Japanese French Restaurant Serves Meal of Dirt — for $110

Yeah.

Japan has always been a popular destination for people with adventurous palates. But this might be taking things a bit too far.

Ne Quittez Pas, a French restaurant in Tokyo’s Gotanda district, recently unveiled an extraordinary menu. For $110 per person, it is serving an entire course featuring a rather peculiar ingredient: dirt. An Asian news site, Rocket News 24, has checked out the dishes, which include a potato starch and dirt soup, a salad with dirt dressing, a dirt risotto with sautéed sea bass and dirt ice cream with dirt gratin for dessert.

Hash browns recalled due to golf ball pieces

Yeah.

MATTHEWS, N.C. — A food company is recalling frozen hash browns from stores in nine states because the potatoes may have pieces of golf balls in them.

McCain Foods USA’s recall notice said the golf balls apparently were “inadvertently harvested” along with the potatoes and chopped up. They say the pieces could be a choking hazard, but no injuries have been reported.

The company is recalling two-pound bags of Harris Teeter Brand Frozen Southern Style Hash Browns in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, District of Columbia, Delaware, Florida, Georgia and Maryland.

It is also recalling Roundy’s Brand Frozen Southern Style Hash Browns from Marianos, Metro Market, and Pick ‘n Save stores in Illinois and Wisconsin.

The hash browns being recalled have the production code B170119 on the back of the bag.

Southern Style Hash Browns. Now with 100% more golf ball pieces! 😉
