Snails or any bugs.
I’d have to be really starving to eat cauliflower or broccoli.
No animal organs.
Liver.
Kokoretsi (Greek delicacy).
Chinese dish called “aged fish”
Kimchi
Anything that is spicier than “mild”
Tripe.
Hot dogs or sausage
Fast foods
Anything with mayonnaise in it.
Cilantro
C’mon guys! You know if you were literally starving you’d eat all that stuff, including aged fish (gross as it sounds.)
But, since I have the luxury of not being starving, I just say no to brains, tongue, liver and chipped beef in cheese sauce over toast.
I seem unable to do sushi, either.
Aged fish smells like rotten fish that was cooked that makes it very stinky and revolting. One time at dinner I was asked to try a small bite of it. I had to spit it out in a napkin and nearly vomited at the dinner table.
Rocky Mountain oysters. Nope. No way.
Humans. I know I would never ever.
^^^ That’s what the Donnar party and the Rugby team swore.
@Dutchess_III Your thigh is looking mighty tasty right about now!
Not enough meat on it to make a meal.
But I only need a bite or two and then I’m full!
:D. I’m your Huckleberry!
Raw bugs. I mean if I was literally starving I suppose I would eat them if I could at least cook them.
I really dislike white rice.
Cucumbers they do nasty things to my intestines, almost everything mentioned I’ve eaten (no humans and yes raw bugs).
Doctor thinks it is because of my allergy to ragweed ?
@SQUEEKY2 I find that so very odd. I love rice, all of the varieties I’ve tried. I like it plain with just a little salt or Cavenders.
^^ That’s not food, although I did used to eat it with the kids as a treat!
I desperately want to try sushi but I just can’t bring myself to take that first bite. :(
You’re missing out @Dutchess_III, try Tempura (cooked first then wrapped in rice and Nori) Sushi. I’ve been eating Sushi and Sashimi since I was 10. First is was Sea Urchin roe (think caviar) !
@Dutchess_III The rule is to not buy sushi at a convenience store. :-)
@chyna is right. needs to be from a gas station
Best Spam Musubi I ever had came from a convenience store in Kauai . Grilled seasoned Spam wrapped in sticky rice and Nori.seaweed.
I know I’m missing out! That’s why I desperately want to try it!
Ok, if I was literally starving to death, I’d eat a human before I’d eat one of those huge fat whitish grubs that live in the bark of trees. And there are a number of bugs that I wouldn’t touch with a thirty-nine-and-a-half-foot pole, let alone eat them. I’d die first.
I gathered up my nerve and tried a sushi guys. Got a mouth full of crunchy, raw veggies. I gave up at that point.
Wait ‘til you try German sushi.
@Dutchess_III I would be suspicious of what is sold as sushi in Kansas. What was the name of what you tried?
@ragingloli is that bratwurst on spaetzele wrapped with seaweed ? ?
I have no idea what kind it was.
Why would sushi in Kansas be any different than in any other state @janbb?
@Dutchess_III i would assume there are many fewer Japanese in Kansas than on the coasts. My main point is that there are many different kinds of sushi so you can’t judge by one taste that was all raw vegetables – although there are vegetable varieties.
And petrol station/supermarket sushi does not count. Those are always terrible.
You don’t have to be Japanese to know how to make sushi @janbb. It’s just a recipe.
We actually have several sushi-specific resturaunts within 20 miles of where we live:
Ninja Sushi Steak House, Hibachi Boy and MOSA Hibachi & Sushi .
The sushi I tried was at a Chinese resturaunt NOT AT A GAS STATION RAGGY!
We have several places that serve sushi in our area, best one is run by a Filipino guy. He has a Japanese trained sushi chef; his knife skills are amazing.
Go to MOSA their menu looks legit.
Do they have sushi for beginners?
California roll.
Did the Chinese restaurant serve pink pickled ginger and green “wasabi” (actually dyed horseradish) on the side ?
@Tropical_Willie it was at an all you can eat. You serve yourself.
As far as I can remember they weren’t named.
All veggies sounds like.
All you can eat sometimes skips protein like tuna, crab and tempura shrimp.
I only took one bite so there may have been more to it.
To be honest I take the view that if it exists as a food and people consider it a delicacy, then it’s probably worth trying. There are things, however, that I really don’t much fancy.
1. Balut. I love fresh duck eggs and duck meat, but I really am not in a hurry for the bit in between.
2 Casu Marzu. I love cheese, but I can live without the maggots.
3 Andouillete. Some kind of French sausage made from pigs’ intestines. Apparently uncleaned. It’s said that the worse it smells, the better it is. I’ll take their word for it.
4 Fugu fish. Not worth the risk.
5 Not really a food, but civet coffee. I have no wish whatsoever to ingest something picked out of cat poop, even if they rinse it under the tap first. It’s not even anything special, so they say.
