Weird food stuff sold in super markets....Part-1

We came across some of the weird food stuff that are sold in super-markets on net...just posting a few of them.....


So is it pickled snake head? Or is snake head a type of fish? Sold at Asian market in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Black beans are good. Cheese is good. But black bean cheese? I dunno -- its sort of looks like a bowl of ash... lol.....


It's tough to read the label, so I'll just tell you: it's cow lung.







Trout isn't that weird really,
but they hardly look "live."




Haw is a common name for a Chinese fruit called hawthorn.....A haw in a hamburger.... it should have been called HAWBURGER!!!! heheee....

Fried bread Popsicle with carrot-milk flavoring.... Sounds delicious.

Japanese cuttlefish legs: fried, dried, bagged and ready to eat.

Ay-yyooooo Jr.... you got something in your teeth.!!! lol....


Part 2 coming soon.....

Java city..Just another cafe at Brigade Road???

A probable answer would be...... NO,why??? Because of certain features about this place which you wouldn't find in many of the other cafes in Bangalore! Some of the features which compelled us to draw this conclusion about Java city were:
1) A sweet combination of x-Box and coffee!! how does that sound???????how many places in Bangalore would provide that sorta luxury?...i wonder!!!

2)If you ain't interested in X Box,they got some other card/board games too!!

3)A freakin free Pizza!! which gets listed in the Bill as RS 0.00 ...(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 none of these are the amounts i want to pay!! Russel peters!! hahahahhahaahhaaha)

4)Actual Extra Chocolate sauce when u ask for it!! a whole cup.(unlike other places wher they add chocolate sauce as if they are poisoning your Coffee cups or something..LOL)
We visited this place around a week ago,On a weekday though ...but the place was still crowded like any of the weekends! This was the whole gang who got together at Java City: Starting from left : Adnan,Saahitya,Sharma,Me,Nisha and AJ!! So here's a couple of items we ordered: A Mediterranean PiZZA(hope i spelt it right): Garlic Bread with Cheese: Cold Coffee and Chocolate sauce:

AWESOME

The yummy Free pizza(anonymous free pizza) Got a snap of the place once we were about to leave and once the tables were vacated: Its located just a bit ahead of Amoeba(Bowling place) Brigade road. All in all a timepass place!!! If you are bored..(in a group i mean) and looking for a good place to hang out...this should probably be your next destination :-)

Fast-food drive thru freestlye..!!!!

@ Burger King...


@ Taco Bell...


@ Big Mac...

terryfying foods in the world..!!!

Humans are like goats... we will eat any damned thing!!..People are ready to stick any stuff in their mouth without a gun to their head.. We came across some dishes on net that have sprung from SATAN'S own cookbook!!!!...

ESCAMOLES.
These are the eggs of the giant black LIOMETOPUM ants... from MEXICO

while the ants are highly venomous ...the eggs are cheesy and nutty.!!!



the most popular way to eat them is with a TACO...




CASU MARZU.
It is a sheep' milk cheese that has been deliberately infested by a Piophila casei, the "cheese fly" from Sardina, ITALY.
the result is a maggot-ridden, weeping stink bomb cheese in an advanced state of decomposition.This the only cheese that requires eye protection while eating becoz larvae are able to jump about 6 inches into the air..lol... The larvae themselves pass through the stomach undigested, sometimes surviving long enough to breed in the intestine, which causing vomiting and bloody diarrhea.

BABY MICE WINE
Baby mice wine is a traditional Chinese and Korean "health tonic" which apparently tastes like raw gasoline. Little mice, eyes still closed, are plucked from the embrace of their loving mothers and stuffed (while still alive) into a bottle of rice wine and they are left to ferment... cheers !!!!!

PACHA


its a boiled sheep
head from IRAQ.










BALUT
Balut are duck eggs that have been incubated until the fetus is all feathery and beaky, and then boiled alive. The bones give the eggs a uniquely crunchy texture. They are enjoyed in Cambodia and Philippines . They are typically sold by street vendors at night, out of buckets of warm sand.

Stay tuned for some more......

The Entry charges were just 600 bucks/couple and 400 bucks/stag entries,Which was quite affordable when compared to other places at Brigade road.And they gave coupons for the entire amount in return as well!So,well....an ideal place to treat!! hehehhehhehe

Evolution of the Sugar Cane juice.!!

Right from my Schooldays there was one place i would always approach to quench my thirst
"The sugar cane juice center"! The only drink that's really soothing in the scortching heat,Or when your throat dries up,A Big mug of sugar cane juice .Yes 100% Natural and Healthy...
So i finished my dinner and was hoping to have a juice as usual.When i just passed by the Bull temple road next to the area where i live, i saw this big Juice centre called Cane-O-La,sounded wierd,hehe..looked a bit HI-Fi for a damned sugar cane juice centre.So i immediately rushed in and there was a list of six flavours of only Cane juice!What the!!!
1)Natural
2)Mint
3)Ginger
4)Salt and Pepper
5)Lemon
6)Chat Masala
And any thing,any flavour would cost just 10 bucks!!!
As usual whenever i enter a place for the first few times i never take the risk of ordering something unusual ,yea...thats me...(Learnt from hell lots of bad experiences..lol..)

