Are You Going to Eat That?

Guest who's back? Me! Bloody hell it's me. I'm back from a long few weeks of book marketing, article writing, and traveling like crazy. I don't suppose it will do me any good to ask if you missed me? Of course you didn't. You've been busy reading other people's blogs. Well guess what? I vow to win you back. Notice if you will a few new changes beginning with the new title of my blog. I could be wrong, but I'm guessing you've read all over the internet my recent press release with this very title.

If you haven't already figured it out, the above blog title, also happens to be one of the titles in my new book, It's Only Dinner "Dining for Love Romance & Relationships." But enough about that for the moment. I have several wonderful new thoughts and tips to share with you concerning relationships, dating, sex, marriage, dining, and finding love and so much more. I hope as you read this blog you won't get to angry with me and or sick, just reading this, because I really have a great deal to share with you and I'm sure you'll find it all most interesting.

In my recent Press Release regarding the Top 25 Foods To Eat Before You Die, I was abit of a sneak, becuase I never mentioned the foods. I wanted to save that little surprise for the here and now. There are obviously many foods out there most of which many people have never heard of before, and just from the sound of it, many people would never try.

Having lived in 22 countries around the world I simply can't imagine life without some of the foods I'm about to mention. But remember, I'm a Chef so of course I would say that.

To better help you understand why I've chosen the foods you'll see listed here, I thought it would be good if I explained a few details before hand. In India where I use to live, there's a science known as Ayurveda. This science of life prescribes living the healthiest way possible, and before you start to think it has nothing to do with you and your life stlye, I will further convey that this science is branching out to posh London restaurants and alternative medical approaches in the united States.

For centuries , Indians based their natural diets on individual temperament (swabhav) and body type (prakriti), as well as their age and profession. The practice of ayurveda, composed of the two words ayus (life) and ved (science), was a preventive measure against disease and sickness.

In London, ayurvedic concepts are popular for restaurant menus, and in South Africa and Maylaysia, among others. The four basis taste in the Western foods are: sweet, sour, salty and bitter. However, Indian foods include these as well as chilly and astringent tastes. All dishes are prepared keeping these elements in mind, including all six tastes in a day's worth of meals, if not all in one meal.

Typically, meals according to ayurveda begin with salty and sour foods, progressing to chilly, astringent and bitter foods and ending with sweet. More on Ayurveda in my next blog article. For now I think its time to share with you just a few of the Top 25 Foods to eat before you die, and here they are:

Balut
This Filipino delicacy is a fertilized egg that is incubuted until a duckling develops,
and then soft-boiled and eaten.

Durian
A acquired taste-- and smell durian is a large, spiny green fruit from South East Asia
with a dense skin that protects a creamy center that some swoon over and some find
putrid. Durian has such a distinctive odor (it bloody stinks/sewer like is the most
common description) that its been banned on public transportation in some countries.

Fufu
A West African dish made of pounded yam formed into slmy balls, fufu is served with
meat stew or any dish with sauce or gravy.

Fugu
Dozens of people in Japan die each year from eating this blowfish, which has an organ
containing a toxin so deadly that only specially licensed chefs are allowed to prepare
it for people to eat.

The above foods are just a few of my Top 25 Foods to Eat Before You Die. Perhaps you'll come back to read more and learn more about these foods. I can assure you that they are very interesting, and some you may have never heard of before.

As this blog is about building relationships, think about these somewhat strange foods, as new and interesting opportunities to a magical moment in time you've yet to experience. Who knows where it will lead.

Embrace and Enjoy!
