Paté made of insects. They were really trying to make it a thing where I live, but I don't believe it ever caught on. Supposedly an environmentally-friendly protein.
I was raised all over the world and will usually eat/try just about any for. While I was never particularly fond of Sea Cucumber, I met my Waterloo at a Thai street vendor- black scorpions! I will never ever easy them again. Truly vile!
Astra,. I actually liked the crickets! The crickets and the corn popsicles were the only thing that could combat the foul foul taste of the scorpion. I could get enough fried crickets and corn popsicles! I think I had six (corn popsicles, that is!)
@astra. Musty, musky, dirty, pithy, dense. Omg, I can't even come up with descriptors. The worst part was the lingering aftertaste. I couldn't even brush it off my teeth and tongue. It was good to me like a sweater. So, have another corn popsicle! That's a funny story too... There I am 5'10" female buying yet another corn popsicle in a convenient store with myriad Thai ladyboys. They must have thought I was a piece of work!
100%! I might have been the tallest person in Thailand save the Russian tourists! Def try the corn popsicle, they're pretty good! My favorite was the melona/honeydew but they weren't nearly strong enough to cut the scorpion!
Processed cheese, specifically American cheese. The smell of it is so vile it makes me want to puke just thinking of it. Also, cheeseburgers. Love a hamburger but put cheese on it and 🤮
I would like to try Rocky Mountain Oysters at least one time though. I might spit it out before swallowing, but if I can eat chicken gizzard I think I can eat this.
Sweet potatoes. UGH. The texture is so mealy and yuck too sweet. i love raw oysters. Go figure. Horseradish!!!!
I have weird taste buds I guess.
Years ago I had a Papa John's around the corner and they answered the phone HEY ANCHOVY LADY. I would order THIN CRUST CRISPY LIGHT SAUCE ANCHOVY and onion. OMG MOUTH WATERS. something about the salt and the crisp of it. Second only to LOX and cream cheese. mmmmm
Caviar-- i know that makes me a simpleton in a lot of circles, but my mom was preparing hors d'oeuvres for a party, and I grabbed one thinking it was grape jam and cream cheese on a cracker. Nope! I was 7 or 8, and I had the exact same reaction as Tom Hanks in Big did years later. Haven't been able to brave it again since.
Ellie Kay-- I always see those on James Corden's table of horrors...what are they? Techvq-- I gag at sight and thought of that, how bad was it?
My sister sent me a clip the other day of these girls deep frying and eating live tarantulas....I cant imagine! Or those big, thumb-sized live grubs they used to always have to eat on Survivor?😱😫😝
🥓 Bacon. Kidding Enty,though I don’t eat it. I don’t eat meat so I don’t try things most may....but I must say mayonnaise and sour cream make me ill yo even look at after having them a bit when I was young.
Okra that is not fried. Sweet plastic baby jeebus the slime factor. After that, grits it’s like someone scraped the sweaters off their teeth into a bowl. The texture is disgusting.
Escargot and oysters- blech!! Never had and never will- Rabbit. When I was a kid, I didn’t know we ate the animals at my granparent’s farm until the day I’d come in from playing with the bunnies and my grandma happened to be serving one of my playmates. That was a horrible day.
Have you ever seen those videos of the steak with huge pockets of pus? I ate the whole fucking thing then when I called the chef over to ask him what he stuffed the meat with he apologized and explained what happened. I still eat hamburgers. I don't know how the fuck I kept that bad boy down. I'm just glad he comped the meal and gave me a Moqueca to take home in case I purged on the way home. I still go the the restaurant for the challa and a Moqueca. If you're wondering what beef pus tastes like all I can say is it's very creamy. I thought it was a Brie stuffed steak.
Not that I ever have tried bugs, but just reading these bug comments has me seeing bugs creeping all around me.... Ughhhh, I hate hate hate bugs! Lol! We get these prehistoric looking creepy AF bugs, stink bugs, and I swear, I about crawl out of my skin, and if I could melt into the carpet and blob my way under the door and out of the house, and had somewhere else to go, I'd move and let it have my entire house and everything in it, screw it. Lol, luckily though, raid makes a pretty far range stream spray of poison I can hit it with from a good 3 feet away. How anyone can touch bugs, let alone put it into their mouths, I will never ever know. Blahhhhhh... Ughhh... Ehhh.. Ekkk. I'm never going to sleep now, lol!
Gauloise - My father always refused to eat olives of any kind. I just thought he didn't like them until one day he told me that when he was in Italy during WWII and he was hiking through the countryside with no food he ate olives off the trees because he had nothing else. He swore that if survived the war, he would never eat olives again.

Normally a cast iron stomach and adventurous palate, but the mundanity that is Taco Hell turned me inside out within an hour. Never again!
