Why? Simply because it's not often that I read a article that includes such good advice: "you shouldn't drink the blood of someone with Ebola"
In fact, never before - and I can't see a situation when I'd want to read it again...

Perhaps if you get turned into a vampire? Provided you weren't immune to Ebola then.
The good thing about pessimism is, that you are always either right or pleasently surprised.

I'm a Brit who has never tried black pudding (never wants to!) does that make me less of a Brit...

I'll try eating anything once: Black Pudding was a "once". It's a "Marmite" moment, I think: you love it or you hate it.

Much like Haggis I assume....

Haggis, tatties'n'neeps with a tot is good!
Especially if you get the Left-handed Haggis - the Right-handed ones are a bit tough.

Left handed have longer legs on the left for running clockwise round the mountains; right handed the converse.
Makes it easier when you are huntin' them: if you can spook a pair of opposites they can headbut each other and stun themselves...

Hmmm... still put off by it though!

Very similar, the recipes aren't that different after all.
Black pudding is one of those things that a low quality one is just disgusting, whereas a good one has a nice balance of flavours and textures that works quite well. I don't really like it myself, whereas I do like haggis, though.

You should try it, it's good.
But nothing beats the blood pancakes with lingonberry jam my father used to make. Yum!

I think I must be a veggie trapped in a carnivores body as that doesn't sound appetising, I might have a go at lingonberry jam though (when I can!)...

What a wimp! Black pudding (especially the famous Bury variety) is the food of Gods!

This is all wrong, you will necessarily be drunk after drinking the blood of someone who drank the blood of someone who ... of someone who was drunk.40 (this is an exposant)Randall wrote: If this process were repeated about 11 times, there would be fewer than 60 molecules of ethanol left in the last person's blood. After one more cycle, there would very possibly be none. They'd just be drinking regular blood If not, then homeopathy would not work. People would just be eating sugar.

However, I will confidently say that you shouldn't drink the blood of someone with Ebola.
What a smart advise!
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who separate humankind in two distinct categories, and those who don't.
