Everyone who started farming them was gonna get rich. The second everyone who wanted in on the fad had theirs, the price of nutria tanked.<br /><br />Most of the damned things got released into the wild.Kristophrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08370888276707569365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-86212420621140524962014-02-09T14:49:15.133-05:002014-02-09T14:49:15.133-05:00So I now have it on excellent authority that bacon...So I now have it on excellent authority that bacon-flavored hog eggs are a breakfast treat sweeping the country. <br /><br />Give me a couple minutes and it will be "widely reported". <br /><br />If some of the rest of you pick this up and cite the blog, it will be "widely accepted".<br /><br />After that it will be only a week or so before the story appears in one of those papers that adorn check stands all over the country.Billllhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13913354887560267235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-5349673138942090872014-02-09T13:52:59.151-05:002014-02-09T13:52:59.151-05:00I always did wonder about the nutritional properti...I always did wonder about the nutritional properties of pig milk.<br /><br />Tried to name a WoW goblin rogue 'Nutria' one time, but the software wouldn't let me. A guild officer suggested I look at Urban Dictionary. Sure enough the word was supposedly used in some Gulf Coast circles as a derogatory reference to Hurricane Katrina refugees, and thus could be construed as an ethnic slur.<br /><br />Between that and the whole bacon thing ... ;)<br /><br />(NB: this is a dig at the PC mob's compulsion to take offense at just about everything.
