Therefore...... Caucasion Shashlik.

Actually, it's one of the few appetizing recipes on those Weight Watcher cards

IIRC, I think it was for 2000.

People brought their favorite (or most bizarre) dishes from their childhood.

We vowed to bury them forever, but it was hilarious.

Aspic!

In head cheese I think the gelatin is a natural byproduct of the way the make it.

I'm not sure we need more details than that, lol.
