My fiance just told me that she's going to prepare marshmallows and hot dogs on a stick for a party; but don't be misguided into thinking seperate sticks as I did, because you'd be wrong.

Is she mad? Or is this Filipino thing?

Are the marshmallows in a bun with mustard then I'd say shes mad? Otherwise I'd be up for trying most things with the possible exception of balut. NOWAY.

But it sounds kinda fun to roast by the fire at night with many parents and kids. Typical Filipino community. Sounds great fun.

Was tricked into eating Balut when I was a naive 17 year old cadet on cargo ships with a Philippine crew who decided to get me drunk on San Miguel and Fundador. Started with Kinilaw and fried chicken feet, before being dared onto eating Balut. Never ever ever again!

Tried a lot of things once, but many things I won't try again.

They're ALL mad !!!!!!!! (only joking....)

I am amazed when my wife loves to eat big pieces of animal fat which actually makes me shudder if I look, when we Brits have (mostly) been scared off.

I do remember my Nan making dripping "butties" with salt and pepper on as a kid. Tasted delightful then, not sure I would have a go now though.

Her and I have very different ideas of Children's Parties... My idea of a BBQ and Jelly n Ice Cream just doesn't cut it.

With regards the Balut, I don't recall the taste, I think it was more the texture which sobored me up rather quickly. Felt a lot bigger then it was, and I really don't know how I didn't vomit.

That's just marshmallows and hotdogs. No biggy. Try to go around Philippines and you will find more foods that you will be asking, " Is that fit for consumption?". Well they are and a lot of them are yum yum. Besides, I don't think marshmallows and hotdogs on a stick originated in the Philippines, it might be from the US of A.

Yes i agree, it's possible, coz Philippines is an american colony, so i guess some of our ways and practices we got from them and were influenced by them i suppose.
