Yuk!!! Black pudding. I'd forgotten that one. I am partial to a bit of Haggis though. There's a brilliant chippy in Fort William which does fantastic battered haggis....yum.:D

Lobster isn't really like crab much and actually has a stronger taste.

I've tried most things and can honestly say that there are very few things that I dislike - in fact, curries that are too hot (love milder ones) and bananas (but only because they're slimy and not because of the taste) and that's about it - love haggis, black pudding, squid, frogs legs, snails, curry, in fact, most of the things that everyone else has listed.

I'm forever having a go at Chris because he won't try new stuff whereas I'll always give everything a go once.

I cant stand any sea food exept for tinned salmon. Black puddin and haggis ewww.
Parmisan cheese smells like sweaty socks.
Don't like any veggies except for carrots, tomatoes, cabbage, baby cabbages, onions, potatoes ( mashed or baked ) oh and lettuce an beetroot.
The only meat I like plain cooked is steak, bacon and boild ham. I can take or leave chicken no skin.

I'm like Gayle, I eat just about everything - except Angel Delight. I love offal (liver, kidneys, raw tripe, mmmmmm!), relish all green vegetables especially spinach, will eat all breeds of "foreign" food, adore all shellfish (I will kill for an oyster) and I like my meat rare and bloody.

My husband was just like me and, in his travels around the world, ate and enjoyed things you wouldn't want to know too much about. When we were in Riyadh, though, we used to go to a Fillipino restaurant. The waiters there were lovely and always explained what was on the menu - except for one dish. When asked what this was they always said, "English don't like". There was only one interpretation, of course, and I could never have eaten it in a million years. Yes, you guessed. :(

There is a variation in likes and dislike s here some down to the cruelty of school. :eek: At the end of the day like Gayle I will try anything because if you dont how can you say you dont like it? I wonder how much of the offal hating goes back to when these people were younger?

Oh Anne - liver and bacon in rich, thick gravy; kidneys and mushrooms flambeaud in brandy and served in a red wine and cream sauce. You don't know what you're missing. :)

Tripe - I'll allow. It's an acquired taste, you either like it or you don't, and I can only eat it raw. :D

No, no, I haven't guessed - tell me, tell me!

PS - Angel Delight, yes, I'd forgotten that - not a particular favourite of mine but then again I don't really class it as food. It's more the result of a chemical experiment!

Kate, you're welcome any time - I like cabernet sauvignon. ;)

Gayle, you really don't want me to tell you, let's just say "woof". I'm afraid the Fillipinos regard it as a delicacy. :(

Gayle 08-08-2006 21:51

Re: so..........what food makes you puke at the thought of it
 
Ah, now I understand. Surely it just tastes like chicken or beef. Wouldn't bother me, I eat meat so I don't think I can judge anyone else for eating dog or horse meat when I'd quite happily chomp into a slice of cow!

Re: so..........what food makes you puke at the thought of it
 
It's the emotional thing with me, I'm afraid. My husband and his colleague adopted a little stray dog that hung around their office in Riyadh. They called her Sexy, as she was always "humping" your leg, and they fed her and fussed her and made her a little kennel. They had to go to Jeddah on business and left the Fillipino engineers in charge for a few days. When they got back there was no sign of Sexy - the Fillipinos had eaten her. When questioned the engineers smiled, sympathetically, and shrugged. Different culture, different tastes, but it was upsetting for us soft Westerners.
