    Some say it is best enjoyed with a hearty Merlot.

    Gehrig:
    And thank you for contributing nothing!
    It's a news item.
    We consume news.
    And some just happen to consume placenta.

    And they're worried that semen tastes like battery acid? That's a protein pack right there.

    Again, it's not the taste. [/Jones]

    That being said, thanks for saving me money on lunch, 3OF.

    Yummy. I can't think of anything more disgusting. What a weird fad.

    I don't think it's a fad. I'd heard of it years ago. Still gross to me though.

    Yeah, this has been around for some time. It's just spreading from the realm of the profoundly crunchy to broader awareness.

    I would think a white wine more appropriate.
