Everyone has something that makes them want to wretch at the thought off. With me it's snails. far to slimey to bite into, cooked or not! I've eaten a plateful of baby squid, squid cooked in it's own ink and goat but i draw the line at snails! What makes you run for the bathroom or what have you eaten that would make a blind man with no taste buds who had not eaten for a month feel sick?

hello ajk111.... :) i never eat snails before but i would love try to eat once... i love seafood, they taste great... d(^_^)b in indonesia, it’s normal too eat food like chicken claws, durian, snake’s meat & blood, biawak’s meat, sheep’s brain, dog’s meat, rabbit’s meat, frog’s meat (it’s known as Swikee), etc... i love to eat those food, they taste great... d(^_^)b i ate biawak’s meat once, dog’s and rabbit’s meat 4 times.. but i never try the snake’s meat & drink the blood cos it’s quite expensive in here... snake blood is also known as an aphrodisiac and a sort of natural viagra for men... the most thing i afraid to eat is frog or known as swikee... it taste great but i dont like the frog’ body shape... it looks like a baby’s body to me... .

I could never eat dog meat. I think that it is cruel. Dog's are beautiful animals and do not deserve to be eaten as food. The same as I would never eat cat. Cat's are my favorite animals and I could not eat them. I also do not eat lamb often because I love seeing them in the fields. If I can avoid eating meat then I try to.

So are cows, pigs, and chickens. Sure, they're smelly and not "household pets" but they are still beautiful animals. So, if it's okay to eat them, then it should also be okay to eat any animal in my opinion.

The thing that makes me want to wretch at the thought of it is olives. The green ones are the worst I have a phobia about them. Even talking about them is making me feel sick. Although I could never imagine eating snails. The thought of those slimy critters is all too much. Olives make me run for the bathroom though.

i can eat almost anything but i detest olives! i would eat a snail before eating another olive. Isdshrooms, that sounds interesting, i'll give that a try.

Have you ever tried frying olives? Sounds gross but it gives it a salty-sweet, flaky texture that's really good! Other than that, I can understand where you're coming from.

Actually I love squid ink fried rice (i don't the actual name of it though). Well I can't think of anything right now but there are plenty that I wouldn't eat. It's strange but I don't like mushrooms and it'd be good if i never had to eat them.

I'll be happy to accept the offer

i'll swap you a plate of ink squid rice for a bowl of mushrooms yum!

Anything of that sort makes me want to throw up. Snails, mussels, oysters and so on. I think it's texture. I can't bear the thought of lumps of slime, and I absolutely can't swallow things whole (I'm useless with pills too). I don't much fancy squid (I've seen it in jars, lots of little tentacles) but goat wouldn't worry me at all. I've had ostrich (yummy) and alligator (chewy and not very tasty) and kangaroo (okay).

i never eat snails before.. but i love to eat clamps, squids, and fish too... ^^ i never eat ostrich and kangoroo too cos we dont have kangoroo in indonesia, and ostrich is protected...

hi Katieh, i tried kangaroo once but found the meat a bit springy.

I agree with you there. If the texture in my mouth is unpleasant, I don't want it down my throat! :D I am amazed at my family, they'd eat anything and they don't get it when I say I don't like the food's texture. -___-"

ajk oh cowbrains by all means. just thinking about it makes my stomach twist up. I was served this once as a child and I just could not eat it 'as it even looked pukey and tasted even worse.nobody should ever try to make a child eat the offal from cows like that. They were going to t ry to force me to eat it but gave up when my granddad told them that was inhumane and the stuff made him ill to look at it.let alone even taste it.I need touched the stuff again. I also detest cow heart so never buy it at all. somethings are not for eating at all. yuck and dou ble yuck.
@ajk111 (2495)

yeah, not sure if that is in what we call f.a.g.g.o.ts, which are okay if smothered in gravey! lol! but offal is truely awful!

I am really a picky type of person and theres a lot of food that make me eek. Well to top that off, this is weird but I really don't like fish. I only eat it when its fried and it has a clear crystal soup in it. I don't want it fishy, i totally hate the smell of it. But i also wish I'll learn to eat fish too, because I must.
@ajk111 (2495)

you are not alone, there are a lot of people saying they do not like fish. you are in good company!

Snails, mussels, rabbit, fish, squid, lobster, goat, sheep, lamb, dog, horse, worms etc..etc.. the list can be endless. Shows I am a picky eater huh? lol I am allergic to any seafood so that I do not miss. The thought of another anaphalactic shock keeps me away from them. I will eat steak, chicken, beef and anything simple. With the so many things I will not eat it is a wonder I am not vegetarian.

I can actually cook lamb and some who have eaten say it is very yummy but I am still one of those snickery kids at heart and say gross. lol

ewwwwww! Ajk... The thought of snails is freaking me out! Nowhere in the world and not in any situation would i even think about having a plateful of snails in front of me! EEk! Recently one of my friends went to South Africa, she told me she tried fried cockroaches. OMG! I couldn't believe she actually TRIED it! Damn! I find cockroaches creepy! Being a vegetarian,i would hate to eat any animal or creature... But the thought of eating cockroaches would totally make me mad!

Fish. Yes fish. When I was pregnant with my son the smell of fish didn't agree with me. I'd go visit my grandma and she made a lot of fish. The smell nauseated me so bad i'd end up sick for the rest of the day. Since then, if I smell it or if I eat anything that even slightly tastes like it... I'm done.
@ajk111 (2495)

i can understand that. when i was 14 i worked on a boat that took people out sea fishing, my job was to gut the fish and cut up bait. boy! did i stink!

Liver....I had to eat it when I was a kid and couldn't stand the taste of it. I used to hide it under my mashed potatoes and put my veggie on top then try to swallow it whole....I never made my kids eat it....it makes me want to puke!
@ajk111 (2495)

lol! i eat liver because of the vitimin content but there is so little you can do with it to disguise it's grossness! lol!

I will not eat octopus tentacle again. it was rubbery and there were suction cups on it and it just gives me the heebie jeebies thinking about it. I am not a fan of most sushi's, but will eat if there is nothing else available.

have you tried snails?
8 May 11
The three grossest things I've ever eaten ----- crocodile, zebra and ostrich! Eaten all in the same day whilst in Africa. The crocodile was bearable as it sort of tasted like chicken (a fishy chicken) but the other two were awful...not just taste-wise, the thought of what I was eating just put me off!!
@ajk111 (2495)

hats off for trying it. i guess to the indiginous people that would be normal for them.
