Lutefisk. Has to be the most disgusting thing I've ever tried to eat. Closely followed by whale liver (ordered in a restaurant due to me mistranslating the menu )

Every time someone eats Lutefisk, somewhere a norseman rolls over in his grave--laughing. And that comes from a hearty Minnesotan--the American state that actually has a Lutefisk festival annually!

In terms of the poll, we always buy a large bunch of green bananas. My wife eats them right away. I eat them when they turn yellow. Any left over become banana bread.

Surely that is details of the other banana problem.

Just another example of monoculture and it's pitfalls

On the other hand, there is already a banana distro, it is based on netBSD and sold by Microsoft.

I was thinking of launching the new RHM distro, but maybe the BPC distro is the way to go.

Of course it wouldn't be released, because of the banana problem

You would have thought someone would have come up with a Banana Linux distro, but apparently not (that I can see on Google). Well, I'm going to reserve it as a possible name for my own never-to-be-released distro.

While this topic is clearly of vast importance and clearly warrants extensive discussion, I'm afraid I've had to move it to the Off Topic forum.

But don't worry: if anyone can somehow link banana colours to the Linux world, maybe it'll go back into Discussion!

I've just had some parsnip crisps which are almost as good as roast parsnips, bananas good but horse meat should only be fed to dogs

Individually? Or is it the combination you object to?

Individually, altthough the thought of them in combination is the stuff of nightmares.

And before anyone asks, yes I have tasted them all ( but not in combination)
And found them all disgusting. (although cooked horse is quite nice, but needs careful cooking or it is quite tough.)

Other candidates for the most disgusting food ever include Brine-pickled clams, Kyoshi and Marmite.

(and no, I don't know what Kyoshi is exactly, except it apparently contained preserved plums and some sort of dried salted fish)

Anyway, shouldn't this be in the OT forum?

I used to go to school with a lad who had mashed Banana sarnines with tomato ketchup on - YUK
