Yes.. sometimes people tend to think some of the things people from another culture eats are disgusting. Well, when I lived in Taiwan, I tried two things that may sound gross to most people (my family included).
Chicken/duck butt: Actually I prefer duck butt, because it has less fat. Chicken's butts are just too oily for my taste.
Chicken testicles: They're like balloons, with a thin membrane outside, and some kind of starchy liquid inside. They're quite expensive, I've only had it once.
So what's the most gross-sounding but good-tasting food you've ever had? Please share with us. |

Surstromming from the north of Sweden (where I grew up), herring that has fermented with a special kind of bacteria, puffing up the tin can so it's like opening a champagne bottle - pffttt - has a very strong and very bad smell, but a completely different very salty and delicious taste... me and my wife were enjoying some of this here on our balcony (in Texas), you wouldn't want to eat this indoors...
...and a couple passing by asked us worriedly if we could smell a gas leak. |

Personally I think twinkies are pretty scary....
Really.
Man... eww. Twinkies. *gag*
I am extremely, very, super-duper picky though and I won't eat anything that's even the slightest bit weird. That topped with the fact that I'm now veggie doesn't leave much room for bizarre delicacies like chicken arse.  |

dr. bang: How do they eat chicken blood? Do they drink it or eat it like a jelly? If it's a jelly, it's pretty much tasteless.
Jezebel: Twinkies are gross. Actually I think all old pastries and cakes are gross, and I wouldn't call them delicacies.. |

That almost made me vommit, roundeye.
However, it is real.
Pro-choice is awesome, and it is my stance on the issue... but god, it is still so sad. |

When I went to my home town of
New Orleans. There was a Indonesian
restraunt a few blocks from my uncles house.
He took me there and ordered
Monkeys Brains.
they actually bring you the head of the monkey.
But the brains inside are cooked.
The head is sort of bowl I guess.
I was like 11 and almost puked when I
saw it. So my uncle made me down alot of
wine and then I tryed it.
It tastes like hamberger and salty eggs.
boring story I know. |

Jello is the most disgusting food on earth. Boiled down bones, hooves, skin, and animal heads rendered down to gelatin. I don't know why the most disgusting, foul byproducts are always passed off to kids as "treats".
"Confectioner's glaze" (Shellac,really) used to be made of processed beetle carapaces too. It went on M&Ms.
Mmmmm! |

I don't know how you can eat chicken brain, considering the size of their head is so small. Monkey brain would make a lot more sense though, but it's still gross.
Actually, I've had monkey brain before, it tastes like noodles. |

ummm.. did I say using pirated software was morally corrupt? I don't think I did, cool guy.
The ability to make decisions for yourself is in fact "awesome", perhaps you'd prefer to be opressed and told exactly what to do? Put on a fucking vale and move to Afghanistan. Lemme guess, you're catholic? |

That fetus stuff is perhaps some of the most disturbing, vile, disgusting shit I have EVER seen.
I am surprised less people have commented on it.
The person doing that should be shot.
SICK FREAKS LIKE THAT WEIGH DOWN HUMANITY AND SHOULD BE REMOVED. |

Surstromming is the most disgusting thing I have ever eaten. However, one day I made the huge mistake of reading the ingredients to Hot Dogs. THAT'S disgusting. |
