    okra

    seriously, it was disgusting. I may get summarily dismissed from the "south"......
    Was it fried? You can't dis it unless you try it fried. And dipped in ketchup.
    It was indeed fried. I don't think my grandma can cook anything without a fryer...

    *smh* She had to have done something wrong. :tongue:

    I like pickled okra. My step mom always has a jar around for holiday dinners.

    Really? Did you just stereotype billions of people as if they were one. Nice! And not at all ridiculous.
    Oh, I'm sorry. Did I offend you. MOST Americans. There. Is that better?

    You funny.

    a stale Cheerio that was covered in my toddler's spit & snot that he shoved in my mouth before I could stop him

    You win. I can't tolerate spit OR snot if it's not my own. Like at ALL.

    I don't like okra either.

    Don't think I've ever eaten anything strange. I'm not one to try something if I don't know what it is.

    It wasn't even the kind of off-hand comment we were expecting! Sheesh.

    It's sad how much is wasted, really. Americans are big babies. "Ewwww. I can't eat that! There's a bone in it."
    You know where else there is a big bone?

    Ricky Martin makes a delicious soup. Just add a little beef broth and some tendons and he tastes kinda like Vietnamese pho.

    Ricky Martin is a large mammal, so we agree.

    I, for one, also dig some other Mexican delicacies that most in the US don't: pig intestines

    Pig intestines (chitterlings, or "chittlin's" as they are called in my neck of the woods) is actually a pretty common food in some parts of the US.

    Bahahaha. There's always at least one.

    So I was thinking about my life, and how I don't remember ever eating anything gross. Then I read all these posts. I've eaten cow brain, toungue, squid, menudo (delicious), etc, and I don't find any of that to be gross.

    I did once throw away a co-worker's lunch. It was something she called "puset" or something like it. When I was cleaning the fridge, it looked like something that had been there for weeks and had become slimy. I don't think I would have even tasted it.
