[net.cooks] Disgusting ideas in food. Austin Annual Spam Cook-off/out/yechhh

Can you beat this?  We have an annual event here in Austin, Tx, called

	The Annual Spam Cook-Off	(or similar)

where folks compete in making food to 'Throw Up or Away'

I cherish food too much to ever have even wanted to come close, but maybe
someone else can comment more ?  (Prentiss, have you dared ? )

Hey!  That doesn't beat the (Y?)(Eu?)reka CA annual Slug Festival.
They have a slug cooking contest, where the recipe must contain at
least one slug.  These recipes are actually judged by taste! Last year
a Banana Slug Cream Pie was entered, and as they cut into the pie,
little live slugs started popping through the whipped cream topping.
Only one judge ate a bite.  Afterwards, he said, "Pass the salt."
