Do You Eat What You Don't Understand?

[Don_G]

Escargot, Calamari, Zabaglione, Tagine, Bisque, Bernaise....

If I can't prounce it, I don't eat it with looking at how it's prepared.

My fiance thinks fried squid is "romantic."

1. I think fried squid makes great radial tires.

I tried it a few years ago. I'm still chewing it.

2. Obviously you had someone who didn't know how to make calamari

Calamari done right can be fabulous!

[YellowRubberDuckie]

3. Yep...

If you had it and couldn't chew it, you need to beat the person who made it with a big big stick.

6. Let's See

4. Cuisses de grenouilles (frog legs)

I live in Montreal so I eat a lot of weird stuff.

8. We Have A Pond

And I know where to get Dry Ice.

The problem is that there are a lot of bible thumpers here, so can you get a case of "Mad Frog" disease?

Need a "Kentucky Lobster?"

5. but of course! SF Bay Area, y'know?

i'm willing to try anything once... or four or five times ;)

otherwise i would have missed out on some really delicious stuff.

i have come to not like certain ingredients though. can't stand tripe, and sea urchin sushi just makes me nauseous. also red bean ice cream isn't something i enjoy eating.

but if i didn't try it i wouldn't have known that i might like it.

7. Mmmmmm, calimari!

I don't know about romantic, but it's certainly delicious!

Why not try it? You might like it! And even if you don't like it, you should try it from a few different places, since inexperienced or hurried cooks can sometimes ruin it. :)

11. Hot Dogs.

I don't understand what the hell is in them...I just eat 'em.

12. How hungry was the first person to eat a snail

Its just one of those things you gotta ask, what the heck were they thinking?
