Since we were throwing a birthday party complete with me cooking most of the day yesterday, I did not have time to post a strange food gallery for the Countdown To Halloween. Here is list of some truly strange foods from Britain!
 |
| Toad In The Hole |
 |
| Rumbledthumps |
 |
| Cornish Yarg |
 |
| Actual cockles are a type of shellfish (also eaten in the UK), but these "cockles" are actually mints. |
 |
| "Winkles" or Periwinkles |
 |
| Stottie Cake (dipped in gravy it becomes a "Stottie Dip.") |
 |
| Stargazy Pie |
 |
| Yes it's made from blood. It's good, especially fried in bacon fat! |
 |
| Lucky Tatties, a type of biscuit (that's cookie to us here in the US) |
 |
| Laverbread--it's made from seaweed |
 |
| Jellied Eel |
 |
| Sussex Pond Pudding |
 |
| Hevva Cake--it's from Cornwall, which is actually a Celtic region. |
 |
| Did you know that people from Liverpool are known as "Scoucers?" Well this stew, called Scouse, is where the name comes from. |
