kangaroo farming

Time for the curious questions again!

Would you eat kangaroo?

Why?/Why not?

If you've eaten kangaroo meat before, what did you think?

Well, the only problem is that kosher meat can't be hunted, it has to be domesticated. Since not a lot of places are interested in keeping domesticated deer, it makes it a tad rare :D

Ah, except for deer farms, and I don't know where you are, but we've actually got a couple of deer farms down in Victoria. The only problem is, as you said, the require you to buy a whole lot (the entire animal, I imagine, if you want it done kosher) however - if you can get a few friends together to split the costs, it's all good. :)

I don't keep kosher anymore (lol as you can probably tell from my below comment) but yeah, kosher venison for a special occasion is doable. :)

I'm in the United States and AFAIK, we don't have anything quite so accessible :)

Are those hamantaschen I see before me? (small triangular biscuits made/eaten at Purim)

They look good!

Yup, those are hamantaschen. I looooove hamantaschen :) I make really good ones, although sadly this isn't a picture of mine.

Hon, I didn't even know you had a Jewish background!

*is quite intrigued*

And, ooh! I'll be down in Melbourne at the start of November for...um...a really big convention thingy. The name of which I've completely forgotten. I think it's over the first weekend in November, just before Melbourne Cup day or something.

Armageddon, perchance?

If so, I'll be going too :D

WAHEY! Definitely must meet up. (If you have enough spoons. How are the spoons, btw? I introduced the idea to a couple of friends who are having energy issues with their health and they find it immensely helpful as an explanation tool!)

Definitely!

My spoons collection is somewhat depleted atm due to stress and sickness, but I'll just have to make sure I save up a few so I can have fannish fun with you, [livejournal.com profile] deense & [livejournal.com profile] birkentree at Armageddon :)
