Re: Your Favorite Foods...What you like to eat
My wife's cousin normally uses his old grill all the time. I guess when you are so used to using some tool, it's kind of hard to switch. Even if the new one is better, you just don't want to face the frustration of climbing up the learning curve.
Uh, the NFL season... only 2 1/2 months away...

Nothing beats a hot spicy big bowl of noodles in the morning!
BBQ Pork? No goose? No Babi/Lechon/Roasted pork?

Re: Your Favorite Foods...What you like to eat
Well folks , youve talked about the regular food you like eating, but just for a change, remember that should you ever be visiting NZ you must attend the Hokitika Wild food Festival in March where things such as Possum pies, HuHu grubs, Owl udders, Chatham Island Seagulls. Paua (abalone) titties, Bull Lamb and Goat testicles, Gorse Flower Wine, Garden Snails, and Magpie pies, are there in abundance for you to chomp on and appeal to Chinese taste buds.

Chinese aren't THAT exotic...... We eat like the French, Vietnamese, and the Thai.... but bugs arent as big as people claim......
Possum Pie? Sounds more like something from the South.... American South. That's one thing I'd try.
Seagulls......nope. I'd do pigeon but seagulls seeing their characteristics...nah. Just nah.
One thing though, what is Vegemite? Is it like hummus?
If there is anything I want from NZ, it's the jade.....
(Any sort of curse like the Hawaiian
islands?)

Re: Your Favorite Foods...What you like to eat
What do you mean Chinese aren't all that exotic, When I was in China last year I got served up snake, and just referring to the back of a photograph I took, something called Yu tool/ (fish stomach lining?) or it might have been Sein Tool, is that eel stomach plus the usual chicken feet and gizzards stuff.
There's Vegemite and Marmite. Both are yeast extracts. Marmite is animal based while vegemite is pretty self explanatory. Dark brown in colour they do have an unusual taste. I don't mind either but usually in a club sandwich with lettuce and cheese. At one time Sanitarium came out with a product called Brufax, which was a light flaky a substance which had a taste not unlike the both mites.
NZ Jade is referred to as Greenstone. The indigenous peoples folklore has it that acquisition is through a gift, but should you purchase it for yourself you must wash it or bad luck will befall you.

Re: Your Favorite Foods...What you like to eat
Are they wafer thin? I remember a neighbour giving me something like that. The ones he gave me were from Hong Kong and had a distinctive wrapping in green red or orange paper. I used to think they were much nicer than the wafers at communion. Although I hadnt had them for decades I came across something that looked like them called haw faw cakes or something. They came from China and didn't seem as nice, but then I was trying to relate it to a taste of many decades ago.
