Maybe the Japanese would have loaned Godzilla to the Russians to help them in this matter.

Re: Flying Spaghetti Monster over Russia, 1957
this just in! a sighting in TN:
A sculpture of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the goofball deity cooked up to protest a Kansas legal battle over evolution, went on display outside a courthouse in Cumberland County, Tennessee, late last month.
Ariel and David Safdie created the sculpture, which depicts the taste-tempting god worshiped by adherents of the "Pastafarian" parody religion practiced by the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
A statement from the installment ceremony helps explain the Flying Spaghetti Monster's place in the grand debate about religion, evolution, free speech and noodle dishes:
"We are lucky enough to live in a country that allows us, its citizens, the freedom of speech. I have chosen to put up a statue of the Flying Spaghetti Monster to represent the discourse between people of all different beliefs. The many faiths, ethnicities and backgrounds of Cumberland County's residents make our community a stronger richer place.... The Flying Spaghetti Monster is a pile of noodles and meatballs, but it is meant to open up discussion and provoke thought. Being able to put up a statue is a celebration of our freedom as Americans; a freedom to be different, to express those differences, and to do it amongst neighbors -- even if it is in a noodley way."
The artists' interpretation of the Flying Spaghetti Monster sits alongside an Iraq war memorial, chainsaw-carved monkeys and a sculpture of Jesus carrying a cross, according to the Crossville Chronicle.

Not sure about the rabbit, but I'll guarantee we'll be eating lamb and probably Greek bread. I wonder if bro in law is gonna make some stuffed grape leaves... hmmmm...
Re: Flying Spaghetti Monster over Russia, 1957
yum on the grape leaves. still. greek food on easter??? i'll make a nice leg of lamb, with the shank attached. i'll hit the exterior of the lamb with a sharp knife in several spots and stuff the holes with fresh rosemary and fresh garlic. then i'll dry rub it with my highly secret rub. of course, i'll have to re-finance the house for the lamb but whatever.CarolinaHound wrote:HotParadox wrote:for easter???? the least you could do would be to have doggieboy hunt you down an innocent rabbit or equally innocent lamb, marinate it nice and roast it.Old Timer wrote:Spagett---with a one spicy a meat a ball .

Yea, my brother in law is Greek and we normally eat at their house, so they kind of combine the Greek orthodox Easter with our Easter. They do the Greek food and a ham, sometimes a turkey for some that don't like Greek food. Don't know what's wrong with those folks. The only thing I don't like is a pasta salad type thing with the pasta that looks like large rice, (can't remember the name of it now). It's too vinegary imo, which is odd, because if you've ever had Carolina BBQ, you know we kill it with vinegar.

well, being italian we have lamb or rabbit. we don't do stuff like ham although, as you know, pork is the italian national hero: salami, prosciutto, pancetta, sopresatta, capocolla, my all time favorite mortadella and all the famous fresh pork dishes are huge, but not a processed baked ham. it's akin to how we view spam over here.

We do smoked ham, the only prossecing is it's put in a smoker and slow cooked. You can buy a ham (pork leg just like a leg of lamb except...pork) already smoked and warm it up in the oven, or buy a raw ham and cook it in a smoker, I've cooked them on the grill before, but it's a lot of work keeping temp right and takes awhile. It's a long way from spam.
btw.. you got me wanting some rabbit now and the only thing in season is turkey.
Re: Flying Spaghetti Monster over Russia, 1957
i can send you a nice rabbit or two from the North End.
italians do smoked ham, too. but that's a whole different animal than american ham.

Well a corn fed, cured and hickory smoked ham from the ozarks is nothing to sneer a either. That is not the usual kind of ham you find in the store. Most folks couldn't afford to buy that kind by the pound all of the time. But your Italian meats are tops with me to.

Re: Flying Spaghetti Monster over Russia, 1957
We do it every year with a bunch of friends. We get about 3-4 campsites and everybody brings their tents and we all stay out there all weekend. We don't get all fancy, shmancy with the lamb and smoked hams like you guys. We do it poor man's style - Corona, High Life, Shiner, chicken, fajitas, ribs, grilled jalapanos, beans, and all the fixins, but we have a blast. I'll try and take pictures this weekend for y'all.

Re: Flying Spaghetti Monster over Russia, 1957
well, prosciutto is fresh pork which has been naturally smoked, yes and naturally cured. but we take a tender piece of pork, naturally smoke it-no additives period-and smoke it, (do not cure it) and then roast it. so it really is different than american cured ham. it's not cured like that. it's out of this world. but we don't eat pork on easter. no. never.CarolinaHound wrote:You talking about the smoked prosciutto? yum

???? Not sure if this is a serious question or if your being sarcastic...
But no, I'm not Wiccan. Was it the pagan reference? I just say that because there is nothing "Christian" about the modern day Easter. I don't associate myself with any religion.

That's what we call a smoked ham, it's not cured, just smoked, been known to do it with the loin, but that's not ham, it's smoked loin.

Re: Flying Spaghetti Monster over Russia, 1957
i'm telling it's different over there. they feed the pigs food that doesn't taste like ours. a farmer could explain to you why meats, grains, fruits and veggies taste different here than they do in other parts of the world. they feed the pigs grains, same grains we do, but the grains taste different than ours. for one thing they are grown in different indigenous soils than ours, and the climate is different. so the animal they have raised taste different than the same animal we have raised on our land. they smoke the pork, but they smoke it with different trees than we do. you'd have to taste it. you taste bread from france, italy, greece, america. all the same recipes but the wheats are different and the water is certainly different, and each country produces a different texture and taste from the exact same recipe. i've never tasted fruits and veggies as delicious as in italy. the cream in england is out of this world, ditto in ireland-superb. i don't know, but the ham here is not what you'd find in italy or elsewhere in europe, for that matter. you've never had lamb until you've had lamb in new zeland. just the way it is.CarolinaHound wrote:HotParadox wrote:well, prosciutto is fresh pork which has been naturally smoked, yes and naturally cured. but we take a tender piece of pork, naturally smoke it-no additives period-and smoke it, (do not cure it) and then roast it. so it really is different than american cured ham. it's not cured like that. it's out of this world. but we don't eat pork on easter. no. never.CarolinaHound wrote:You talking about the smoked prosciutto? yum
