    Raw lemon. I'll eat the whole thing in one sitting.

    Haggis, blood pudding.

    Oh and full fat versions of stuff. I don't do diet food.

    I'll spare everyone pictures. I grew up eating some lovely traditional food that might turn other people a little green. a few examples:
    fish ice cream (don't knock it. total comfort food)
    fermented seal flipper
    moose nose salad
    moosehead soup
    sauteed eels (divine!)
    maktuq (whale fat and skin together)

    and there's many more on that theme. almost all are pretty high in calories and fat - we live in the arctic and subarctic, after all. need insulation! So I don't eat much of these anymore. I do miss them though!

    Wow, incredible! I love this thread! Got my stomach not wanting to eat, yay! Nah just joking, but very interesting!

    Hmmm ... I guess you're not a vegan then?

    lmao!

    I eat nutritional yeast on lots of stuff. Most people have never even heard of it.

    I've never tried it (to my knowledge) but my grandmother LOVED dog (with red sauce) and I have to say, we share similar tastes...

    No Bagoong? I used to eat it when I was a kid. I recently looked at the label on a jar at my parent's and my blood pressure shot up! Sodium hell, that one. I used to eat all of the traditional Filipino foods, but kinda grew away from it as I go older. Mmmm, Chocolate meat...

    omg that's like eating a little baby......

    That isn't *like* eating a baby, that is eating a baby.

    I'm pretty accepting of other people's foods, in general, but I'm also a vegetarian and find meat kinda gross at this point.

    Nutritional yeast? Pressed tofu? Raw kale in smoothies? Chia-gel? (Okay, this does kinda resemble snot, I wouldn't recommend it straight.) My husband thinks daiya (rice-based fake-cheese) is disgusting. I guess somehow plant matter doesn't have the same "ew factor" that dead animals do.

    Back when I ate meat I occasionally ate stuff like fish eggs and gum boots (kinda like abalone, but much smaller, with an articulated shell).

    Stewed cooter... I totally thought of "babymaker surprise" ... That said, the chocolate meat is such a creative lie. I don't care how Filipino I am. It's f*ckin' gross.

    Um...I didn't get sick, but I can't see ever eating anything like that.

    Me either. I have a hard enough time eating a regular egg. I can't stop thinking baby chicken. {shiver}

    I grew up in South Bama near the Gulf of Mexico and have had lots of interesting foods people look at me funny for. Here are my weird ones.

    Boiled Peanuts (yum!)
    Grits (cheese grits especially are great)
    Frog Legs (tastes like chicken lol)
    Fried rattlesnake (tastes a lot like catfish)
    Aligator Sausage (pretty much like regular sausage, and good)

    And because I'm into the gourmet foodie thing I also like:

    Tofu, tempeh, and etc (it's great if prepared right)
    Nutritional Yeast (on popcorn, baked veggies, toast etc)
    Bee Pollen (omg it's especially yummy sprinkled into a little vanilla ice cream)

    Italians in New Orleans eat this stuff called "hogs head cheese" that does have hog's head meat in it. It looks like green and clear jello with bits floating in it. Totally gross looking, I could never bring myself to try it.

    And my grandmother liked pork brains with eggs, said she grew up with that as a delicacy. I could never quite make myself try it either.

    That's rad! I used to love crickets. Cockroaches were good to.
    Now that I'm a vegan, I like to infuse my kikuchi with umiboshi. Can't get my family to touch it. I can't imagine why...

    whats kikuchi?

    i used to eat umiboshi all the time when i was a kid. just with rice though.
