Interesting. I would think that if Klingons managed to make their way to 2=
1st century Earth=2C they may have to make do with Terran cuisine (burnt an=
imals and all). And I don't think it's fair to assume that all Klingons wou=
ld find Terran food and drink distasteful. Worf seemed to enjoy prune juic=
e. There's plenty that a Klingon could order at a local bar that would sat=
isfy their need for a strong drink. And there are plenty of places on Eart=
h that serve raw or semi-raw animals. Then again=2C maybe they'd take one l=
ook around and decide to hightail it back to Qo'noS. Of course=2C there are=
a good many words included in the Eurotalk Talk Now! Klingon software that=
correspond to items I am almost certain you would never find on Qo'noS...w=
ell=2C unless First City has a Humantown where you can pick up the soap=2C =
toothpaste=2C combs=2C aspirin (I really like the Klingon word for aspirin)=
and any other toiletries you may have forgotten to pack.
