Analysis of Delicacies Worldwide
Insect juice and larva sauce make a crock of soup
Soggy gunk and sappy dross make a bowl of goop
Feline tail and bovine tongue make a can of spam
Liver bile and beetle dung make a jar of jam
Gizzard tips and tartar steak make a dish of muck
Emu eggs and garter snake make a tray of yuck
Pigeon wings and conger eel make a vat of mush
Fusty gills and harbor seal make a tub of slush
Rooster eyes and rabbit feet make a sack of nuts
Canine ribs and sugar beet make a case of guts
Putrid waste and bloody spill make a glass of brew
Carrion and roadside kill make a flask of spew
