      Gryffydd David It’s basically just cheap cheese spread, it’s a base of cheese with various milk solids and fats to make it emulsified and spreadable (and shelf stable).

Not that bad but I certainly wouldn’t recommend it over real cheese lol.

      I do not think anyone knows for sure. But it likely it started out with someone simply put in to little salt when trying to preserve the herring. As a result it started to slightly decompose. And rather then throw it all away the risked it.
      One story I have read said that some Swedes tried to offload some spoiled improperly preserved herring to some Fins. When coming back after a year after having sold the spoiled to the surprised the Fins asked for more. (I bet that was some reverse psychology stuff they did to lure to Swedes in the eating that crap as revenge!)

    FYI, American cheese is actually a real cheese, and it is NOT the individually wrapped singles you see called American Cheese. Those are "process American cheese food", and are not legally defined as cheese under US law. (hence "cheese food")
    Actual American cheese is made by taking an existing cheese like Colby and Cheddar and running it through the cheesemaking process AGAIN. It is ground up, mixed with an cheesemaking additives (the same ones used when making cheese), heated to 150f for 30 seconds, and then formed into a solid block. The end result is a twice-fermented cheese that is a blend between the two, which is so emulsified, it will not separate when melted. It's a medium-firm cheese, so you should be able to hold a slice of it upright without it drooping over.

But it turns out that the blue bell-end wasn't even the problem (it was erectile distinction of some kind) and blue is within the acceptable range of bell-end colours. I, having only ever seen my own, assumed that most were in the pinky/purple/red/brown spectrum depending on your racial background. But nope. Blue like a blue plum. Also yellow, white and orange bell-end colours are available.
      How the fuck a remark about blueberry's/raspberries leads on to me commenting about blue glans I don't know. But there you go. Thanks Embarrassing Bodies. When they say you can't unsee stuff, it's true.

Have a spare vessel filled with water prepared to transfer the fish quickly minimising air contact. Dispose of the salter water from the original vessel ideally away from your house & hose it down with water, you will probably need to dispose of this vessel.
    Once the fish has been in that water for some time & you think it time to eat, again transfer a portion to a bowl of fresh water, have some condiments ready, preferably bread, and eat. I have seen this being done, from what some said it was the most delicious thing ever & from what others said that it was like licking a blue whales arsehole clean.

      I tried calamari once. Woke up in the middle of the night and vomited 15+ times. I actually vomited so hard that I did something I didn't know was possible. I involuntarily screamed while dry-heaving and ended up vomiting pure bile tinted red from trying to keep my blood glucose from dropping by eating glucose tabs, which are acidic and burned the fuck out of my throat. I vomited/dry-heaved so hard I almost experienced red-out (edges of vision turn red).
      NEVER. EVER. EVER. FUCKING. EVER. EEEEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVEEEERRRR. AGAIN. EVER.

    Titanium dioxide is a white food coloring. Also, if you see a "Nutrition Facts" label like on the candy fruitcake, it's from the USA. Take it from someone who lives here. (Imported things might have the label, but you'll know if it's imported).
    King of Prussia is also an area not too far from where I live, actually. There's a mall that goes by the same name. So you're not wrong.

    One of my friends from school used to work in retail at Walmart and, out of all the years of him working there, he has never seen anyone buy that spray cheese, not a single can passed through his checkout lane.
