Oh, I know some people love it, and more power to them. Like I said, I love haggis, so who am I to talk.

But every time I've had foie gras, I feel like Tom Hanks in "Big," where he starts trying to scrape the food off his tongue. Just doesn't do it for me.

Do you eat tiny corn like Tom Hanks,too?:p

33girl, you mentioned scrapple. I haven't had that, nor from RaggedyAndy's description, will I probably ever. I have had dandelion salad soaked in bacon fat dressing as the Eastern Pennsylvanians do. It felt like I had sucked on a big stick of butter. Yuck! I would have never tried it if I had known what I was eating.

Has anyone ever had Ugli Fruit?

I know I have, but I was younger, so I can't remember much of it. I just remember laughing at the name!

I once ate an Italian BMT from Subway made by a skilled sandwich artist.

The sad thing is, I've met people who think that it passes for a good Italian sandwich. They also, apparently, have never been to a good Italian deli.

It reminds me of an episode of Anthony Bourdain's show, where he said that the most disgusting food he's ever eaten was a Chicken McNugget.

And this is why you need to come around more often!

Not all the bacteria dies when you cook the food. Boil it, freeze it, nuke it, or whatever, it doesn't matter. Uhmm there's "these things" called "Baterial spores" that will still be there, and in this case the ones found in saliva.

Cheerfulgreek, do you know that kissing a smoker is like licking an ashtray? Yeah, I hear it's just like that. Just like how eating cow tongue is like eating...saliva. And ewwwwwwwwwww SALIVA!

Hahahha why oh why did I read the new posts on this thread before deciding what I want for lunch? I must be a freak or something!

I've got some in my kitchen right now... hubby loves it! :D I don't think I would consider it weird or exotic, though.

It probably is, but I wouldn't know because I've never kissed a smoker. I wouldn't go out with a guy who smoked anyway.

Has anyone tried raw oysters before? I love oysters, but not raw. I once tried them that way but the slime made me gag. I couldn't swallow it. It was SO gross.:( I've seen people eat them raw, and it looked good, at least until I tried it myself. Yuck.
