What is BY FAR the grossest thing you ever eaten?

[aefibird]

I have to admit to a liking for haggis, even though the thought of it is a bit gross. I also like "black pudding" , which is dried pigs blood in skin. The grossest thing I've ever eaten was a 'stew' that I had when I was in Ghana. It had chicken in it, but it wasn't prime breast meat I tell ya!! I also ate snake on a visit to Tanzania; it's quite nice actually.

well, disgust is a pretty complex subject and purely depends on the culture.

all sorts of cow insides.

 

chicken feet.

 

duck feet.

Given no choice i'd say squid. I eat it faily often and it can be prepared many ways - steamed, deep fried, raw, sauteed etc.

 

Yeah, I've eaten a lot of squid, but I don’t consider it disgusting, however I am highly against horseradish, lol

Man beef is a favorite.mmm

[Patrick]

I have actually had calamari rings, so that is "squid." That's probably the oddest thing I've eaten. I've managed to avoid the rest. If given no other choice, I would eat that again.

Well, hot dogs have intestines on them. And they're grrreat! Why I've half a mind to eat a dozen right now. Except I don't have any.

Calamari rings must be the most gorgeous food ever!

 

Hmm...I'm pretty open minded when it comes to food so I'd probably try most stuff. Black pudding freaks me out though. I'll eat a little bit and then realise what it is and suddenly feel very very ill!

 

When I was younger I used to invent my own sandwich fillings tho, such as: Frozen peas, banana and lemon curd; marmalade, pringles and chocolate.

 

Still cant' understand why people get so grossed out about it all!

[Gloi]

mmm...

 

my favourite sandwich fillings have included

 

cornflakes, banana and chocolate sauce;

 

cheese, chocolate and tinned mandarines;

 

and the old Wigan standard - meat and potato pie and peas on a barm.

[angelica d]

What about left over crispy beef in OK sauce from the takeaway with dark chocolate in a sandwich?!! Mmmmmmm....sandwiches

When I wrote the squid one, I was drawing a blank. I should have put cooked blood. I like eating calamari rings, usually in a japanese sauce with other chopped seafoods. But, alas, I drew a blank and so I remembered all these Ex-Pats who claimed they hated eating squid. So, I put that instead.

 

BTW, cooked pig's blood or chicken blood is quite untasty.
