You would eat a handful of worms if it meant survival. I would too. You just haven't been in great need of sustenance. Never say you wouldn't eat a roasted rat. Someday you might have to. |

When someone says "Viets will eat anything", they're not referring to an emergency situation, but to normal life. Now memorise this and apply it. |

Don't worry about western standards. That's something you need to dismiss. You must make your own standards. That's all that counts. I hope things go well. It sounds like the beginnings of a wonderful life. I had a friend back in the 1960's who was in the US air force in thailand during the vietnam war. I've never been to Tailand myself. We both made it alive back home. Good luck, and enjoy! |

Someday you might have to. dieter dengler was an american pow captured in laos. towards the end of his captivity he ate grubs that were still crawling around. he escaped. the first time i saw him on media was on the ed sullivan show back in the '60's. werner herzog directed a film about part of his life: 'rescue dawn' |

Many can and do eat cats and dog, however. But by no means do they all eat cats and dogs. I wouldn't say it is particularly common and also depends on the region. |

Cool cars. We had some instant cup noodles today for lunch. I think it's called Dr. Holden's 100% all natural vegan noodles with miso. I bought it by accident because it was right next to some Cup Ramen Curry. I had assumed it was made by the same company. Had I noticed the words "all natural" I would have drop kicked that cup back on the shelf. My wife said it was 100% all shitty. It is most unnatural that my wife would say something so profane about food. I guess she must have felt strongly about it. |

It's right there in my reply and the thread itself :) You originally said: "Thai food is very similar to Vietnamese food" There was NO mention of "people on the mainland". Understand the important distinction? I look forward to your oddball response :) |

When we were in Sweden for Midsommer our hostess prepared a wonderful traditional Midsommer meal with a half dozen different variations. Her sister told us not to try one of them because even she thought it was horrible, but, she said it was not as bad as that canned fermented stuff. There was also smoked salmon and smoked eel, smoked reindeer, sausages and meatballs. I never acquired a taste for that traditional flatbread. |

I'll probably do it this week-end. Right now there is an enormous bowl of homemade chili that needs to be slurped down so I can make room in the refrigerator. |

I hope you do get one and we can compare notes:)) It was presumptuous of me to say Panasonic - that was just a slip of my tongue. I associate the brand with microwave oven technology. As it goes, I was not aware of this type of microwave oven. The problem with microwaves is that they travel in straight lines and getting them to move about evenly in a oven has always been a problem. The highly directional nature of microwave propagation is what makes radar technology possible but it's not so good in microwave ovens. Anyway, I will research this, thanks. |

It caused the > radiation to move around instead of the food. Worked well enough. I believe that all microwave ovens have these paddles to dissipate the microwaves. Typically, they are located on the top or the side and resembles a fan blade. My guess that a disco type ball design would probably work great. :) |

In the Gateways Club, a real lavender night spot on the Kings Road where Aldrich filmed the pivotal scene in which Mrs. Croft tells George and Childie (dressed in drag as Laurel and Hardy) about the fate of the former's soap character. Actual club patrons were used as extras; to this viewer, the Gateways (which closed in 1985) looks like lesbo paradise—and certainly far more enticing than the dull scenes set at Meow Mix in Kevin Smith's Chasing Amy. An all-girl quartet, in matching powder-blue sleeveless minidresses and groovy shags, plays both fast and slow; guests are greeted by two dapper women; the club is packed; everyone wants to dance; ladies flirt; the bartender is fast and deft; the pool room is empty. We see the club through first-timer Croft's eyes, or rather, through the rise and fall of her eyebrow. After descending the staircase to the club's main entrance, she looks around at all the writhing sapphistry on display. As she joins George and Childie at the bar, she takes another lascivious, fascinated look around: "Yes, it's most, um, entertaining," she nervously chuckles. > After the film concludes with George's moo!, we can be fairly certain the sacked actress won't be swinging from a noose like Martha Dobie in The Children's Hour. At least George knows where to find her next girlfriend..." > </> i met gertrude stein once. it wasn't very long till i found out where she was really coming from. |
