head north (in the summer) and try fermented walrus.  I worked with a guy who used to work for the northern compay, they run stores in places so remote yyou cant get there by helicopter.  one was a 4 day boat ride in the summer, and once a month a supply plane.  he got invited to a feast by the inuit. they just dump everything they caught on a tarp.  raw duck?  seal?  not that bad.  the walrus that was caught at the begining of the summer, had rocks piled on it, and left out for the summer?  90 days later, in a summer that is not hot, but never cools down much, and is warm for sure, its starting to get nasty.

		AHA! Just the person I needed to engage in this most interesting of topics! Great explanation. With pictures to boot! Thanks! Now, then, just how do you feel about Men at Work? Ever find yourself walking around singing "I come from a land down under?" LOL!!! Plus, where is the JP fanbase from Hawaii? I wanna know if Poi is as horrible as some claim too! Hmm...doensn't really piss me off, though. Perhaps I'll have to start a "Please pass the poi" thread in honor of Fred Flintstone.      devils_child wrote: Mmmmm Vegemite!! Fear not the Aussie is here.... OK direct from the Vegemite website is some information for those of you who know little about this delicious Australian spread: Vegemite dates back to 1922 when the Fred Walker Company, which became Kraft Walker Foods in 1926 and Kraft Foods Limited in 1950, hired a young chemist to develop a spread from one of the richest known natural sources of the vitamin B group - Brewers Yeast Kraft has had an on-going commitment since the 1920’s to reinforce the message to Australians that Vegemite is nearly five times more concentrated than yeast, making it one of the world’s richest known sources of the energy giving Vitamin B group. So not only is Vegemite a part of Australia’s history, it is also good for us. For generations, Vegemite has and will remain an intrinsic part of Australian family life. Every Australian is raised on Vegemite, I haven't met a home grown Aussie yet that doesn't like it. I think the problem for foreigners is that they spread it too thick, Vegemite has a strong salty taste and if you spread it like nutella or jam the taste will knock you off your feet.       guidogodoy wrote: That sounds like a dare to me! LOL!!! Come on, where are our Aussie friends to chime in on the subject? (or at least sing along with me in a verse of "Land Down Under.") Something I understand is equally as horrible is Poi. I want to serve it once just so I can relive a Flintstones moment where Fred has to repeat "Please pass the poi" a bunch of times because he keeps flubbing his lines! HO HO!!!      Vaillant 3.0 wrote: Hey, Guido! If you manage to eat a vegemite sandwich, let us know!!
