    Lobster in the shell, or crab legs. I have had lobster and crab meat, but I will not eat them from the shell.

    It makes me sad how many people have never tried kale.

    I have never eaten venison, though I'd like to try. . . . I think that's the only (semi)common thing. I'm pretty adventurous :)

    Also, for everyone saying they've never had anchovies: if you've ever eaten in a real Italian restaurant -- or Korean, or Malaysian, or Philippine -- or had Caesar dressing or Worcestershire sauce or Asian fish sauce, chances are pretty strong that you've had some and didn't know it.

    beets and fennel. Both on my list to try soon

    also, most seafood just looks/smells gross, same with liver.

    I ate a raw mango for the first time a month ago - awesome! :smile:

    I've never eaten raw oysters. The whole concept of it is disgusting to me.

    Insects. I see these people on tv eating chocolate-covered grasshoppers, etc. NASTY. I did eat a few garden slugs in my lifetime, but that was by mistake ... hazards of being an avid gardener ... those things can hide inside your green onions, etc. If anyone's interested, they are like Anbesol - totally numb your mouth and lips. With a nutty, gross taste.
