AIBU To Wonder What Clanger...

[TiggyD]

...meat tastes like?

What's a clanger?

Venison.

That's what I think, anyway. They look game-y.

I'd think more like pork than venison. Probably chicken though. Everything tastes like chicken.

what' are the clangers??? are you insane?? u tube.. best ever children's programme. remember it as a kid circa 1969!!!

why would you eat them though??? 😂

the wool would stick in your teeth.

stick to the soup. Lovely soup. Lovely sooooooooooppp.

Yes, they probably do taste like chicken.

Or whatever rat meat tastes like. I can't help thinking of how the wool would squeak when you bite it, like when you get a mouthful of jumper shudder

Normal chicken meat or iron chicken meat?

They do look ratty so I'm imagining gamey and tough. Maybe farmed clangers would be better?

Rat was my second thought, TheFillyJonk. They do look rat like.

I think I'm about to get stuck in you tube loop of old children's TV programmes.

Guinea pig. Or squirrel.

Or free range Clangers from Waitrose, TiggyD

I have to look at the Clangers again too. The narrator (Oliver Postgate?) had the most deliciously soothing voice. There is a hilarious moment in the 'money' episode which I remember from my childhood - one of the Clangers throws a chocolate coin in disgust and floors an unsuspecting Clanger. Probably still funny.

Heston would probably serve them stuffed with yogurt, Monster Munch and chorizo, then coated in liquid carrot souls.

Really? You'd eat Clanger meat?

I have eaten one. It tasted exactly like a lamb chop. Not a great meat to bone ratio though.

This has to be a front-runner in any competition entitled: "Top conversational openers that can stop a dinner party in its tracks."

episode TheFillyjonk?

I reckon Pontipines would taste like prawns, and you could eat a flump like a kiwi fruit.

Thanks for that link ClayDavis. Love it.

eeuuuww yuk. flump would be all fluff

clanger would be chewy. all that wool.

At least we know what Peppa would taste like.

Yes! That's the one, Clay. God, they're so bloody cute. I couldn't eat a Clanger. Or Baby Dragon.

Porkish, or turkey. It'd be stronger than chicken but not very red.

Anyone want a Clanger Burger, topped with sliced red onion and blue cheese.

Not red onion and blue cheese, rocket and blue cheese.

I think if you had to eat Clanger, it'd be thinly sliced, cooked to perfection, and served with wild mushrooms on Polish potato pancakes. I had wild boar cooked that way and it was salivatingly good.

But, like I said, I couldn't eat a Clanger.
