Beyond that, I was most fascinated by the diet described in the trip to Iceland. Although I've never eaten dog, I've known for years that some people do, so that part of the book wasn't a surprise. But PUFFIN burgers?? Seriously? Wow.

I was surprised that it had all basic human necessities including the luxuriant ones.

I have always found the difference between the wildlife in New Zealand and Australia to be fascinating. Although, the two countries are not nearly as close as we imagine looking at them from North America... The Japanese vending machines sound incredible!

I know, right?! Puffin burgers sound insane, but I also wouldn't partake in moose tongue if traveling through the Canadian wilderness, so exotic cuisines might be best left to the more adventurous. My palate is a bit more tame, lol.

Mine, too! Where I live, the local food that most people eat (not I!!) is cuy. Roasted cuy is considered a delicacy. At a recent fiesta, my daughter tried it just for the bragging rights to say that she had. Cuy is guinea pig. Yeah. They actually eat it. I enjoy trying new foods if they're plantbased, but I'm not an adventurous carnivore. I really got a kick out of Man Mission's descriptions of their adventurousness in eating. Not just in Iceland, but on all their trips. And how perfect was it that the two main characters became friends at a food fair! LOLAvidBibliophile wrote: ↑06 Jan 2020, 20:57I know, right?!
