While grouting a tiled tub enclosure,
Ben ran out -- almost lost his composure.
In the lunch his wife made
Of yogurt, Spam, marmalade,
'Twas the answer, albeit not kosher.

In a hamlet in South Vietnam,
Lived some ladies and ther madam.
They were cheap and quite easy,
But often were greasy.
They took as their payment canned Spam.

Now meat from La France I've forsaken;
I hear that dead artists they've taken
To chop, mince and feed
To the piglets they breed.
I'll refuse, if you please, France's bacon.
--- Peter Wilkins

E're the waitress jumps in with her slasher,
And creams your potatoes with masher,
This choice that you're makin'
In declining the bacon,
Just couldn't be brasher or rasher.

I've had sweetbreads from Brisbane to Sidney.
A good serving of liver
Will set me aquiver,
Just like Tom and his organ: Well, didn' he?"

"There are giblets that go in a stew,
And chittlin's appeal to a few.
You can start with some heart
And end up with the part
That's best shared just between me and you."

"The stores will no longer sell lung,
Nor cojones from a bull that's well-hung;
And there isn't much hype
About kidney or tripe,
But I truly ADORE some good tongue!"

It seems that millions of Brits,
Have become pork-pie eating addicts.
Eating one every day,
Throwing wrappers away,
So to this, they won't have to admit.
--- Anon

A good Pork Pie's a real treat;
Crusty pastry filled with meat,
Pastry lined with aspic jelly,
Puts a lining in your belly,
By gum, they're so good to eat.

A man in the great state of Texas
Drives a pickup instead of a Lexus.
He travels on wheels
Looking for some meals;
Look for Old Road Kill Bill in the nexus.
--- Liam na Beag

He was off to the town he was from,
Taking girlfriend to meet his sweet mum.
When there came a loud "THUD"
From under the hood,
And he didn't know what it was from.
--- Liam na Beag

He stopped on the road with a swirl;
When the dust cleared, he saw a dead squirrel.
He placed the dead creature
With a long-handled reacher,
In a sack which he stored in the rear well.
--- Liam na Beag

When they got to him mums house, you see,
The squirrel with veggies and tea!
You may think this one
Was just written for fun,
But the legend needs telling -- by me.

An edible glutinous type
Of ruminant stomach, is tripe,
Which slippery-slips
Down the gullet and grips
One with painful abdominal gripe.

Announced on the menu, calves' liver
Seems bound to give some folks a shiver.
Not of lust but disgust
And the chef they distrust;
My palate with joy is aquiver.
--- Ulla

I, too, enjoy liver of calf,
If sliced very thinly in half;
But tend to be wary
When offered the scary
Equivalent part of giraffe.
--- Peter Wilkins

I also enjoy the pate,
"It's LIVER, my friends cry, but hey!
I eat it up fried,
With toast on the side.
A great start, indeed, to the day.

There is no use to ask them for chutney.
You may plea, you may tease,
You may go on your knees.
It will do you no good, they ain't gotney.
--- Richard H Field

At the village emporium in Woodstock,
Of chutney they keep quite a good stock.
They're more given to gluttony
Than the folk of Ascutney
Who neither of liquors or foods talk.

Whose vision often turned blurry.
With eyes fill with tears
And steam from his ears,
He'd vow to stop eating hot curry.

Whose rapid choice you may rue,
The most urgent quest
To ease the unrest,
Is quick! And go find the loo!

By both sexes, the he's and the she's.

"In Japan are so thin it's a riot.
They never get fat
And the reason is that
They always stick close to their diet.

Those cherries aren't real - here is mousse - He
Is licking the platter! -

With Bird's Nest, just swimming in jus, see?"

Is to sear food on a very hot rock.
This technique from Japan
Can give you a tan,
So cover yourself with a smock.

Wanting curry exceedingly hot,
Chose a nice vindaloo,
With enough spice for two,
And then split, for that's just what he got.

Was eating a plateful of curry.
He cried, "It's so hot,
I shall soon need a lot
Of very cold drinks in a hurry."

My mind boggles with things I could do
As I 'curry' up favour with you.
So no chicken Korma
Things have to be warmer
How about a nice vindaloo

I see that you're eager to please,
So we can exchange recipes.
I do love a Vindaloo,
Or Paella made by you,
But curry powder makes me sneeze.

Waiter! There's straw in my soup!
And feathers, and some kind of goop.
It's saliva? A swallow?
From nests, then it follows
That this stuff is... Let's ask the group.
--- Rory Ewins

Waiter! This soup's for the birds
Quite literally. There are no words
For the sight of a nest
In a bowl; and the rest
Is disgusting! What are these things? Curds?
--- Rory Ewins

This is file fem

I won't eat Chicken Ding in Hong Kong,
Though I'm told that my reasoning's wrong.
I know that a ding
Is the name of the thing
That swings either side of a dong.

Complained of a slug in his greens.

Especially in chicken chow meins.

An ancient food caused no such flap.

Those who together
Do cook Chineses, never WOK alone.

The abundance of Chow Chows is plain;
And though it's not kind,

Or a plate full of sweet-and-sour prawn.

With young Jasmine Leaf's dress,
For Ho Fuk has a shotgun off-sawn.

I went to a restaurant Chinese
"Number seventy-two, if you please",
I said. That strange writing
Looked rather exciting,
But what did I get? Monkeys' knees...

Of entrails (or possibly noodles)
And sweet 'n' sour prawn
Balls which one could have sworn
Were the testicles (maybe) of poodles.

And said, "Have what you like on your plate;
But I won't heat the water
To brew up my daughter;
The beautiful Jasmine Leaf, mate."

Ho Fuk Yu Lychee has three daughters
Employed in his kitchen as porters;
But sweet Jasmine Leaf
Has been causing me grief
From the age of fifteen and three-quarters.

And we often have afternoon tea
In the kitchen while father
Is out and she rather
Enjoys herself sat on my knee.

My hand creeps up under her dress
And she smiles as I start to caress.
She giggles and wriggles
And constantly jiggles
Which causes me trouser distress.

And dampen her ardour and fever
Or give her a suck,
But her father Ho Fuk
Has a fucking good aim with his cleaver.

But could only just manage it twice,
And turned out such a dud
That Chrysanthemum Bud
Took to poodles; a singular vice.
