Bombay mix is an unusual one!

It's beyond fermented!

But...but...but... okra and asparagus are delicious! No doubt at all about the sprouts, though, and most kinds of pickles are fairly revolting.

Just okra, yuck!

Really?? I could eat olives by the pound

I have a friend like you - she absolutely detests mushrooms and wouldn't even eat from a plate with a mushroom on it, suggesting her hatred is due to something more profound than taste such as poison or death and decay. Personally, I love them!

Another favorite food of mine

I once cooked #turkeyliver for a group of 70+ year old diehard liver hating scoffing country women used to lamb and beef muscle (see "Food Glorious Food" for details of cooking #turkeyliver). Without exception all changed their revulsion of liver to one of "can I have another piece please".

If you did not like #Vegemite have you tried the English alternative #Marmite? Australians, I'm told like #Vegemite mixed with #PeanutButter. Personally I think that a waste of each product.

I've had beef liver turkey, chicken liver, chopped, fried, any way possible. Grew up in a Jewish household, so that was kind of a staple. Never tried turkey liver, but I would consider it. I never say never!

@bleurowz very sweet, very mild flavour and cut with your fork tender if prepared correctly.

I love vegemite. We make friends from overseas taste it by the spoonful.

We never have it on it's own. I always have it on toast. Most have it on toast and butter.

@FrayedBear "if prepared correctly" is the key to all liver. Overcook it even a second or a degree and it's disgusting.

@ElizabethI exactly.

With or without pineapple pieces?

I love sushi!! In fact, I think that might be lunch today.

@HippieChick58 Fine, you can buy me a hotdog.

@Whathappensnow I'd rather buy something less processed and more natural. But if you insist.

@Whathappensnow LOL I wonder if you'd feel the same way if you witnessed how that hot dog came to be. ????

@MollyBell I actually worked in a butcher shop for just under a year, when I was 18. One of my jobs was making sausages. I know exactly what goes in them.

@Whathappensnow I stand corrected, then.

Join "Food Glorious Food" & learn all about the beauty of turkey liver. Pig's trotters however I agree with you are in line with tripe!

@FrayedBear My grandfather used to eat pigs feet all the time. It was GROSS!

Shudder! I was anemic as a little kid and was forced to eat liver. Ugh **** 1000.

@Ohub And probably badly cooked.

So called curried sausage whole used to leave me non plussed knowing how many beautiful flavours of cooked curry are obtainable. We all have individual tolerances just as some have food allergies of varying danger.

I'm the opposite, I love curry and the spicier the better for me.

@noworry28 ditto

Never tried it, but I'm told that if you can get over the smell and the texture it's delicious. I suppose it must be if people are willing to get over the smell and texture!

And seemingly don't imbibe and eat durian - it may kill you.

That's what you think. The devil could be standing there prodding me with his pitchfork and I still wouldn't eat pork brains in milk gravy or cheese with maggots in it.

Rumoured to be delicious, but I know what you mean - I couldn't cope with the bones any more than the drowning part.

Lutefisk is awesome...the smoke flavor is lovely as is the cream sauce...mmm! Ever tasted FinninHaddie?..that's a smoked white fish dish as well..

@Charlene And Arbroath smokies!

@FrayedBear whats that?

@Charlene Arbroath is on the East Coast of Scotland. The smokie is a haddock smoked.

Sounds like it did you a lot of good.

fully developed chicks in the eggshell

@LeighShelton they would be tender but i imagine tasteless.

I eat with my eyes and mind first so probably not the worst by far but just seem like it. let's face it some medicine is fucking disgusting.

If i remember it has very little flavour just a soft slimy consistancy. I found tripe worse.

@FrayedBear That sums it up. It's one of those things that people made from the cheapest ingredients available and which somehow became a tradition even though most people can afford food that they actually enjoy eating nowadays.

@Jnei In England it was simply a case during the war of making use of everything because of rationing and scarcity. I could be wrong but recall reading that tripe and trotters did not count towards the weekly meat allotment.

@FrayedBear My grandmother, even in the early 1980s, still cooked a few things from the rationing era. Scrap cake, which was made of whatever you happened to have left over at the end of the week, was sometimes very good indeed - kind of like bread pudding but with occasional surprises like lumps of Yorkshire pudding mixed in.

@FrayedBear Pickled pig's feet are delicious.

@ElizabethI Each unto their own palate @Elizabethl. I have just been talking elsewhere of people eating their own ear wax and catarh. I also recall an Indian Prime Minister drinking his own urine each morning which also reminds me that mother gorillas eat their babies faeces in order to develop antibodies to pass through the milk to help the baby overcome infection.
