Weird Cravings
 

Have you ever did your business as you do, and then someone says something about something, and then you want to eat that something?

Today, it happened to me. I was browsing a forum, and someone mentioned someone was standing on cake. I wanted to eat chocolate cake, and then the person "standing" on cake said they thought it was grass. Now, I was all dandy until I saw "deep fried grass" and now I want to go eat grass.

I was watching tv and this dude ate tempura tarantulas SPIDERS yuck

I do like tempura... but tarantula spiders? No!

ye

I imagine the legs at least would have something of a texture like fries. You wouldn't get me trying the abdomen though.

I have no doubt that a properly prepared tarantula would be perfectly edible, but there's just something about the squick factor of the idea of eating such things...

Bugs are supposed to be high in nutrients and stuff but I won't eat anything gooey I won't eat sunny side up eggs with the gooey yolk either no liver nothing mussy gooey runny nothing bloody no rare meat etc my food needs to be solid

Bugs in general aren't gooey. They're crunchy, especially if cooked.

I don't think I'd be willing to eat a bug or tarantula on purpose. Maybe if it were just shaped like it, then sure, but not actually MADE from them.
I wouldn't want to eat any part of it.
I find that to be gross, and am in the same boat as you for the most part. I will eat sunny side up eggs.

I'd expect they'd end up a bit like cooked shrimp, tbph. Also, liver is awesome, imo.

Poor tarantulas.

Everyone, no grapes for Gizzy. They're all mine. And so are all the Rainier cherries.

I crave noodles. ...Or pancakes that wouldn't make me sick.

I have texture issues with liver as well, but it goes alright in liver paste, since it's a paste. Nothing doing with a slab of the stuff though.

My spider thing was watching a video of people in Africa somewhere squishing the goo out of a tarantula rear and eating it on toast. I mean, okay, I can see that being a normal food item, but still not for me.

I don't really do pancakes either. Waffles, yes; crepes, sure; French Toast, passable; but no pancakes.

Eggs and me have a complicated relationship but I do like to dip toast into runny yolk when I have them.

Well it's summer and I've been craving some good ramen lately. D: This is a normal thing for me though, and it sucks cause I was at a local Japanese restaurant with my sis on Wednesday and I could've gotten ramen but it was too hot so I didn't. Dx And now I'm suffering LOL *cries* ;u;

I've been meaning to try actual ramen and not generic noodle stuff that we call ramen. I know a friend mentioned a place but I can't remember what it was. Alas.

I should put it on my list of "touristy things to do at home" given I live an area known for things that I never bother to go see or do because I'm here/there all the time. There's a chocolate festival every year and I've never done it! Or the fancy restaurant week thing with special menus.

Hope you get to! :3 There's different kinds. *~*

A chocolate festival sounds like heaven. *~*

Now I'm craving crispy fried chicken skin. Just the skin, lightly salted.

...Am I weird for actually enjoying liver?

No. Clearly there are people who do. I like it in *some* forms but not all.

I enjoy the flavour.

I don't think I like liver.

I don't think I've ever had liver. :x

*throws crispy fried chicken liver at people*

lol silly Tam

I'm pretty sure I've never had liver. I'd be up for trying it, I guess?

For some reason I like liver, yet don't like most meats/birds/fish.

There's actually a word for craving things that aren't food: Pica.

I didn't know that was such a thing, Tam o_O

I actually have this. :')
Used to chew on erasers all the freakin' time.

NO! YOU MUST SHARE THE RAINIERS WITH ME! *has a bag of them at home currently*

What? Crispy fried chicken livers? They're nom.

AHHHHH! Turnabout! gimme gimmeeeeeee.

XD

NO! MINE!
(Also, Flathead cherries. They should be hitting stores here soon I think.)

Oh? Not familiar with those. What are they like?

They are a beautiful dark, sweet cherry grown in the Flathead Lake region of my beautiful Montana.

Pikachu has Pica

Oooo. Sounds like the Sams I met in the same place I first met Queen Annes. (which last I've never seen again and was starting to think were a figment till I found a thing online asking what the diff between them and Raniars was).

shrimp are basically the bugs of the ocean.

and I've never had liver but it sounds...gross.

I think I've had liver
Liver (along with heart and other bits) is in haggis, yeah? I think?
Pretty good tbh

yeah... Haggis is offal and oatmeal and spices, basically.

They sound delicious. :3

I was gonna do a similar joke, but you beat me to the punch.
