It's their staple diet!

Like all lists - totally subjective.

When Sushi can get to No4 we are all doomed !

My fish and chips with Nookies mushy peas was a treat

I think Massaman is overrated (again an opinion!) - it seems more Indonesian/Indian than Thai to me.


This will no doubt be the catalyst for SDK to start a "What's on your plate" thread !

Coffe corner your half right about the masaman, it means muslim curry, cause it came from the arab traders long time ago

Red, I think all Thai women would say somtam lol
But masaman can't believe it, it's good al-right but x me Indian curries piss all over Thai curries.
And how many people round the world eat masaman anyway?
You would think chilli con carne or, spaghetti bol would win before masaman
It's a fix by a Asian betting syndicate .
Thats what I think

I'm fond of Som Tam myself, but I really like that "Goy" (I don't know how to spell it).
the first night when we come over on our holidays my Father-in-law always calls over the Uncles, brothers, etc. and makes this for all of us (I buy the beer/whiskey, of course).  First time I  saw it I was waiting to see them cook it right up until the point when they handed it to me in a bowl, .. Raw !!.
It's Raw beef, the cow's stomach, with Chilli's, spring onions, some black stuff in a bag (stomach fluid ?), blood (i think), lime juice, nam pla.  And they eat it with something that looks like river weeds.  But it is VERY nice. 
Anyone else heard of this ?

I like Som Tam  love5 but not to keen on the 'goy neua',its that's stuff in a bag that puts me off  sick1

Ya, thats it. "Goy Neua".

Apparently the women won't eat it because it gives you worms.
Good thing the Irish Whiskey kills them off or I'd be F@#ked. 
I am getting a taste for the "Pla Sap" smelly fish in a bag, but I don't like the other smelly fish types, or the smelly crab one.
The wife tells me I have Kameen taste buds, I just think I'm a hungry B@stard.
Remember the famine, as a result the Irish can't turn down food, a dangerous trait in a country like Thailand, I couldn't even turn down Rat (not nice at all). 
Candied bugs are nice also with beer.
I brought black pudding over last time and the men loved it.  Again women wouldn't eat it because of the blood.

My misses wont eat snake or ells, she won't even kiss me if I eaten snake!!!
I know that sound wrong on so many levels so hang on  let's get this straight, If me or her Dad find snakes in the house or garden they get eaten. Normally snake lab, which is crunchy as hell cause her dad won't skin them first.
Right I think im in the clear with that
cheers gotta go

Fish and chips doesn't do it for me. I'd much rather have a vindaloo chicken with all the trimmings.

My gf (Nun) wont eat lots of meat as she thinks she will get fat but she likes to eat noodles.  And believe it or not she only eats rice once or twice a week. I try to tell her protien wont make her fat but does she believe me .... MAI.
  I thought nuu (rat) wasnt too bad.  Wouldnt want to eat it everyday but would do it again.  Malang ... I kinda like.
