The Doctor’s Musings

Ok, reading my post of last November where I said I was going to start posting more often got me thinking - I should just fucking post things before they’re “done”. If you, my loyal fan-base of zero don’t like it, bite me. Send all hatemail to here. Anyway, here goes.

So while writing my recent post on crisps, I thought of the various interesting food sites I’ve come across over the years, and thought I’d share them with the world - or at least the two people who read this blog.

First off, the Gallery of Regrettable Food. This haven for depraved recipes boasts wonderful culinary inventions like the Party Sandwich Loaf! Is it a sandwich? Is it a loaf? I can’t tell, I gouged out my eyes after seeing deviled ham covered in frosting.

Next, not a real link, but one dedicated to Woody Allen’s best film - a film with a real message, about how egg-salad sandwich recipes are the most important things in the world. Much better than that recent crap he’s been spewing. Even more modern masters know the value of a good recipe, and treat it accordingly.

Now a site devoted to the ultimate era of food destruction - the seventies. These lovingly-depicted recipe cards outline that tastebud holocaust in all its glory. Iron Chef’s worst mistakes don’t even approach the horror that is Fluffy Mackerel Pudding. I’ve been meaning to lose some weight, and with Weight Watchers recipes like this I’d be hard-pressed to ever eat again.

I’ve gotten my fair amount of shit for being willing to eat just about anything once, but some of the glorious dishes above have really tested that commitment. Well, as with anything, on the net you can always find someone who is more into it than you are, and Steve here definitely wins the WTF are you thinking? award for going beyond the call of duty.
