foreversnow 5 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I think I am going to stick with having it raw in my salad or using it for a dipping vegetable. Haven't been able to find any with faces on yet? Link to post Share on other sites

It's the white and brown cylinders in Thursday's picture. Is it the "fishcake" part or the "potentially looks mildly phallic in larger pieces" part that bothers you? Link to post Share on other sites
