  1. In the images from Internet Archive Books, the Chocolate Worm Cakes, Googling the three ingredients, are apparently for deworming humans.

  2. It was like three lifetimes ago when I
    first had chop suey. It was mostly a
    weekend thing when no one wanted to
    cook. Terrible doesn't begin to describe
    it. I remember this gluttonous gray mass
    of - whatever (it wasn't La Choy of La
    Choy makes Chinese food! fame either.
    Which was just as bad. But I digress.).

    And all those water chestnuts which to
    this day, the purpose of which I still
    do not understand. This would have been
    the 1960s. And so ended my relationship
    with Chinese food. Until the early 80s
    when I reluctantly agreed to going in on
    a lunch buffet at work one day. Szechuan
    beef. Which to this day remains my
    favorite Chinese meal and marked the start
    of my healthy relationship with the cuisine.

    It's still on the menus of course and I'm
    always looking to try something new. But
    every time I see it and think should I give
    it a go? - Nope. Can't do it. Maybe back
    then we really were having entrails or
    something. I dunno. . .