So i went for the "Natural" one,And there it was...immediately in a matter of 10 seconds,All ready..all set to gulp..Man o man..gone are the days when we used to wait for the juice for like 10-15 minutes amidst the noisy machine that the shop keeper used to run,Almost used to sound like a generator!!!!
The operators of the new and sophisticated machines were supposed to wear plastic gloves which assured "No human Touch",The ice cubes that they provided were also Food grade ones.This place was even Air conditioned!!!!!! Wohoo..
All in all a relishing experience that i had ,They even have branches at:

Jayanagar 9th Block (Next to SSMRV)
R T Nagar
Near BDA complex in Banashankari 2nd Stage
Ajay,sorry dude...Ain't there in Koramangala!! :-)

The incomparable "SHAWARMA" experience!!!!..

If the evening meal had a "fake" named burger on the menu!!! the dinner that i planned was something illusionary as well! Yes,we then proceeded towards koramangala where i stay to the place where me and my cousin Bro visit often.I
would call the dinner what we had as illusionary coz it was actually like that!!!
This place is called "Kabab Magic" and i would say that the name perfectly goes with what it has to offer! We decided to give it a go to one of the food item which was like the most loved one by all of us back in manipal, "The shawarma".
The food it had on display was indeed mouth watering!
So we went ahead and ordered for 2 shawarmas (the waiting ..etc etc) aahh,although we had to kinda wait for the orders to arrive...when we got it, the wait was totally worth it!!!
When we had the first go at the shawarma,i thought "this is heaven wrapped in a
roomali roti!!!"it was ammaazing!!!..After finishing the shawarma we went ahead and ordered a roomali roti + chicken curry combo! Roomali roti combo was same as shawarma(in disguise)hehhe,it was worth of what we paid ... (40 bucks yo!). The desire for the roomali roti was still not fulfilled,what did we do?yess.....ordered one more!!haha( i know that was too much of roomali for a day!!phewwww). And then came the best of all,the special drink....."The The The Grape juice,I would rather call it Grape Blasstt!!!!"
It had everything that no other drink can offer,the taste was really soothing and the pulp was awesomely sweet.All in all,this place indeed made us go hocus-pocus with what food they had to offer .Its a known fact that in Bangalore every eat out place that offers good food,is by default expensive as $hit.But this place totally breaks the jinx,it provides u all the shawarmas,the kebabs,the roti combos,the variety of tandoori stuff and a price which is not at all heavy on your pockets!

Haa,and we would like to use this post as an opportunity to let know one of our good friend Pavitra Acharya.
One of the best foodies..hehe. A cheese fanatic(she craves for food) that we are waiting for your arrival (supposed to be here on the 21st of December) from Eindhoven,Netherlands!!!come soon yo!

"And ya this time we'll surely take you to MTR!" :-)

The "Bluffed" KFC , called BFC!!!!

Fake shoes,Fake shirts,Fake perfumes!!!hmm,Guess we people in Bangalore are used to all of that by now.....But "FOOD",that too "KFC",a renowned brand world wide for food! This is something interesting....
I'm not stating that the food is fake...lol...but the content that's available in this place called "BFC" -- BigBoy Fried Chicken......is surely a copy of KFC.These people not only ape the looks and the taste of the items,even the freakin names!!!!!Beat that!!!!!
I mean consider this one example : Zinger burger (KFC) = Zinker Burger(BFC) ,And numerology has nothing to do with this,hehhehehe.
Last weekend (sunday evening) I suggested Ajay that we visit this place,It was stuck in my head since the time I had visited HSR Layout(near Agara lake,Silk board) located in Bangalore!
WE visited this place with a thought in our mind that:
"Everything will be the same except for the name"
But got outta that place with this thought:
"Everything was lame including the name"!!!
Hmm.....WE both reached there...and to our surprise,this was not just an outlet sorta thing,but a fully fledged "FAMILY RESTAURANT"....ohhh MY god!





That was the first sight of the place when we got down from the Car,We were like "what the!!! this is funny"
Then we entered the place ,sadly got a table in some Family hall.(Tolerating all of this) we went ahead and ordered the following:

The Phoney Zinger Burger ...the "Zinker Burger",It looked the same as the original,but the taste was not even close to that of the actual one!





The next item on our plates were the Finger chips(French Fries),Smaller in size,when compared to KFC,And hell lot oily!!!






Ahhh,How can i forget the chicken strips,thankfully not renamed to convinence..were still chicken strips....(The same as the finger chips!! heavily oily and the covering was not that crispy also)!!




And finally "coke"...was still "coke" by god's grace!! hehe.







A sneak peak at the menu consisting of what they had to offer:




Other than the above menu items there were couple of other North Indian Items,Kababs,Tandoor items as well! lol....kinda funny!
Thats how you add "Swadeshi " spice to "Videshi"stuff,All in all a good trick pulled off,anyway its believed that Creativity and Money making go hand in hand...hehe.And this concept indeed was creativity at its peak !!!
After all of this we proceeded to have the actual dinner for that night, about which my pal Ajay will be writing soon,Stay tuned :-)
