Perhaps, my good man, if they were the brains of some damn frenchman then I would concur, that our hardy north western cheese would, no doubt, as you say, overpower the taste. However, good honest, English, brains, fullsome of flavour and stout of fettle could only be enhanced with a mature cheese of flavour, sir.xc wrote:A Lancashire Sir? A Lancashire?

Ahh... I may have been remiss in not offering Port as the accompaniment to the frontal lobe and fromage banquet.

That you would even suggest the idea of dining upon French brains shows your lack of breeding Sir.

Re: Pride and Prejudice... and Brain-Eating
I find this deeply offensive, as if Jane's been tortured, raped, strung up naked to let the vultures pick out her eyeballs and peck out her entrails.
must everything be sullied, is nothing sacred?
Now I know how Republicans feel when the rest of the world makes fun of Rush Limbaugh.
It’s absolutely tasteless, I'm horrified by the whole thing. I'm reminded of my first experience with fan fiction, having no idea what (or who) was coming, I started reading a story about Captain Picard and Wesley....

well, birthday present dilemma solved for one person at least.

Re: Pride and Prejudice... and Brain-Eating
My uncle sent me a report yesterday saying this book is great... I was hoping to get it for my birthday, but as I didn't I'll have to go get myself a copy now, as I'm dying to read it.

In places, it's very subtle, in others very overt. I think it's a fantastic idea and I hope they do more. "Sense and Sensibility and Vampires" perhaps, or "Oliver Twist and the Werewolf".
