    1. You aren't missing anything. Tastes like jizz in both saltiness and gag-inducing texture.

  2. Anthony Bourdain convinced me that every food should be tried once. I will go along with that until I get to brains, eyeballs, or warthog anus.

  14. BAKED BEANS, never!

  15. I've never had a waffle or a macaroon in my life. And I'd never eat any type of strange organ meat--eyeballs, testicles, hearts, feet

    1. Macarons are overrated IMHO. (And I think I had my first macarons at a nice patisserie/chocolaterie where everything else was decent, so I’m guessing they were supposed to taste that way?)

      They are wonderfully Instagramable, tho.

  16. Apples. Gross flavor, nasty mouth-feel.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Mushrooms. As a kid I think I cut and ate a portobello(?) mushroom which I thought was a steak......... I was wrong. never even again, LOL

    ReplyDelete
  18. Anything meat or meat associated anymore. But especially not organ meat and tongues.

    No insects, never, no way, no how.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Anything that smells bad, I trust my sense of smell.

  20. Im nauseated from just looking up casu marzu, the Chinese urine eggs and balut...add in live grubs or other bugs...couldnt do it

    ReplyDelete
  21. Irish stew - looks like vomit.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Mountain oysters, turkey fries or anything similar to either.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Liver, broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, any organ meat, chicken or pig feet, blubber, etc.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Great thread. I will literally try anything. I will never, ever eat scrapple again. It has a smell that squeezes your brain. I don't know how else to describe it. I didn't think I'd like liver, but I did.

    1. I love liver (although I’d never eat foie gras because of what my French-language teacher taught me about how they’re bred).

      Delete
    2. Most of the liver I do eat is Indonesian food.

      Literally “offal” by its etymology (butchery leftovers).

      Delete
  25. Amish canned meat.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Very gross and hilarious thread!!

    I'm gonna say organ meats or assorted bodily parts like Zebra describes yechhhh, bugs and more

    ReplyDelete
  27. Something that I haven't already tried? Probably bugs. Can't get my head around that. I would also say offal but my mom was a big fan, so I've been force-fed some of that garbage in my lifetime.

    ReplyDelete
  28. No offense to ethnic foods bc I love love love variety but injera Ethiopian flatbread is like a coughed-up lung sitting on a plate and a trypophobic's nighmare. Gluten gloppy snotty oatmeal comes in second.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Century eggs. The lovely "emmymadeinjapan" does great food videos on YT but not even she could get me to try that dark gelatinous mess. She lost me at "smells like ammonia". lol

    ReplyDelete
  30. Don't knock fried crickets. They were very good and garlicy. I do draw the line at worms. So to the person who won't try deviled eggs - they are kinda gross.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Oysters or crawfish... shudder

    Haggis is wonderful!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Unless I am starving (probably not even then) insects, worms and grubs.

    escargot

  34. Balls. Brains. Tongue. Feet. Stomach. I love hot dogs, so may have eaten rat anuses - but never by choice.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Liver, onions and oysters

    ReplyDelete
  36. Organ meat. Kidneys, liver, giblets, etc. My mother used to make me eat liver when I was a child. She gave up when I was about 12 years old, thank goodness! Also, wild boar. My ex mil was famous in the area for making it. When she set it on the table, I almost became physically ill. Just the smell of it was something I couldn't tolerate. (This was when I lived in Spain and the whole family decided that "Americans didn't know how to eat.")

  37. As a "Bizarre Foods" fan, I'll try anything once. My try list includes Balut, Haggis, Head Cheese and Sea Urchin. " If it looks good, eat it."

    ReplyDelete
  38. Bugs - we’re being told more frequently this will solve climate change and a population problem, so I expect to see all the “green” cultists and psychos chowing down! I’ve also seen Snow Piercer so I know how it will likely go...

    ReplyDelete
  39. So many things, but one that hits all sorts of Hell No buttons would be roasted tarantulas: apparently it is eaten by some tribespeople in South America.
