horse flesh eating...no more but when i was in almaty...the first couple of nights there..we dined on meat..i thought it was a sheep..but nope a horse..

I wonder if that is better than gunieau pig....haven't been tricked into that one but the family is trying.

yikes...!..the horse was different ..but guinea pg..just wrong merc..

Guinea pig, I'd imagine to taste something like rabbit. Yummy! Try and let me know merc!

He thinks it's very strange that I put ketchup on my pizza......

Exactly what I said before. He said "Pizza has tomato sauce, why do you put ketchup on it?" and every single time he ate pizza at my house and everyone went around passing the ketchup he'd find bizarre. And then I'd stare at him and find it awful that he'd take avocatos and slice them up to eat with his rice and beef.

The same way that everyone uses avocatos with salt to make guacamole and salads, brazilians actually like to put sugar in their avocatos and eat as a dessert, so I'd find it odd that he'd eat avocato and rice.

which reminds me....nessa thought i was strange cause i put ketchup on fish......

i did see something about pig balls. if she cooks that no kisses for her, and i'm on an instant diet

no toilets.. I could not figure how to use it and well I made a mistake

hahahaha i hear ya!! In romanian train stations they have a hole in the ground for a toilet, and there is NO porcalin (sp) around it, just a HOLE. and you have to pay for toilet paper

That they ate beans on toast for breakfast, and not being circumsized was the norm....

Mushy peas on chips. I generally love British food-- pies are amazing, and I even liked the black pudding, but I have to draw the line at mushy peas...

I LOVE mushy peas on chips! your partner must be a northerner! I'd take mushy peas over black pud anyday!

Close! Nottingham, but his parents are from Yorkshire. And I love beans on toast!

Cockles were pretty weird, though.

I guess the strangest thing that encountered was when i wanted to blow dry my hair i didn't relize the electricity sockets are different. So he fixed it by cutting the end of my blow dryer cord off and split the wires into and exposed the raw wires and stuck them in to the wall socket. I was affraid of being electricuted. He also has this same set up for and old fashioned heater. And sometimes you would see sparks come out of it. Alot of sockets had burn marks on them also.

My chubby-hubby had a hard time understanding my family, I am from Mexico, I have 3 brothers and a Dad and it was hard for him to have them around 24/7. The whole "we will take care of our daugther- sister's reputation" was very strange for him, he never understood why my dad wanted to kill him when I moved in with him without getting married!!! !, hahaha, good times good times.

Definitely not.

I remember my husband telling his coworkers he was going to have poutine that night and they were all like "OK, more then we needed to know..."

poutine pie?
