Quidditch sandwitch flies into Manitoba deli

According to several reports on the internet today, a new Harry Potter-themed deli in Manitoba, Canada, has a very interesting sandwich on its menu. It's called a Quidditch, and it is made up of pickles, mayonnaise, radishes, alfalfa spouts, and wild moose meat. I'd like to tell you how I feel about that recipe, but I can't spell "Ewwww!"

Does not sound so bad, if you find this offensive do a bit of research into what domesticated meat is made of. All sorts of chemicals and body parts that would normally be discarded. If one follows the trail of 'home grown' from the farm through the slaughter house and processing centers to your kitchen table, it may well put you off all types of meat.

I don't think it sounds bad - I have eaten and enjoyed moose meat! Maybe "don't knock it til you've tried it?"...LOL!

Well said, KMD - most meat products are so overprocessed and unhealthy, not to mention the cruelty of the slaughter, especially concerning poultry meat. I am sure most peolpe couldn't stomach their ordinary portion of meat if they knew what goes into it. "Wild moose meat" doesn't sound worse to me than any other meat produce, at least the non-rganic variety.

What about Falafel (as the snitch) and maybe some hoops cut out of red pepper ( the goalposts) and then maybe some chickpeas ( the quaffels) as a Quidditch sarnie?

I have no issues with eating moose burgers or any animal for that matter. The "Quiddich" can be made from baby harp seal and it wouldn't matter. I was surprised to read all the responses discussing the healthy vs unheathy aspects of "moose meat" because I can not fathom why would any want to put mayonnaise on ANYTHIG? Mayo is about the most disgusting thing we as a species have developed. And I do mean anything. Anything you can imagine and then some would be less horrifying than mayonnaise. Just thinking about it right now is making me sick to stomach. Mayonnaise needs to be something that a person would have to tell the waiter/waitress to add to their meal. It should never be standard on anything...AT ALL! I like all the other ingrents and think it my have a touch of brilliance involved until the mayo ruins everything. Yeech. Either way, I'll give it a go...without the mayo of course.
