So there I sat with the Sunday Times, perusing the Week in Review section
with the zeal of a female dentist parting an average lecherous female
patient's jaws for the very first time, and discovering...the remnants of
several noteworthy foods in an article by Eric Asimov.  There were the
obligatory eyeballs and calf testicles as well as rooster coxcombs,
squirrel brains, baked bats, lamb tongues, and broiled puppies.  And there
were the comments of adventurous eater Andrew F. Smith, author of "The
Tomato in America," who has been known to indulge in the occasional prairie
oyster but--get this--"does draw the line at the durian, a spiked,
football-shaped fruit popular in Southeast Asia that is so famously stinky
that Singapore, for one, prohibits slicing them open in public places." 
The oft-and-arguably-unfairly maligned durian has the dubious distinction
of being the only non-animal product in the article to be cited as
revolting.

But no mention of cacophagy and those wretched English candies.

gynecologists)
