set him up outdoors to eat it.

The international grocery here sells it It's got a thick coating of wax to lock in the stench. I do see people buying it,, so I guess it's good if you can get it past your nose. I wanted to try it after Covid when my sense of smell conked out, but it was out of season.

It's the one thing Andrew Zimmern spit out.
