Strange Brew

In the past I introduced The Disgusting Foods Museum complete with its offering of various disgusting dishes,they have now added an equally disgusting  alcoholic beverages display featuring the lengths people will go to when it comes to getting a buzz. Exhibits like wine fermented in a prison toilet,spit fermented cornmeal beer from Peru,Uganda gin made from fermented bananas,and ancient Korean beverage made from children's feces and rice,a strong Scottish brew served from the mouth of a taxidermied squirrel and not to be outdone an Icelandic beer made from whale testicle smoked in sheep dung. Apparently the message is people can be very creative when the craving for alcohol becomes acute.

Each exhibit is considered a delicacy somewhere in the world, but strikes many unaccustomed palates as revolting, and the exhibit curator says humans have always been inventive when it comes to making booze.
