Food for thought.....

I have been going with the rule that " if the locals eat it......it must be ok...." Only a couple of mild doeses of the trots so its seems to be working. 

The growing list of weird and waccky stuff i have eaten so far includes: 

Boiled Pigs feet- a little stange to get in a muslim country but no matter. A little greasy but palatable enough. 

Camels milk/Yougurt- not sure which it was as it had chunks in it. Rather salty but im sure i could get used to it. 

Norwigan Brown cheese- courtesy of the crazy Finns in Baku. A bit like a cross between burnt Onions and Coon ( aussie cheese). 

Chocolate butter- Like normal butter but with chocolate in it. 

Geogian wine-Sifted through a pair of grandmas dirty nickers. Rough as guts but seemed to do the trick all the same. If you skull it like you are supposed to you cant taste the leaf residue. 

Piriniki- stable food on the road in Kazasktan. Chunky buscuits with icing on the outside. 

I sure the list will contuine to grow with the trip......
