So I’m researching what kind of eggs my hero and heroine would eat for breakfast, and I came upon this:
He goes on to recommend not eating fruit at breakfast (you might feel “heavyish” all day!) and eggs–yuck! He doesn’t want to have pullet-sperm in his stomach all day!
But cold pig’s face? YUM!!! (He recommends eating it with French mustard and shallot vinegar.)
Okay, I’ve got to get back to my revisions. Just had to share. LOL.

Actually, I understand (though I don’t know this from experience!) that pig’s cheek is a delicacy in some circles.
