In all the years I lived down south I could never bring myself to enjoy okra. Even deep fried I found it to be a slime filled snot ball.

But if it can clean up plastic waste? I may have to rethink my aversion.

That is some seriously vengeful lightning right there. In my head I’m hearing Liam Neeson’s voice. “I will find you”.

Where has this been all my life?

And what the Hell Canada! We’re your friendly lobster filled neighbors to the south…. please share.

Now that is a yacht worth having.

Take the yacht to Canada, get some ice cream.

1) Okra in Gumbo is mandatory, otherwise it is just vegetable soup 2) Lightning only strikes in a straight line, so more than likely she caught a deflection of the bolt 3) Why would I buy Canadian Ice Cream when I can get Amish Ice Cream? 4) Ah hell, now we will get a million reports of USO’s (Unidentified Sailing Objects) Nessie lives!

I had a Louisiana born and bred Cajun neighbor teach me how to make gumbo, no okra. For which I am very thankful.
Amish ice cream? Do tell…

Your neighbor told you how to make Cajun soup. No okra, no gumbo. Anyway, the Amish make two things better than anybody else: ice cream and Shoo-Fly-Pie. You have to go to Amish Country or an Amish Market to get their ice cream as they do not mass produce for grocery store vending.

Ohhh, I’d love to try that ice cream! Meanwhile my son who’s looking over my shoulder is going “eww, what the hell is wrong with Canada to include licorice in ice cream?” 🙄😵💫

Hang on here. I am Canadian. I grew up in the 50s, 60s, and 70s, (born in November of 1949), and I have never heard of tiger tail ice-cream. Either someone is putting you on, or it was a regional treat and was not dpecifically “Canadian.” Possibly those Bluenosers in Atlantic Canada? Or the Newfies from Newfoundland? Maybe even the LaLaLanders in BC. I demand a recount!

All I know is I’ve never seen it in Maine, which is quite disappointing.

It is still sometimes featured as a seasonal flavour at Baskin Robbins.
In Canada: Kawartha Dairy, President’s Choice, and Chapman’s all also offer their own versions of tiger tail for sale.

You have to mix your okra in with a spicy gumbo then it doesn’t taste so slimy.
