Originally posted by Jean Poitiers I have never ceased to be amazed at what some people will eat. Certainly for me, most organs are not on the menu. Wife 1.0 had a thing for pickled pigs feet.
Yeck!
Yet she had a severe dislike for hot dogs. She called them mystery meat, eyes, ears, lips, noses and a**holes. She was a funny woman.
Many years ago when still working as a mechaninc I was out of town at a hydraulic school with two fellow mechanics. Since the company was paying for lodging and meals we went to the better eating establishments. On one such night at a place called Salty's On the Columbia, a seafood place, I have a nice salmon fillet. One of the other guys is from Montana, and never developed a taste for anything but beef, and Fillet Mignon was the only beef on the menu. When it came he sliced the braised portions off and refused the rest, but the other guy and I scarfed it right up.
Now the other guy is from Fiji, half Fijian and half Himalayan. Because of his ethnic and geographic origin he has a much broader palette. Escargot was on the menu, and he ordered it. When it came he offered us a taste. I had one, and the butter and garlic certainly made it palatable, but just the thought was enough to keep me from adding it to my list of foods I will eat again.
The guy from Montana not only refused the offer of escargot, he also went back to the motel hungry because he would not eat the red portion of his steak.

No.
Well, maybe.
On second thought, no.
Has anyone here ever tried chocolate covered crickets? I hear they are crunchy and have a nice nutty taste.
