just had me some delicious whale beef, best I have tasted in years.

I'd like to try it...

You might try buying some from native tribes in Alaska who have permission to hunt whales.

I hear it tastes like manatee meat, is that true?

Whale BEEF eh? Yup... You're a true GLPer alright!


Lol! Nice one Moran.

More like porpoise, actually...

Caught that, did ye?

LOL

Yes, beef. You know that whales are mammals?

Yes Scooter...We are aware of that...

BUt calling whale meat 'beef; is akin to calling venison, pork, or goat meat 'beef'...

MmmKay?

We probably have different meanings of the word. Here is a great recipe:

Ingredients (for 4 persons)

ca. 600 g whale beef in thin slices
1 1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
8-10 soup spoons finely chopped herbs (various)
butter (for the frying)
caviar (for decoration)
fried potatoes
green salad, small tomatoes

How to prepare

1) Mix pepper, salt and herbs and marinate the slices of meat in this mix just before frying

2) Fry the slices in butter in the pan; approximately 1 minute on each side

Decorate with caviar, serve with fried potatoes and salad.

Dont tell me you ate your wife ?

Don't get it?

Same reaction I had when I ordered Ostrich for the first time. It was insanely delicious.

Funny looking birds that tastes great ;-). Huge omelettes!

If it's anything like dugong meat, it's uber-fatty, fishy, pork.

Don't get me started on green sea turtle...

No, nothing like that. Very tender meat.

Despicable!!!

Always good to be educated, what would be the right word to use?

There are many different meanings of words in other regions of the world that you will not find in a dictionary. Add to that the fact that he's likely translating and many times a a similar word, but one that doesn't fit the target language, is used.

You're acting like an ignorant fool.

Please elaborate.

The fat layer is called 'blubber'...The muscle tissue is simply called Whale Meat, unless you want to get all esoteric and learn Inuit or Japanese...

I assume you call Caribou meat "Beef", do ye Claude?

That's probably a big part of your problem, assuming too much. I guarantee OP's English is far superior to your Norwegian. At least you showed some class in explaining yourself, despite the initial douchebag commentary.

Yuck...
Theres something intuitively wrong about eating intelligent mammals meat. Everything from cats and dogs, to whales and dolphins.

Whale meat can be a hundred different dishes. Maybe whale steak?

Now cows, they are not intelligent.

Love the mix of metric and apothecary measure. Obviously you don't know the difference between types of measure, so it's no surprise you call whale meat, beef. Retard.

It's the interweb...GLP on top of that...

Lighten up, Francis...
