This was one of those
articles on MSN. I chose a few from the list and put them in 4
categories: Yes/already tried, Maybe, Highly doubt it, and finally,
DEATH FIRST! (to quote Westley)
In the first category are
the following:
1. Frog legs and rabbit. I've
eaten both, and they were fine, but I wouldn't go out of my way to
eat them again.
2. I've also had baklava and
bread pudding. And YES, I would go out of my way to eat them again.
And have.
3. Scotch eggs. I've heard
about this dish many times in Brit literature. Hard boiled egg
wrapped in sausage meat, breaded and fried. What's not to like? I
would definitely like to try this.
4. Japanese kobe beef. Would
LOVE to try this without having to take out a bank loan first.
5. Prickly pears. I've always
been curious as to what it tastes like. It's used to make candy,
jelly and drinks.
Maybe category:
1. Fried alligator, kangaroo
steak. As long as it's well cooked, I'd try either.
2. Baba ganoush. Heard this
name so many times watching Most Extreme Elimination Challenge that I
would HAVE to at least try it. I've had eggplant parmigiana, and
enjoyed it.
Highly doubt it:
1. Borsch. Hate beets. 'nuf
said.
2. Durian. Very stinky Asian
fruit. Supposed to be healthy, but the smell has made it banned in
public places. That should be a hint in itself.
3. Black pudding sausage made
with pig's blood. Ick.
4. Caramelized grilled eel.
Doubt it.
DEATH FIRST!
1. Sea urchin w/caviar. Even
the article said it was not suitable for all palates. Pass.
2. Escargot/Haggis. Not this
side of the grave. Snails and sheep offal. No thank you!
3. Grilled octopus. Nope nope
nope nope nope nope nope nope. One for each tentacle.
So there you have it. Just
gimme a cheeseburger and a slice of baklava, please.
