What food have you never eaten?

I've never had truffles.

I've never eaten cactus, but would like to try it.
I've never eaten blood sausage or head cheese. Never will!

Any Organ Meat

+1. also feet, like chicken claw. also, a number of fish and other marine animals. and mango, there's something in the smell i dislike

Deer. Which is especially weird considering the area I live in. Just never had the opportunity. Not sure I would even if I did, as I struggle eating meat. Not a vegetarian (for mental health reasons - triggers disordered eating), but I do kind of have the mentality of one.

Lobster, I love seafood but never got round to trying it.

There isn't a whole lot that I have never eaten, although there are certainly things I probably won't eat again: raw fish, for example. Tried it, but did not care for it.

Mammals - I've eaten all of the ones I'm aware of that are raised for consumption and a variety of game animals (deer, elk, buffalo, rabbit - although the latter two I may have only eaten domestically raised animals). I haven't had squirrel, bear, or 'possum, although I would certainly try squirrel if it came my way, and probably would try bear.

Birds - I've had chicken, turkey, duck, goose, and guinea fowl. I haven't had ostrich or emu, nor pigeon or other game birds, but I probably would if I had the opportunity.

Reptiles/amphibians - I think the only thing I've had is frog, although I may have had turtle a long time ago. I would try snake or alligator, assuming they weren't endangered species.

Vegetables -- I can't think of any that I haven't had, although I'm sure somewhere in the world people are growing and eating vegetables I've never heard of.

Fruits -- Lots here that I haven't eaten, mostly tropical ones (tamarinds, mangosteens) that are expensive and hard to find locally. And given that I don't care for mangos or papayas (they make my mouth feel odd, as though the food is digesting me instead of the other way around), I guess I'm a little leery of buying unfamiliar fruits at high prices that I don't even know how to tell if they're ripe.

Organ meats - I've had liver (beef, chicken and turkey), fish eyes, and turkey hearts and gizzards (? - whatever the other thing is in the giblet package stuffed inside the bird), but not kidney, tongue, brain or thalmus. I haven't had tripe, and I'm not interested in having it -- not just because of the function it performs when the animal is alive, but because as best as I can tell, it's essentially connective tissue, or the same consistency as connective tissue, which I don't like (I've chicken leg tendons) because no matter how long you chew, your saliva has no effect on their consistency. Your teeth may break them down into smaller pieces, but to me it seems like chewing plastic.

I haven't had haggis. I wouldn't mind trying it, assuming I'm not expected to eat the stomach lining (see objection to consistency of connective tissue above ;-)

Snails. And I will continue to pass.

I threw up in a fancy napkin the minute I tried one.

Taco bell

I haven't eaten quite a few things that some people consider normal.

Tofu, or any soy products for that matter. I've bought tofu recently just to try it but haven't cooked it yet.

Lime. I've had lemons but never seen limes sold, or passion fruit for that matter.

Cottage cheese. We don't have it here (or maybe I wasn't looking hard enough)

Celery, kale, brussel sprouts and asparagus.

Real blueberries

Dream whip

Lard, or anything made with it

Protein powder (or bars)

I was going to say vegemite, but I happened to buy some today just to try. Not as bad as people make it sound in those youtube videos. It's really salty, but has a peculiar aftertaste which I actually quite liked.

Quinoa gives me the shivers,texture is weird,no tofu,shrimp,eel & such.Tripe,brains.Cheesecake,pecan pie,Cream of Wheat.Kale chips,marshmallows on potatoes
Texture bothers me more than taste.
