    If you talk about the item in the bottom left corner, this is not a fruit, but an artichoke:
    what about the top right? That looks like clams from what I see, but I really have no idea.

    Artichoke doesn't sound like the food for me. So much manual handling before I actually get to eat the damn thing, lol.

    @shinta&co: I forgot about the Philippine cuisine, but yeah I guess that's really unhealthy too. I think the "something + rice" combo made it skip my mind as being "normal". What sort of vegetable dishes do they have over there?

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    The food at top left looks like mussels, typical of what you see at Chinese buffets.

    Artichokes are actually fun to eat. You pull a blade off, rake off the flesh with your teeth, then on to the next one.

    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    top left?
    Mussels, but I had to watch carefully as the pic is a little small on my screen. Without paying much attention, I thought these were the artichoke blades, which wasn't very logical as the artichoke still is intact.

    And an artichoke also is interresting to eat because you have to do so much work and slowly enjoy it

    Edit:
    Should have read better, Ani did the same answer before I did

    So now French fries with Ketchup/mayonnaise and mussels make it a dish, fries are in fact coming with mussels as "Mussels and fries", basic dish, yet quite good.
    There are many ways of cooking mussels, I particularly like the white wine method, called "Marinière" or Marina in english from what I just read earlier.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
