Pig Feet Stew. Yummy!! It must be the French in you! My mom made it often when I was young. She made a gravy with burnt flour that is fabulous. Patty now makes gravy with the burnt flour.

I also make burnt-flour gravy and it gets so many compliments!! I've also passed that method along to our DD.....
And, like Natalka, we also had jellied pig's feet...it was called *phoneticcaly...studenach (right, Natalka?)...I guess anything loaded with garlic can be yummy!:P I don't make it, however.....
HAHA!! That's the Bob Burger, isn't it?? MY hubby ordered it accidentally and then had to eat it, but he actually liked it..he just couldn't finish the fries on the side..he's never ordered it again though..lol
Well the pigs feet stew is actually pork hock stew, but I guess that's just a prettier name for it, lol! Trust me, it's a French-Canadian thing and I only make it like 2 times a year...I would tell you if you were eating here, I've only ever made it for my family..as a matter of fact, Mom made it for DH last night, but I told him as usual it was just meatballs and gravy, cause thats pretty much how she makes it..lol
Yup, studenetz - (we lovingly called it 'pork jello!) my mom used pigs' feet and hocks, I just have used the hocks. Traditionally, the head of the pig was used, which is why it's known as 'headcheese'. And you're right about the garlic, loads of it!
When I want a 'taste' of it, our deli at Sobey's actually has a pretty decent garlic headcheese!

Okay my idea of gross food is probably anything served at the Heart Attack Grill http://www.heartattackgrill.com/
As per wiki:
The Heart Attack Grill is a fast food hamburger restaurant in Chandler, Arizona,<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-0>[1]</SUP> United States. It has courted controversy by serving unashamedly high-calorie menu items with controversial names. The establishment is a hospital theme restaurant: waitresses ("nurses") take orders ("prescriptions") from the customers ("patients"). A tag is put on the patient's wrist showing which foods they ordered and a "doctor" examines the "patients" with a stethoscope.
The menu includes "Single", "Double", "Triple", and "Quadruple Bypass" hamburgers,<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-1>[2]</SUP> ranging from 0.5 to 2 lb (0.23 to 0.91 kg) of beef (up to about 8000 calories), "Flatliner Fries" (cooked in pure lard), unfiltered cigarettes, beer and liquor, and soft drinks such as Jolt cola and Mexican Coke made with real sugar.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-entre_2-0>[3]</SUP> Customers over 350 lb (160 kg) in weight eat for free if they weigh in with a doctor or nurse before each burger. Beverages and to-go orders are excluded and sharing food is also not allowed for the free food deal.<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-3>[4]</SUP>
