Foodzings, a blog we happen to read pretty often, submitted this gem to us a few weeks ago, along with an accompanying note (all sic):

so ethnic restaurant menus should really be given a free pass. after all, english is not their native language, they utilize exotic ingredients that may not translate well, and they probably don't have the most thorough menu qa processes in place. but i could not resist this.

from pho & cafe viet huong at 11th and washington ave.

there's nothing i enjoy more than thinly sliced raw beef marinated in juice from limb. mmm mmm, arm-or-leg-a-rrific!

Bravo, Foodzings! Bravo!

Oh god that's just disgusting. Limb juice.

(Shudder)

All I can picture now is a scene from some demented zombie movie where the hero blows off a zombie's rotted leg at close range with a sawed-off shotgun, resulting in a horrendous spray of blood mixed with yellow and green sticky fluid.

Yuk.

I once encountered Strange Flavored Chicken on a menu at a Chinese restaurant in Boston.
