Justshirley | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 10:12 am     Here's the list of foods they got (items in [ ] were balls that they put in the tube in incorrect alphabetical order, so they don't get those items): almonds, applesauce, [angel food cake], berries, bratwurst, brie, cola, corn, cream, [chips], deli meat, dips, doughnuts, egg substitute, ground beef, guacamole, halibut, [half and half], hot dogs, italian sausage, [iceburg lettuce], lasagna, lutefisk (?), mozzarella, nectarines, refried beans, rigatoni, [rice], salmon, scampi, shrimp, [scallops], sour cream, tuna |
Hamsterlady | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 10:17 am     The Power of Lutefisk (and what it is): http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~atman/ic/lutefisk.html Edited to say: I didn't really read over the article until just now and there are a couple of 'adult' words in the article. Just so you're forewarned. |
Eliz87 | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 10:20 am     Didn't they have that in the "luau from hell" competition? |
Trinity63 | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 10:23 am     That food list sure beats the hell out of Peanut Butter and Jelly. I could make lots of stuff with that. |
Earthmother | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 10:26 am     So, do you think anyone put peanut butter on their list? |
Spear | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 10:33 am     Eliz87, you're right -- lutefisk is what Jack wolfed down in that competition. |
Jazzzy | Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:32 pm     When the comp was over and they read the remaing balls, someone found Lobster. during the comp someone found the lutefish, and asked what it is, the answer? "Jack ate it, it'll be ok" |
Happycamper | Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:37 pm     lutefisk isn't that bad. In fact, it has very little taste. Yes they say it is cured in lye ( not how it is done anymore)...but is soaked for days to remove that before eating... What are you left with? Tasteless fish!!! We pour salted butter, and a white sause over it to give it flavor. I don't care for it, but my parents always served this at christmas as part of a typical Swedish/Scanadanavian dinner. |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:39 pm     You make it sound so yummy Happy. |
Cangaroo | Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:45 pm     Nope nope nope, not gonna try it. I smelled it, I touched it and I actually put it in my mouth (but didn't swallow) and that was plenty. Sorry, I didn't do what I tell my kiddles to do (you know the line...try one bite...). And yes Hamsterlady, I was talking about lutefisk, not smelling and touching and swallowing something else, haha. |
Happycamper | Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:54 pm     They actually have Scandanavian Clubs...that hold Lutefisk (pronouced Lute-a-fisk) suppers!!! Some people really go nuts over this stuff! |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:56 pm     Have at it Happy. I'll just watch. |
Happycamper | Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:58 pm     I already told you I don't care for the stuff....but my parents made me eat it as a child. |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, August 30, 2003 - 11:59 pm     eeeeekkkkk |
Cangaroo | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:02 am     Sorry Happy. I think my kids are gonna feel the same way about kimchee. I don't make them eat it, but they gotta smell it when I eat it (let's face it, the smell is unavoidable). I think my hubby actually looks like he's choking down puke when he has to smell it, lol (the kimchee, not lutefisk). |
Zachsmom | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:02 am     isn't lye soap? or is it you make soap with lye? isn't lye bad for you? |
Cangaroo | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:03 am     Well, maybe that's why they only eat it once a year, LOL. Lye, lie, neither one sounds good. |
Happycamper | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:04 am     LOL HamsterLady!!! Needless to say...as an adult...I don't serve this to my children! LOL I serve Cabbage rolls, and (Martha Stewart) Perogies for Christmas Eve dinner. LOL Nope, we are not Ukranian.. but their food is yummy! |
Bonzacat | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:08 am     OK - we have at least two threads talking about food right now and I want to complain that you are making me hungry! Wait, sorry, that goes in yet *another* thread...  |
Happycamper | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:09 am     yes, lye....as in lye soap.... But that was done a hundred years ago... They don't make it like that anymore...my parents buy it frozen now. In fact in mylife time....it was never cured in lye. They soak it for days, to soak the lye out of it...changing the water every few hours. Again, it is not preserved like that anymore. |
Cangaroo | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:11 am     :P Happycamper had steered this one to a delicious place...you missed the middle part...that wasn't so appetizing (the lutefisk part, sorry any Scandinavians out there). The other thread was good stuff. |
Bonzacat | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:13 am     Ah, yes, the lutefisk. I'm going to dream of chorizo instead...... |
Happycamper | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:19 am     Okay...I will add...Lutefisk is GROSS!!! I spit it out the very first time I tried it...and the smell while it is cooking??!!! OMG....dirty sneakers would have been more appetizing! |
Cangaroo | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:27 am     Aw shucks Happy...the thread was in a good place!!!!! But, I will add, kimchee smells nearly as bad (think pickled cabbage and you'll understand). Now, back to chorizo and perogies...YUM. |
Happycamper | Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 12:35 am     I supsect Jack has been "exposed" to lutefisk in his life time. Like I have mentioned before Lutefisk is quite common throughout the Scandanavian culture. (that was basically my intension on filling you all in in my experience) |
