    Never had aspic but I had some unflavoured gelatin one time for a temporary restricted diet and I swear it tasted like licking the armpits and feet of a pig that had freshly been smeared with sheep shit.

      That’s about accurate :3… honestly aspic doesn’t taste that bad? I mean it’s just meat and vegetables essentially, but the texture is horrible. It’s not like commercial gelatin you buy in packets, it’s more firm and grainy, while still having that wobble, and it just makes me gag

        I actually just googled the unflavoured gelatin to see if other people agreed with me and it seems to be the specific “knox” brand I got. They must scrape it off the floor of a pig processing factory or something, I even tried mixing it with some gatorade and it tasted like eating solidified sweat right out lebron’s ass crack midgame
