wow. this is one huge mystery on what was the green thing made from a scrab. o_o

It isn't necessarily made from a scrab. It could be any additives made by Vykkers. I got the picture of a Scrab cake, and wrote some stuff on it. :D

I've always wondered whose teeth those were. The ones imprinted on the cake, that is.
Possibly Mudokon teeth? But Mudokons weren't supposed to have teeth when the ad was designed...

*Skillya thinks WAY too much*

I also wondered that. Though I want to know how whoever bit into it could have not eaten the thing inside.

It's quite clearly a marketing design rather than a picture of an actual half-eaten munchie. It's like photos of McDonalds burgers - they never actually look like that in real life.

hah! imagine a Meech Burger, a Scrab Burger, a Paramite Burger, a Mudokon Burger, and a new burger, the Fleech Burger.
what would THOSE tastes like?
Note: they don't actually appear in teh Oddworld games.

Scrab Burger: I think it would taste like a scrab brain.
Paramite Burger: Pretty much, tasting like Paramite "fingers". o_o
Meech Burger: Double scrab brain haha.
Mudokon Burger: Uh...mudokon eyeball? .,.
Fleech Burger: Pretty much like a grass smooshed up :sick:

How would you even know what any of those things taste like in the first place?

Maybe the green stuff inside the cake is actualy another colour. After all the scrabs suposed to be orange.

IAmHeavy 06-26-2007 01:16 PM

well i think young scrabs are green.
and plus i think the grown scrabs arent orange, but are red and white. (haha cat in the hat :D)

skillya_glowi 06-26-2007 05:29 PM

Maybe the green stuff is chewy. Like Now and Later's (God I hate those).

Good point. I never thought of that. ;)
You only see green scrabs because they're posters and they're either old and discoloured, or it's their concept colour.

Marvak 06-26-2007 10:47 PM

I think the green stuff is most likely a thick goo, (like caramel, only meatier) blended with some part of the scrab, dyed green for the sake of it, and stuffed into the centre of the cake.
Mmm, I just wanna go and puke now.

Nate 06-26-2007 10:47 PM

Remember that the average Khanzumer has lived their lives in the big cities and never seen a Scrab in the wild. They're kept at a distance by the Gluk's marketing.

Think about it; how many children growing up in the western world really understand the process by which cattle are born, grown, slaughtered then turned into a steak? For that matter, just because the Scrab's skin is orange, doesn't mean the flesh is the same. Cows can be various colours but rarely red like meat.

Alex2405 06-27-2007 11:45 AM

A REAL mistery!The green thing in the Scrab Cakes is Scrab Meat full of artificial color, like other Junk Foods from Earth!

Director Phleg_47 06-27-2007 01:36 PM

I think the stuff on top is the remaining skin from the scrab rolled up and pasted down the cake to give it a crispy texture, butchers often use the remainding skin of animals for food purposes.

I always thought paramites taste like chicken :dead: (But Clakkers Do)
