An Aspic

This week's bizarre food is one that i saw from one of my favorite movies: "Julie & Julia" directed by Nora Ephron and staring Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. Based on two true stories.
Watching this movie always brings me so much "joy" with its scenes of laughter and jokes its a movie one can easily just enjoy. 


ANYWAYS back to the bizarre food... an ASPIC 


Not an aspect nor and asset, but an aspic is a "jelly made with meat or fish stock, usually set in a mold and used as a garnish" well thats what the dictionary at least says in my personal opinion from what i seen from the movie and other lovely pictures to me it looks like a beef jello mold. It gives me shivers of the idea of jello plus beef equal actual food for people to eat. 



The red food like "thing" on the plate is an aspic...well an aspic that has fallen apart.



This is an aspic that hasn't fallen apart! and is made with spam chunks yahhhh not going anywhere near a spam aspic haha.

If you don't find beef and jello put together bizarre, well all i can say is...what is bizarre to you? and please share I'm curious :D
