You know, when you actually think of it, most of what we eat would be considered utterly gross by a vast majority. At least before it reaches the pre-cooked, tightly packed consume-ready state in which you’ll find it in most supermarkets. Well, by a vast majority in the cities of modern industrial nations that is. Modern people kinda tend to forget, that sliced bread doesn’t grow on store shelves.
So actual dog meat in a hot dog… Would that really be such a biggy? You are after all eating an animals gland secretion, consciously deteriorated, in part by adding a baby mammals gastric enzyme mix into it and then letting the bacteria infested mass rest for weeks or months (read: cheese).
And just for the record: I know first hand where milk and cheese come from, as well as many other things we eat and drink. I also studied the subject for a while.
And I drink a lot of milk, eat a lot of cheese and other dairy products and I am a happy consumer of lots of other ‘icky’ food. But maybe I’m just gross that way.
One of the things I enjoy where I don’t think about it is pork rinds. But – one day, one of the rinds had the ink-dot identification tattoo on it . . .
Oh, Lex, you must be infuriating your poor, suffeirng mother. Please let your kid brother eat in peace!
heh, they tried those lines when I was little. My response? “YUM!” King of the lunch trades long ago…you want that broccoli?
Used to do that to my little brothers all the time. I had them convinced tapioca pudding had fish eyeballs in it.

If it’s edible someone somewhere has eaten it. Take oysters (please) some people love them but not me. Though I can eat a bushel of steamed clams yum.
What about BBQed oysters?
That… sounds delicious, actually! Worth a try, it would seem.
mmmm… grilled oysters from Drago’s in Fat City (Metairie, LA)
Puns are a great power, and with great power comes great responsibility.
Apparently Lex has forgotten the “responsibility” part and went right for the power abuse.
Did you know that we have Jonathan Swift to thank for the ridiculous spelling “catsup”?
/i’ll spell it “ketchup”, thank you very much
//but then i suppose you wouldn’t have a punchline
And Lex wonders why Nicky picks on him…
Gullible, Gullible Nicky.
Cat and dog aren’t that bad, I’ve tried dog before, just a little tough but not all that bad.
LOL i found this comic and just fell in love with it, its fricking funny!
Who am I to disagree
Tried to find out what ‘insect fragments’ were from the FDA.
There’s no definition. It’s left up to the inspectors.
But all that stuff, insects & parts and fragments & rodent dropping and rodent hairs…
Purely aesthetic. Not health-related.
