Eat it without guilt! Save the "essential" (in quotes) meat for the troops (WWI troops, that is.)



TASTE THE TASTE.  Now that's what I call a slogan!

"Taste the Taste" is very meta here. I mean, it's TONGUE, right? If it were deviled nose, it would be "Taste the Smell", right? Taste the Taste of Taste! "Taste the Taste of What Other Animals Taste With"!

LOL! I spit coffee on my keyboard, damn you!

[pikkewyntjie.livejournal.com]

"Branded With The Devil But Fit For The Gods!"

There's a Supernatural episode somewhere in there.

I love love loved Underwood Deviled Ham as a kid. I think I'll pick some up, too!

Or awesome text for a tattoo! Or at least a 70s-era van. You'd definitely have to have Odin as one of the gods.

What do I feel a sudden need for macrame?

[pikkewyntjie.livejournal.com]

This is true: I used to be terrified of the Underwood Devil as a kid, like about age 3 or 4. I don't think I even knew what the devil was then, but it still creeped me out. I never liked that stuff anyway. The old Devil logo looks even more evil than the more modern one, which is still quite old.

Sorry for laughing, but I think it's hilarious that you were scared of the Underwood Devil when you were little!

[tudorlady.livejournal.com]

My (much, much younger) step-sister used to be terrified by the Mark VII TV logo (Jack Webb's company). Not a face in sight - just a guy's hand with a hammer. To this day she hasn't been able to explain it.

[pikkewyntjie.livejournal.com]

No worries. I think it's hilarious, too!

[xopiateslavex.livejournal.com]

Ewwww. That made me hate Underwood just a little more.

Mmm, I love deviled ham, I wonder how deviled tongue tastes like? Is this still sold?

Re: Yes

[njbearcub1.livejournal.com]

Looks like they do not, at least not in the States. Ham, chicken, roast beef, and liverwurst. And turkey. Not shown, but they mention it in a recipe, and on the "Where to Buy" page.

Nice icon ;P

Thanks for the links! I'm Asian, so deviled tongue doesn't actually sound that weird to me lol. My mum would probably love it.

[meezergal.livejournal.com]
