Would you ever eat any of the (so called) gross things that seem to be particular favourites?
hmm..did we watch the same show today?? lol..the show was about some guy, traveling to several diffrent countries eating some of the nastiest things (IMO, lol)..the birds nest soup, GROSSES me out just thinking about it..*shudders* bird saliva and bird nests? NOOO thank you!! LOL
I wouldn't do the soup because there's nasty poo and bird spit and bird mites. Frog meat looks just like chicken so I think it would be easy. Escargot is too squeaky for me. Squid is good eatin' and caviar is good too. I don't know if I'd do guinea pig, honestly I can't object to it on the basis that it is a pet. A cow is a pet and I eat a cow. I think I'd be ok with guinea pig if I didn't see it whole.
I can barley eat fish without getting grossed out, frog meat is not ever gonna come on my plate. Birds nest soup? That's another no... :eek:. As said, bird poop, mites, and god knows what else. I don't say "EWW that gross" in public because it's rude and those people may think chicken or steak is weird, so I am not rude like that at least, I usually just think it's gross.
I had the opportunity of try frogs legs years back when my daughter and I went to a street fair in NYC. I passed, however my daughter tried them. I actually have a picture of her trying them. The look on her face is priceless. She gave me the usual line..."It tastes like chicken."
I said: That's a bit of a stretch but I have been known to eat some odd things!
I would not eat any of those things, but people say I eat wierd things sometimes. ( So I say they eat wierd things sometimes, too. ;) )
Nah... I'm a vegetarian. :D
A loooong time ago I age frog legs, though.
No! :d
I have eaten all of the above and also Iguana ,gator, turtle soup. I am sure I have eaten dishes that I don't WANT to know was in it. I was fortunate enough to travel extensivley in my younger days and some of the places it was local cuisine(3 weeks camping in tortugaro a week on the sarapiqui river etc.) and frog does taste a bit like chicken but muddier like catfish. ;)
No way. Doesn't even sound remotely appealing...plus I'm a Vegetarian.
The thought of eating 'odd' things usually grosses me out. The only out of the ordinary thing I've eaten is gator, which I liked. Justin loves calamari and I've tried it, but it knowing it was squid creped me out too much to enjoy it.
My grandpa used to love cow tongue. YUCK!
ummmmmm....................NO :eek:
I am not particularly adventurous in trying new foods.
I've eaten and liked/loved:
Frogs legs
Escargot
Alligator stew
Jellyfish
Fish stomach
Chicken feet (too much work for too little meat)
I'm pretty experimental when it comes to food and as long as it's cooked, I'll try it, the only exception being sushi which I love. Won't even go near fresh oysters....it's like eating something that's alive and feeling it squirm in your stomach.....yuck!!!
no. never! that is gross!
Heh. I am with the majority, I'd say.
I absolutely will NOT eat seafood. Crab, fish, nothing! Also, I have a strong dislike for anything and everything grape flavoured. I am a pretty picky eater BUT most people think the things I eat are weird. I like salt and vinegar chips/crisps, poutine, peanut butter and pickles, etc. :D
ummm...you know...im good on the whole frog leg bird nest soup thing...i like squid tho....and rattlesnake is good too...but no frogs and bird poo to eat for me...maybe some N.C. though....:D
I would eat a frog if it was in order to survive, but not for any other reason. :)
NEVER!!!! Once my sis servrd us froglegs on a family-dinner :eek: I absolutely refused to eat those!! Poor frogs.... . They say it tasts like chicken ,but there isn't even 1 bite of meat on those tiny legs....
It's not about being gross- it's about how they are killed etc. For us in our countries there is enough food that is either vegetarian or raised and killed humanely.
If you want to know about frogs I am sure the internet has lots of information.
Id give it a try XP...
Yes, the question was asking everyone whether they enjoy or not the taste of certain foods. If they don't, it is gross to them.Quote:
