Jerk chicken is the shit.revbob wrote: ↑03 Apr 2021, 10:52pmYeah that sounds good. We did a vacation in Jamaica a few years back and there was a guy who would bring a cart down to the beach he would cook the chicken, rice and beans in the morning and then show up for lunch every day and it would be sold out in less than an hour it was so damn good.RockNRollWhore wrote: ↑03 Apr 2021, 10:46pmThere's this Caribbean place near me open until like 3 am. 3 pieces of jerk chicken and a heaping serving of beans and rice for 5 dollars.

Re: What Are you Eating Right Now?
I think I ate jerk chicken like 3 times a day the week I was in Jamaica.
That sounds like I had it breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but it would be more accurate to say I had three separate jerk chicken lunches in addition to regular breakfasts and dinners.

Sadly jerk chicken isn't really an option around here. We tried a new Caribbean place that opened recently and it was a disappointment.

Re: What Are you Eating Right Now?
I got an embarrassment of jerk riches here in Birmingham. I had some mutton goat curry just on Friday.

As well you should have. Everyone knows that vacation eating doesn't count.

Re: What Are you Eating Right Now?
Back in the early 1970s, the US experienced a dramatic spike in the price of beef (can't recall the reasons), which, not surprisingly, led to a number of immediate responses. More people started eating poultry for their meat, some went meatless (there are suggestions that vegetarianism got a real kickstart from this event), and some returned to eating horse meat. It was startling how quickly the taboo—that eating horse was for lesser people—was dropped.

Re: What Are you Eating Right Now?
Little fact I learned recently in a deep dive into Icelandic sagas: when Iceland was officially converted to Christianity in AD 1000, one of the rules that was enacted was the banning of eating horse meat in public, because that was seen as a pagan practice.
Like all pagan practices for a while after the conversion, it was still technically legal, you just couldn't do it in public.

Re: What Are you Eating Right Now?
I think horse meat is actually banned in the UK. I had some about 20 years ago when I tried these sausages in a shop I was working in at the time. It wasn't until I read the ingredients after eating them I saw there was horse in them. I alerted the manager who didn't seem to give a fuck.
