Pass the pruno, hold the seagull

As nasty as prison-made wine a/k/a/ "pruno" sounds, and Eric Gillin does a bang-up job with a 1,700+ word how-to on making your own batch out of fruit, sugar and ketchup (no prunes, surprisingly), this 15-word recipe for making the Eskimo delicacy called Seagull Wine blows pruno right outta the water.

Are you ready?

Here's how to make Seagull Wine:

1. Put a seagull in a bottle.
2. Fill with water.
3. Let it ferment in the sun.

Yes. A seagull. A. Dead. Seagull. In a bottle. And left in the sun. Uh-huh. No, I don't think I want to supersize my order, thanks...

More goodies, like Glogg, Ammonia Coke and Cynar (a bitter liquer made from... artichokes) can be found at weird-food.com, and this is just on the Drinks page. Bugs is a guaranteed gross-out, and I bet you didn't even know that dirt was a food group.
