"It's unusual yes, but it's completely disgusting."
Salo: By Far, the World's Grossest Snack; and the Eurovision Song Contest
Pig lard covered in chocolate, the latest thing at the Tsarkoe Selo Restaurant in Kiev. I kiddest thee not. Is it just that I be pilloried for spreading peanut-butter on green bell-peppers and eating jam-and-parmesan sandwiches when this sort of culinary horror is allowed to stalk the dark streets of World Fooddom? This is the sort of nightmare that only Latka Gravas could love, surpassing even the most disgusting subcategories of sushi that are eaten not only raw, but alive. As a Cuban (pork being, in addition to the Other White Meat, is the Official Meat of Hispanics Everywhere) and a lover of sweets, this is nothing short of blasphemy. Maybe it comes from the mind-rotting influences of the Eurovision Song Contest, which, as this article suggests, desperately needs an entry from Vatican City to raise its moral fibre. How about Ted and Doughal doing a reprise of "My Lovely Horse"?
