WOW! Not many can say that. Good for you!0 -
I have never tried sardines, either.0

More than anything, I think the movie The 'Burbs turned me off from sardines. That scene where Tom Hanks eats one on a pretzel just grosses me out. lol0

I've never had sharon fruit/persimmon. I can't bring myself to try one because I've no idea what to expect, or how to eat it.0

Lots, for me. I grew up kosher, and even though I'm not anymore, I've got lots of holdovers. I've never eaten pork (or bacon, or ham, or sausage). I've never eaten lobster or crab or shrimp or any kind of seafood or shellfish. I've never eaten most game meats, or things like snails or grasshoppers. I don't necessarily think there's anything wrong with other people eating these things, but the thought of eating them myself icks me out, so I don't.
Some people ask me whether I "miss" these things. But I don't. How could I? They've never been part of my diet.
I also haven't eaten red meat since I was a very small child, and I don't eat much meat at all anymore -- only chicken or fish. I do eat pretty much anything that's vegetarian, mind you, and I'll try anything that is -- unless it's designed to look/smell/taste too much like meat, in which case I'll probably avoid it as a matter of taste.
@Tinabob77, I've never eaten spam either. Doesn't strike me as the least bit appetizing.0 -
Raw seafood. When I was teaching a Zoology class, we covered a LOT of parasites including protozoa and every type of worm imaginable. For weeks afterward, I badly overcooked all of our meat/poultry/seafood for weeks.0

Olives. The thought repulses me.0

Never tried sardines. The jelly they're packed in puts me off.
Get them in mustard or tomato sauce.0 -

Oh .. I never even knew that existed... bleaurgh (in a totally accepting of all other cultures, but simply not for me sort of way)
hahaha. You googled it!
I was fine skimming past the first reference but of course curiosity got me...EEK!
I will try most things put in front of me at least once. But I am certain I wont be trying that.0 -

OMG, no! I love olives. There are so many different kinds and they are all so salty and yummy.

Something I've only tried for the first time a few months ago: peanut butter. I always thought the smell was absolutely horrible so i never ate it but now that i tried it i loooove it :')
Not a food but a drink: cococola/pepsi/etc. it smells disgusting, don't think i'll ever try it.0 -

Rocky Mountain oysters Not ever gonna try'em0

I've never had figs0

Never eaten? I will try anything listed as palatable, therefore never eaten includes:
1. Never come across it
2. It moved too fast to catch
And I did not have to Google for balut. My son watches the food channel, Bizarre Foods. He enjoys sharing that type of information.
Looking forward to trying haggis. It can't be "official" in the US because here you are not allowed to sell the parts used.

There's quite a lot, I'll give a few 'interesting' foods a go some time.0
