Comments:

I can't figure out how to cross out, but I wouldn't eat Fugu, I saw someone eat in on the tv and they weren't too impressed! Therefore I wouldn't think the risk was worth the reward...! 

If you need any more reasons to participate, read all about theOmnivore's 100 here.

Oooh, Lisa!
I'd gladly make you some Mole Poblano if you share your Currywurst!!

Beth said...

wow, that's a lot of stuff you've eaten :D i love curried goat (mutton)

Emily said...

Wow you have been able to tick a lot of the things off the list. I haven't heard of some of them either. I will have to see how many I can tick off too. I will try almost anything once so it could be interesting.

Hey Lo, Currywurst is a huge sausage with curry sauce on it, they sell them on the street in Germany - YUM!

Beth, its a long list, and I'd like to meet the gal who reaches 100! Insects?

Kate, over here mutton is sheep meat, I've eaten that but have yet to sample the delights of the kid variety!
I know it features heavily in african cuisine!

Emily, there are some things on that list that no-one should eat!

Michelle said...

You gotta try a root beer float. Coke is good too, but root beer? Ah, sweet heaven. Pocky is really yummy too! Who wouldn't like thin cracker sticks covered in chocolate! :-)

I saw this on another site too. Very fun. I should take a closer look to see if it is the same list.
