I mean, in general they're pretty good. Their cherry flavor is great. But drinking lavender? I just don't get it.



These things we created as alternatives to hard beverages, according to our old banquet manager. We served them at event bars a lot. So even if some flavors are kind of nasty for a non-alcoholic drink, you can pretend it's just some fancy cocktail that doesn't make sense. Lavender sounds alright.

As a gin fan, I would love the juniper berry soda, I think. I wonder where they sell that stuff? Probably with the Cel-Ray. t:mad:

I'd love non alcoholic gin. I don't often like getting drunk, but I love the flavor.

Don't drink the absolute cheapest possible option and maybe you'll appreciate the flavor. If not, that's fine too, but give the good stuff a try before denouncing gin.

quote:

The "creamy" taste of stag semen is proving popular with pub-goers, after the release of a special stout at the Green Man pub in Wellington.

The pub in Victoria St launched the stout, created by local brewery Choice Bros, to mark the upcoming Beervana event on August 14-15.
Patrons and employees at the pub were eager to sample the strange brew, with many surprised at how much they liked it.



The pub's duty manager, Shannon Elvy, described it as "creamy". "It's pretty good. It's not as bad as I thought it would be.
"It's definitely creamy. Actually a lot creamier than a stout would usually be.
"It wouldn't be my first choice of drink, but you've got to try it once, I suppose."

Diner Katie Beswick drank a pint with her lunch, and was surprised at how easily it went down.
"The thing that got me is how smooth it is," she said. "It really goes down quite easily."

Not everyone was as enthusiastic, with patron Jade Spiers-Allan saying she was slightly put off by the sour finish.
"I suppose it tasted like a normal dark beer," she said.
"Although the aftertaste was pungent, quite sour. It wouldn't really be my drink of choice."

Pub co-owner Steve Drummond said it was the afterthought, not the aftertaste, that stopped him enjoying the beer.
"It's a really good beer. But I keep having these thoughts after I drink it. I can't get the image of a stag out of my head."

Already talked about it earlier in the thread. Honestly, I probably would do it. I've had it before and liked it. I'm not actually a Newfie, though, just related to some. I also live in Saskatchewan, and to the best of my knowledge, the nearest place that sells hard bread is in Slave Lake.

There is almost nothing people normally eat that I find disgusting. I've eaten and liked bugs, brain, pig feet, but there is yet one thing that I still to this day cannot enjoy.

What I find even more strange is that it's a staple dish of cheap buffet everywhere in my country and most people love it. And also that taken separately, I like all its ingredients. But put together? Just the thought of it makes me gag.

So do I. And yet it's really a popular dish (aptly called "pêches au thon").



Note that it MUST be prepared with canned peaches, canned tuna, and cheap mayo. It is forbidden to use fresh product to prepare it.

If there was ever a traditional dish that clearly started out as somebody's last-items-in-the-pantry special, this would have to be it.

Of course that looks gross as hell, but slop that on some basmati with saffron and toss some warm naan on the plate, and that's some fine eatin'. Hell the naan doesn't even have to be warm.


I would say that this looks like that time I changed my daughter's diaper after she hadn't pooped in three days, but I'd be taking her to the doc like loving yesterday if I saw that that red stuff on the edge of it all.

I find them from time to time in camping stores, often Pilot Biscuit brand. Apparently Costco may carry them as well. I know the salt cod is often at Walmart in Winnipeg, probably the same there. It's usually in the cold foods section, towards the marinated beef.

Sooo... it's really sweet cream soda? Funnel cake doesn't really have much of a flavour other than cake and sweet. It's all about the sugar and fat and cakey texture with a crispy exterior, which can't translate to a soda.... I hope. :stare:
