Is there anything you've never eaten but want to try?

[bluemoon]

Never eaten a tomato. I've grown millions (well all right then, thousands) and every year I try one, but I just don't like them. I've tried just about every variety going in a desperate quest for a tom I can eat, but no luck. They always look so delicious... but then I take a bite and yeeeeeeeuuuuuk. My mum is the same with mushrooms, loves the look and smell, can't bear the taste.

Are we talking about 'British' food here??

I think I've tasted most things- can't think of anything at the moment I've not had and would like to try.
Up until 3 yrs ago I'd never tried truffles and always fancied a taste....and when I did was really disappointed by the flavour.

Of course here in France there are quite a few things I've not yet tried ( not knowing what they are or how to prepare them!!!)

Things I don't fancy are pigs ears ( V popular in Spain I believe), chickens feet and heads, eyeballs, widgery grubs ,you know..the standard 'yukky'bits !

2 unusual things I'd like to taste- but wouldn't out of principle - would be whale and mammoth() ...nor bush meat.

Not eaten ostrich egg...wouldn't mind having a taste just to see what it's like!

Not really a coffee drinker but wouldn't mind trying some Kopi Luwak, something I wouldnt try is calves brains, I saw someone eating it at a french restaurant and had to look away and not because of their eating habits either

[kiwirach]

I've never eaten tripe, snails, offal of any description, black pudding and most seafood. And I never intend to change that

this pretty much sums me up as well........yuk city!

Oysters, just do not appeal. Make me think of snot, or man fluid.

i'm sorry but, pmsl

I've eaten most Western food stuffs - and I like to think I'll give anything a go once.

I'm not sure I'd be keen to accept an invite to a barbecue at Bear Grylls house, or that I'd eat many of the things shown on I'm a Slebrity, but I've yet to see anything on a menu that repulses me.

At the risk of upsetting a number of people - I quite fancy trying horse.

[FionaH]

I wouldnt eat horse, too much like eting a friend! They are doing buffalo at a pub near here, might try that

Very dry in my experience.

[OverWyreGrower]

I'll eat quite a bit (including most offal - liver and onions, yum!), but don't like seafood!

Would try most meats, including horse, but probably wouldn't eat brains or feet

Apart from the snails - they are all magnificent.

The bits that the rich people throw away are often converted into wonderful meals by the enterprising poor. Ok that doesn't apply now but it did.

Vegetarian foods in countries with a strong 'peasant' culture are brilliant and tasty. Here we have black puddings, cheese and potato pies, cheese and onion peis, many offal dishes etc. for 'peasant foods'. Try them before you knock them, people!

LadyWayne's Grandad was a butcher once upon a time and used to buy whole pigs etc and butcher them himself. As a result he would use the whole thing.

Unfortunately he died before LW and I met, but I would have loved to of learned from him - and he was a keen grower too. Such a shame our lives never met.

Slaps Wayne very hard!

My Dad says it's like Beef, but sweeter. He'll eat anything.

Hey, when I was a child a horse bit me (very hard), it's time for payback!

Who would you share with if you didn't like it, and could you eat a whole one even if you did like it?

Ate horse years ago in France and it was rather tough but think that was the way it was cooked rather than a reflection on the actual meat. Tried donkey in China a couple of years ago and that was quite nice, a bit like a cross between lamb and beef. Didn't eat the dog caserole that was served up later in the day though but mainly cos it was swimming in grease. As far as what animals we will and won't eat, most of it is cultural, I'm more concerned with striving to eat meat that has been properly cared for and humanely killed (yes, I know this is unlikely for said donkey!) than getting concerned that somebody, somewhere might have the same animal as a pet.

Re offal and seafood, most of both are really nice if cooked properly.
