It's nice to have confirmation that when I tell someone to "eat a bowl of dicks" I have, in fact, instructed them to do something extremely unpleasant. posted by louche mustachio at 12:48 AM on August 9, 2008 [1 favorite has favorites]
I'd pay to see someone like Garry Bushell or Richard Littlejohn saying something like this on TV:

I've got a great idea for a MeFi game. We could all see how many Wumpus's posts we can flag and the first one to identify something deleteworthy would be the winner.
The real tragedy here is that Blazecock Pileon didn't post this. It could have been eponysterical. posted by Joey Michaels at 1:08 AM on August 9, 2008
that's odd, there was no advert when i went there, pracowit. maybe my adblocker stopped it, or maybe you have your tv on. anyway, great summary! posted by wumpus at 1:28 AM on August 9, 2008
This reminds me of seeing Calvin Trillin years ago on Johnny Carson talking about being in a restaurant in Taiwan or Hong Kong. He saw "twice boiled deer penis" on the menu and almost ordered it, but he knew if he ordered it that he'd simply take one look at it and say to the waiter, "I think you better take that back and boil it again." posted by cropshy at 2:07 AM on August 9, 2008
Because the kitchen ran out of pussies an hour ago, so it's penises or arseholes. And there's more meat on a penis. posted by PeterMcDermott at 4:07 AM on August 9, 2008 [3 favorites has favorites]
Isn't this the whole premise of Andrew Zimmer's _Bizzare Foods_? Go around he world doing a sort of Fear Factor thing? Will he eat a bug? A sheep's brain? A cow's anus? posted by fixedgear at 5:19 AM on August 9, 2008
Sheep's brain is not bad, as long as we're on the topic, cooked in a coconut milk and turmeric sauce. posted by BinGregory at 6:27 AM on August 9, 2008

Eating a creatures sex organs should be considered a sign of madness. posted by nola at 7:24 AM on August 9, 2008
The next video, "Should athletes eat penis?" made me wonder...how long will it be before careers are put in question over the use of its enhancing properties? What length should be the cutoff?
These are important questions... posted by samsara at 7:32 AM on August 9, 2008
Big deal. There are penises all over my living room carpet, in various degrees of devourment.
By all evidence, they are apparently delicious. posted by Lou Stuells at 7:39 AM on August 9, 2008

Actually I think it's the other way around. I think it's madness to take a living thing, kill it and then dice it up into edible and inedible sections. You've killed the thing, what difference is there really between this piece of dead flesh and that piece of dead flesh?
Look at Chinese food, you take a duck, chicken, pig, shrimp, cow, slice it up and put some "sweet'n'sour" sauce on it and you've got a best selling dish. What's so unusual about throwing a testical or brain in the same sauce?
I watch Bizarre Foods religiously because I find it fascinating that there are so many different kinds of tasty looking foods out there. Being raised in the US and having so many processed foods around it's hard to think that a tarantula might be as good as a chicken wing or that caterpillars fried in butter and garlic are just as delicious as shrimp.
God forbid you make me try any of that stuff though. posted by M Edward at 11:48 AM on August 9, 2008
Let me refraise then; if you've got meat to eat why the hell eat wang? posted by nola at 12:26 PM on August 9, 2008
There sure are a lot of stereotypical white people under this thread.
If an aversion to chowing down on a steaming hot plate of extra crispy donkey dick makes me a stereotypical white person, then bring on the gated community and Pat Boone records. posted by DecemberBoy at 12:59 PM on August 9, 2008 [5 favorites has favorites]

The Japanese have been having a laugh at whitey for ages. You've been happily eating their beef teriyaki, while all along they've been serving you marinated whale anus, which is something no Asian would eat. posted by illiad at 1:10 PM on August 9, 2008
whale anus is a East Tennessee delicacy, so there Japan! You can also get pig brains in a can 'round here, but I won't touch 'em. posted by nola at 1:47 PM on August 9, 2008

There are foods that one should eat only as a food of last resort. Bodily organs that process and expel waste should be among the shunned. posted by five fresh fish at 10:25 PM on August 9, 2008
kidney < liver < anus < penis < a nice juicy steak, because hey, you're not a starving peasant.
Much the same goes for spiders, although that's more my own prejudice showing, given I'll happily chow down on crab. Bugs are a rational foodstuff compared to kidneys. posted by five fresh fish at 10:27 PM on August 9, 2008
