[livejournal.com profile] tamarinne has gotten a terrible, terrible image stuck in my head: Iron Chef Klingon. Visions of live grub maki, spiny things in hot chili sauce, and poison worm phở are all well and good, but of all things sinister and repugnant to the senses, the worst must surely be whatever our Iron Chef has put in the ice cream maker...

Iron Chef Narn: How many ways can you cook spoo?

Too easy: is it really even possible to make bad spoo?

Narn don't cook spoo.

Centauri cook spoo.

I said make, not cook, but anyway I believe that both species, as well as most of the known galaxy, enjoy them prepared in a wide variety of ways.

The assertion I have seen is that Narn prefer theirs fresh, Centauri aged.

All sentient beings delight in spoo, by definition. I believe the sole exception may be the Pak'ma'ra.

But shmoo -- ah, lovely, tasty, *useful* shmoo! Worthy of helping you in the kitchen before you devour them! Why, they'll jump into the salamander for you. Now there's a good theme ingredient.

Your risotto has no honor!

"Just as the appearance and smell of food are important to a skilled chef, so are the screams it makes as it suffers."

"If memory serves me, in the Yaarg villages on the southern continent they have a colorful expression which summarizes the local approach to traditional Bat'leth Fish meals: 'clean your plate, or lose an eye'"

Whatever it is, it can't be as bad as Natto. :)

Ain't that the truth. I've eaten a lot of weird and nasty stuff, but that takes the vileness cake...

That's alright, neither can The Internet. At least, not easily. My recollection is that they usually spell it "gaH'", but I could be wrong.
