I saw this poll awhile ago on my diet site sparkpeople.com and was wondering....
What food have you never had but would like to try?
One guy had said "watermelon" of course everyone else was shocked this guy had never had watermelon before, I mean sometimes that's my breakfast in the summer.
Mine is escargot. Yes I know they are snails but......I'm pretty adventurous.
What food would you like to try?
Conch.
They say it tastes like clams and fried like calamari(which I love)
Yuck to both! Can't say there is anything I've wanted to try but have not.
anything ethnic . . . my husband comes from a British background and there is only so much pot roast, yorkshire puddings and mushy veggies I want to eat in one lifetime.
I could eat Yorkshire pudding at every meal!!
When we were at a restaurant in Whitby, England, they served our 11 year old daughter a yorkshire pudding the size of a LARGE dinner plate - filled with chips (aka French fries) and gravy! We were so astounded we took pictures!
mmmmmmmmmmm...two of my favourite foods in one place, I'd of been in heaven!
More yuck!
Live grubs.
My brothers use to steal my frogs and eat fried frog legs. They swear it taste just like chicken!!! I was never very happy or willing to try them.
The guy on Man vs. Wild seems to love them.
Nutritious and delicious..just like chicken! ^_^
He ate a frog raw one time. He pointed out that the first bite (at the neck) had to kill it or you would feel it squirming all the way down. Yummy!!!!!!!!
Well maybe not yummy sitting at home in front of the TV....but a elegant meal if your lost out in the wilderness.
I agree.
Roasted witchey grub from Australia....
Crikey!
actually, I'd rather have pheasant....
::::shaking head:::::
I am a fan of all mentioned above, except the grubs. Not so wanting to even think about trying those. Yuck! I do want to love or even like sweet breads and other offal, but can't quite get there yet. Sea urchin and sea cucumber are other things that I would like to try without wanting to puke. Not there yet either. My chef son eats all those things, but will pass on a slice of raw onion. Go figure. Not sure he has eaten grubs or a raw frog. Patti
Sea urchin (raw) is absolutely delicious! Haven't ever tried sea slug - that I know of anyway.
frog legs do taste like chicken, yummy.
Frog legs taste like chicken that has eaten fish food all it's life....
Ok Victor - I'd really really like to try EVERY flavor of cheesecake on the Cheesecake Factory menu.
I'd have to get a personal trainer to go with that order though.....
Oh I would not mind that either! I didn't think of desserts.
Roast beef & yorkshire pudding is our christmas menu. I have a British receipe for Y. pudding.
Like to try Thai food . I could eat Chinese food everyday (and have) but never have gotten around to Thai.
I've never had Yorkshire pudding...so I guess there's one.
I've never tried a fruitcake...although I've seen them often enough.
When I was in the Navy and traveling all over the place I think I tried every ethnicity that is out there's dish(es). I think I have. I've eaten everything from an African rice dish made by someone I worked with (the rice and spices were imported from Liberia) to little meat rolls from the Philipines (I believe they are called Lumpia).
Hmmm...Yorkshire pudding...what's it all about?
David_Paul - New Haven has at least one good Thai restaurant.
