yep, kinda like cottage cheese. on its own its horrid, however, with a touch of water and some orange options, all mixed in, it is like a thick orange chocolate mousse. you do not taste the cottage cheese itself really.
full of protein as well. :]

[goldilocks]

anything gingery with anything cheesy
i.e - ginger cake with blue cheese, ginger biscuits with philladelphia

marmite and peanute butter sandwiches

and i don't think this is particuarly strange (jasper does) but i love mozzarella, by itself :O

I have a certificate for eating a raw leek and drinking a flagon of ale on St Davids day.

Ummm, I suppose mine aren't too bad, I used to like banana and treacle sandwiches, putting butter between two digestive biscuits and eating them like a sandwich.

Apple sauce with fish (the Dutch do this too apparently)
Melted chocolate, sugar and peanut butter coating on cakes
Tomato, pepper, red onion sandwiches (mmmm, kiss me if you dare!)
Beef, ham, chicken, cheese, apple, salad, mushroom manwiches!

God, no wonder im diabetic

Haha! At worst you could call it a filter I guess. It produces bile to aid digestion, breaks down nutrients, and processes insulin. It also does something with glucose and protein but I forget what - something to do with metabolism.

Full of vitamin A and iron is liver - yum!

So you don't like steak and kidney pie either? Damn I'm hungry.

I think you will find its the Islets of Langerhans (sp) that produce insulin. Something mine doesn't do

and if I remember biology correctly, the liver stores glycogen and synthesises plasma protien.

I think you need to bath a liver in milk before you can eat or cook it? Speaking of which, liver tastes best when eaten with some fava beans and a nice bottle of Chianti

By processes, I meant it breaks it down - I had no idea what produced it! Now I do! Sounds like a classic trick pub question - 'Where are the Islets of Langerhans?'.

Exactly the same here!

Funny you should mention that, but thats exactly how I know.
