personally I have never tried it, and unless I have it unknowingly I will probably never try it. I ate no meat except chicken and fish before we moved here, but it is pretty impossible to eat out sometimes, the 'vegetarian' pizza or salad have usually got ham on, so I have learnt that I quite like a little ham now and then....but I don't go for gesiers or veal or anything like that......usually take the fish option if there is one.
Went for aperos at someone's house once, and they were dishing out andouillettes....hideously horrid sausage which was cold and white, I managed a slice.....downed my awful sweet wine (which was immediately topped up)and out the corner of my eye, saw my hubby grinning like a cheshire cat.
We took some friends back to bergerac airport a few weeks back, I bought bottles of water for their journey (costs a fortune on the plane) but they weren't allowed to take them on board......wondered why there were loads of bottles lined up outside by the bin :roll:. Hope flying works out better for you John, it is a long drive.
