John sent me quite a few photos from the St. Johns county Flea Market in St. Augustine, Florida. We agree, this one is the best. I wonder what it's really boiled in??
If you are worried about the sketchy "milk," just go to the vendor right behind them; they apparently boil their corn in regular milk. And, by the way, is this a common phenomenon--boiling corn in either pretend or real milk? We use what we like to call water at our house.
Actually the "milk" could be from the corn, not cow/goat/yak, hence the quotes. That's what we hicks call the white, liquid stuff in each kernel of corn.
Considering the sort of semi-literate vendors that populate flea markets it's not surprising they'd misplace a few quotes.
ReplyDeleteYou really do not want to ask.
ReplyDeleteRemember that episode of The Simpsons where they find out that Fat Tony is selling Rat Milk to the school? I bet THAT is what they mean by "milk"

ReplyDeleteMy favorite part is that the sign in the background has quotes, too.
