Feeling Hungry?





Yeah, me too! Especially since I've spent the last few minutes researching the following delightful delicacies. Let's start with "Meat Water," a brand of "high efficiency survival beverages" that comes in flavors such as dirty hot dog, beef stroganof, Texas BBQ, and escargot. (Shown above: Hungarian gulash) Loaded with protein--and fat--these energy drinks supply all the nutrients you need to develop a wide range of chronic heath disorders. Check out their website here.




Not a big fan of meat? How about some Japanese giant hornet honey? It may look disgusting, but according to edible.com, giant hornets (the largest species of wasp in the world) contain special enzymes in their bodies which are reputed to increase strength and energy levels. Apparently Japanese atheletes consumed the enzymes before taking part in the 2000 Olympic games. (Hmmm. That seem a little unfair.) Be sure to check out the other delectible products for sale on the edible.com website. (The mopani worms made my mouth water. And the giant toasted ants? To die for!)

And last but not least, a cake so disgusting I can't even bear to post a picture. Described as a "delicious treat for a classy dinner party," the cat litter cake looks remarkably similar to the real thing. I don't recommend leaving it out on the table if you share your home with felines. Instructions and pictures posted here.

I'd actually be willing to try the hornet honey.
But I'm of two minds about the MeatWater. It could be good, maybe even revolutionary, for people on clear fluid diets. On the other hand, dirty hot dog as a flavour and a soft drink tasting like GOULASH... that's just gross.

The first one looks like vitamin water. Weird.

Ew! That Vitamin Water looking stuff (which I have named Meatamin) is in my eyes the equvilent of meat paste (which I hate)!

Gross but likeable. Why do all 'speacial drinks' look like each other. I have seen a couple of drinks that have the same look( the label) if you know what I mean.

Do they sell veggie water?

Kitty said...

I agree with Spring. It does look like vitamin water.

Oh my gosh! It's the same design of VitaminWater!

Maybe it's supposed to be broth to be heated up.


And the bees!!!!!! That is horrible!
