've got a peasant's palate, what does that say about me? I live with the stuff and don't touch the majority of the freaky shit. England's got it just as bad though- steak and kidney pies. *shudders*

I really do have to try haggis again though. I think the experience was blighted by big bro telling me what it was... while it was still in my mouth. x___x

I've always wanted my very own brain. *Strokes jar* Thank you for the pressie, hun. *blows kisses*

[jukeboxhound]

Apparently that means you mean have posh discriminating tastes. I will more than happily go around the city with you to find just the right haggis; it is your duty as a Scotswoman and my own duty to you!

/just wants an excuse

I was thinking of this scene when I saw that brain and so lol'd quite heartily.

Worst smell ever? Menudo at 3am. I was ready to kill my roommate.

[jukeboxhound]

I may be showing off my ignorance here, but are we talking the Mexican or the Filipino version? And yay for 3am cooking. I don't think my flatmates ever forgave me for setting off the fire alarm by my trying to cook rashers like they were streaky bacon.

[pyrotechnik]

It was the Mexican version. I didn't know there was a Filipino version, although, if the Spanish were ever there, that would make sense (oh how I fail at Asian history). I have nothing against 3 am cooking, but this was in a small dorm room.
I've never had rashers. What is the difference between them and bacon (and which kind of bacon, the US or Canadian version?), besides the way you cook them?

[jukeboxhound]

Aye, the Spanish started colonizing the Phillipines in the sixteenth century or so. Fucking imperialism.

Rashers are basically thick-sliced ham (even though my UK/Irish acquaintances would scoff and say that's how bacon is supposed to be), and trying to crisp it like you would the thin-sliced fatty stuff (I guess that'd be the American version?) just gives you a lot of smoke and disgruntled flatmates.

Blood sausage.

Take pigs intestines, fill with pig's blood (and rye and a few other ingredients). Boil one hour and keep cool until served (whenever tat is).

...Mmmmh, there's just something about a recipe that says you need two litres of blood.

[jukeboxhound]

If you make it homemade, I am so crashing at your place some day. :DDD

[sigart]

XDD Sorry, I don't. Though if you'll be crashing, I might be talked into it ;)

I also meant to poke a little fun at how Cloud tends to get so overly uke-ified; yeah, he's shorter than the others and was the prettiest drag queen in a lineup of women, but c'mon.

(applause)

This was all awesome, and having Cloud act out his revenge over being the pretty princess over food was pretty kick-ass.

[jukeboxhound]

\o/

[megpie71]

My explanation for why Cloud was chosen as the "prettiest" is much more straightforward, and has a lot more to do with the individual psychology of Don Corneo than anything else. I figure the Don chose Cloud because Cloud was the most reluctant of the three, and the one least comfortable with the notion of being the Don's "bride" for the night

[amarissia]

Zack: *turns green*
Cloud: YAY ME!"

Poor Zack, unable to cope with indigenous food.

[jukeboxhound]

He's waiting for his chance to get Cloud into a Gongaga kitchen.
