This is the way l like to consume my heavy metal. The texture is like that of lead but with a brilliance unmatched by that baser metal. As it passes over the tongue one feels a sense of privilege and wonderment. I wonder how many toothless prospectors labored so that I could eat this end product of their efforts. Sort of a waste but considering the tiny amount of it, what we throw away in just one year of appliances, unwanted toys and packaging is more of a waste. I wonder if there is some other planet with a core made not of iron like our earth but one of pure gold?https://bipstravelblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/ana_meal-3.jpgana_meal (3)From the top, O-sake from a mountain brewery run by four family members on an island two islands South of the main one. Seaweed the texture of slimy spinach which has spoiled in the fridge (in reality that is not a bad thing). Me thinks it has a lot of iron and is quite pleasant. Pickled veggies with fish in a sort of vinegar sauce. The photo below features the largest dish here close up.https://bipstravelblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/ana_meal-2.jpgana_meal (2)I cannot even describe what each item of the meals was. I think the item in the foreground was a sashimi mix in a little quiche crust. First behind was some sort of cured meat wrapped around some (?).
