Really? This is a piece of trivia I was unfamiliar with...

A friend of mine ran a Navy diver school in Hawaii. These are people who think that SEALs & Army Rangers would be nice guys to hang out with if they were a little smarter and had better water endurance.BUM said:I spent a good part of the last 3 months learning to catch, prepare and cook crabs. OMG Crab meat, stew, cakes, chowder, cocktail, etc. Very good eats!
Natures perfect food.
A shipmate of mine spent extensive time in psychotherapy after graduating from that course. But he never worried about where his next meal was coming from!REWahoo! said:If anyone posting here attended any of the military survival schools, it's not likely anyone who missed out on that "opportunity of a lifetime" will be able to measure up. Be thankful you won't.
I prefer ice water or iced beer. A month or two of those beverages and sodas just taste too sweet, something we have a hard time getting our kid to appreciate.ESRBob said:No sodas here, either, ever since reading about the evils of high fructose corn syrup in drinks last year (doubled the risk of adult-onset diabetes in 5000 Boston nurses with just 2 drinks a day -- diet drinks and real fruit drinks didn't have any negative effect, which is good for the Tab drinkers out there, I guess.)
Some of the best restaurant meals I've ever eaten were at Ardfyllane's in Dunoon, Scotland. I've never understood why the Scots, surrounded by lochs containing the world's best fish, persist in eating haggis. I think it's a gross-out contest with the lutafisk diners.ESRBob said:the most 'memorable' dish i had was haggis on robert burns night one year. (chopped up offal boiled in a little intestine pouch.) It is made somewhat more palatable by pouring single malt scotch liberally on it and eating it that way.

"Seattle-based Jones Soda has brought back its line of goofy holiday sodas, including such flavors as turkey and gravy, wild herb stuffing and pumpkin pie.."
