Chicken heart, cow tongue, liver, goat. My mom made me that for dinner when I was a kid. Lol. Loved them!

Not saying you didn't eat crazy stuff or not a manly man. I was just a funny short list. reminded me of my childhood. Pig knuckles, ducks feet, stomach lining, yum.

Damn you got me beat! I have never indulged in any of that you mentioned above. Not sure if I would.

Paul- I'm with you, too many sissies and wimps (to put it lightly). It's good to keep them around though, you never know when you'll need food during the zombie apocalypse.

Last week while leaving the supermarket by me the sky just opened up in the most biblical sense minus the brimstone and fire. The overhang was occupied by several males waiting for it to stop. One was wearing a nice suit so he gets a pass on this one but the other guys all looked like they just left the gym... WTF, I just ran to my car.

If you were getting clams served on a mud bar built on concertina, I'd be there.

Problem is from birth till now from the early ninetys parents were told "dont yell at him you will hurt his feelings" or "dont push him to hard you will hurt his self esteem" yada yada yada. Back when i was young when i sliced my arm or leg open Dad would say put some electric tape on it your fine. Now kids go to the doc when they stub their toe.I dont blame it on the mothers nowadays i blame it on the media and government for not allowing us to teach our kids like we were taught with a god ol fashioned beat down.

Ok, I will happily dump myself into the sissy category.
Raw seafood is bait to me.
YUCK.
Gimme a steak any day of the week. :)

i too am a sissy/wimp by the mentioned definitions.
i trained and competed in "mma" before the ufc even started, i competed in muay thai, judo, full contact taekwondo, played football, soccer, and baseball with broken fingers, hands, feet, and a rib(of course not all at the same time...lol). i had broken every limbs and then some. i had concussions where the coach used to tell you to walk it off.
but i am a wimp.......i'm afraid of cockroaches. i hate mosquitoes. i like doing my business in a bathroom not in the woods. i wear sunscreen and insect repellent. and i use moisturizing lotions.
when it comes to raw/weird food. if i can't identify it or if it's moving, i ain't touching it.
i'm such a sissy!!!

It's nothing but seafood for me. calamari, scungeel, any kind of salt water fish, crab, crustacean or anything that slithers, swims or crawls out of the sea. I would eat amphipods if they would not fall in between my grill. So Kathy, I never ordered a steak in my life. But I know many people do. :tongue1:

I noticed on this beautiful Sunday morning that my neighbor is taking his two young boys roller skating and I was thinking how times have changed. The little boys had nice new skates like they use now with the boots attached and they had on helmits, knee and elbow pads. At that age I had, like all kids, metal skates that you put on your "shoes" (we didn't really use sneakers much) and you needed a skate key to attach the skates to your shoes. Of course before you used them you had to oil the wheels or they would squeak. The skates clamped on to the soles of your shoes and if you hit a bump, they would fall off causing you to fall and often times, scrape your knees. We always had scraped knees. If we skated a lot, we wrapped rags around our knees because band aids were expensive and would not cover those big scrapes. We would find a big hill and skate down it. That was scary as the only way to stop was to fall. Our parents were never with us as no one would steal us and there was no cell phones so we knew to come home before dark.

We kids were in good shape and had street smarts. We knew where to get a drink of water (there was no bottled water) and occasionally free food.
We collected tadpoles, daphnia, frogs, turtles and lightning bugs. The entire year was spent outside as there was only black and white TV and there was nothing on anyway.
I am not sure how many kids live on my block as none of them even go outside. When I babysit, I always take my granddaughter to the park, sleigh riding, or boating. Even if it is raining or snowing. Kids belong outside.
Just my opinion of course and if I offended anyone, get over it.

There is this show on now called Naked and Afraid and I saw it twice and what a bunch of wimps. The girls are much better than the "manly" men on the show. They were supposed to be picked for their survivor skills but the men on that show are wimps. They leave them on an Island, naked with nothing and they are supposed to survive for 21 days. The men spend all the time complaining and practically crying. One "survivor" was afraid of spiders, snakes, sharks and alligators. That was the "man".
They were starving, living on snails and a few worms when the place was filled with large caiman which have like 40 lbs of delicious meat that tastes like chicken. He was afraid of them. It rained a lot and they were really disgusted of rain. Like really! :bablefish
I lived in a jungle for a year and when it wasn't pouring, it was just raining hard. We had plenty of snakes, bugs, tigers, elephants, (plus the enemy) and I lived just fine. OK I didn't have to eat bugs, but I would if I had to, and C Rations were not much better.
I am amazed at the "wimps" they put on a show that is supposed to be "experienced" survivalists.
What a bunch of Sissies. :sad2:
