Pickled Eggs, Anyone?

I haven't tasted pickled eggs yet, but I have a very strong feeling that the first time I do they'll taste horribly bad. When I say horribly bad I mean two orders of magnitude more horrible than eating a piece of your own liver. Which has been rotting in the sun for 12 hours. And a dog peed on it 4 hours ago.

So today as I was having my breakfast, that surprisingly didn't even include eggs in any shape or form, I wondered how would be the experience of eating my first pickled egg? Is it possible it could be as horrible as I think? And if it was, will I be happy with my newly acquired skill of predicting the taste of a food? Or would I be traumatised by the thought that a rotten piece of my liver that has been peed on would have probably tasted much better than what I just ate? What if I actually liked it? How would I be able to look myself in the eye everyday and tell myself that I can't possibly eat a rotten piece of my liver? I misjudged pickled eggs, didn't I?

afoda said...

gimme that you worthless piece of rotten liver with dog pee!

Fesh said...

Okay.. okay.. down boy.

*Fesh hands the pickled egg to aku.

So what do you think? Got you convinced to try it, han? Do you think I should get into the lucrative pickled eggs business and become their spokesman?

afoda said...

TOTALLY DUDE, are you kidding... pickled eggs for the win!

if I were you, I'd quit my full time posh job and go for it... put all your savings behind it, ditch all other plans and start the "Fesh's Big Egg" store chain!
(also spelled as Fesh 's a Big Egg)

Fesh said...

well.. it is a good plan indeed... but I can't help but feel you are messing with me... is the name a play on the words?

afoda said...

please refer to your earlier post dated 10th of April

Shouldn't it be "Fesh's Drama Queen Eggs" then?

Munqy said...

They're horrible, don't try them.

Fesh said...

Yes, but are they more horrible than a peed-on, rotten human liver?

Munqy said...

Probably, yes.

Fesh said...

Damn it... now I want to try it more!

Deeeeeee said...

LMAO @ the comparison!

ok, i was trying to observe silently, but this got to me.

may i ask what provoked these very enlightening thoughts about pickled eggs, and rotten liver with pee? just curious.

Fesh said...

The mind of the Fesh works in mysterious ways....

madwomaninatic said...

interesting...why "pickled" and how do you pickle eggs?

(and hey, you didn't check out my blog when I shamelessly promoted it a couple of days ago! yes, it may seem a bit extreme, but i am trying to draw attention to myself, at least until i have a regular readership)

I give you:

And I did man, but as you can see my level of intellect is below... way below deep philosophical posts. That I leave to you :)
