The Bitch and Dogbody is Back [Bitch]

You could fill an entire Newfoundland recipe book with cakes made of “flour, pork fat and molasses”. Why? Because that’s all early Newfoundlanders ate, apparently. Oh, and every recipe in said cookbook would be fucking disgusting.

Hence the name of one variation: Bitch and Dogbody, a cake that is so gross, I guess that had to give it two stupid names.

So why is it on this blog? First, I’ll turn you away from dogbody, because that’s weird and gross and weird. And gross. Unfortunately, the word “Bitch”, while also a name for a female dog and derogatory name for women, it is as good as any word in sexual lexicon, or sexicon, as Product of Newfoundland has coined. I figure it is a product of male dominance and male fantasy fulfillment in pornography. Alas, those ideas are too smart for this blog so we will promptly avoid them.

A Baby Momma’s Delight [Bangbelly]

“Used to be up in them guts like everyday” doth quote Snoop Dogg in Bitches Ain’t Shit, the classic Dr. Dre song from his debut, The Chronic (those less interested in hip hop can check out the Ben Folds cover).

So obviously bangbelly is a Newfoundland variation on this bit of Southern California tidbit of expression, yes? I mean once you leave the Queen’s Penitentiary to hit the streets of Shea Heights… or maybe… at the very least it means a pregnancy? No, that would be either too obvious or too clever, I haven’t figured it out yet.

What it is, in fact, is a pudding, cake, or pancake, usually made with what’s at hand cooked in the most convenient way possible. Which means it could be just about anything. But it’s pretty darned good. If you want a recipe (which would defeat the purpose I’m guessing) you can check here and here.
