she thought it was brick :ross:
 
There are some obvious classics ... spotted dingdong, the French cock in wine.

I have the cookbook Unmentionable Cuisine by Calvin Schwabe. It has some really weird stuff using strange animals and body parts.

E.g. stuffed calf's eyes (p24), boiled locust with rice (p368), roasted palmworms with orange juice (p370), roasted cockchafer grubs in paper (p371) or a choice of how to use sea urchin gonads (p359)


books
 
The gonad of the sea urchin is actually the part you usually eat even though it is advertised as sea urchin on the menu, it is like eating roe and is also sometimes described as such. Oh well enough of the sea urchin biology class, I'm off to cook!
 

Even if this wasn't a disgusting food practice, how is there a market for a placenta cookbook except for novelty purposes? Not like many people will be seeing more than 2 placentas in their lifetime, unless there is a secret market for the ones that parents don't want to eat. Makes me feel sick.

It is a practice with very sound science behind it (though of course the cooking bit is somewhat bizarre), the placenta contains masses of vital minerals, amino's, vitamins etc, animal's naturally do it to replenish after labour, I've watched Horses, Cows, Goats do it when I was young, never saw them needing a counselor after!

It is a key to avoid post natal depression, the mother becomes highly depleted and then supplies further nutrients whilst breast feeding which leads to depression, IMO.

I'd get my wife to do it if I could, but think she may have other ideas when the time comes! Guess she will be having copious amounts of Kelp/Molasses etc instead.

Agreed though, the thought of it is pretty gross.
 
Didn't some footballers start getting some treatment involving placenta? Possibly RVP?

Edit: yes ...

Robin van Persie, Arsenal's explosive striker who was crocked in an international match between Holland and Italy at the weekend, is to be treated by a Serbian alternative therapist who will massage placental fluid from a horse into his injured ankle.

...

What Kovacevic actually does to the players once they're flat out on the treatment table in front of her is a closely guarded secret. "I am going to receive treatment from a female doctor," van Persie announced earlier this week. "She is vague about her methods but I know she first massages you for a long time with placenta fluid. I'm going to give it a try. It can't do any harm and if it helps it helps."

Jamie Redknapp adds some insight ...

As Jamie Redknapp reveals today in his column in the Mail, footballers have always been desperate to chase any miracle cure that can help prolong their careers: "I had a passport stamped with unlikely destinations that were filled with promises. I went to France, where I travelled with a knee injury and the osteopath wanted to take my wisdom teeth out. Apparently, it is to do with clear pathways around your body. I went to Germany to see Hans Muller-Wohlfahrt, who specialises in injecting extracts of ****erel crest into your knee."
