Show of Hands

Always love trying new foods.

Every year I go to an international dinner, and I try dishes from about 20-25 different countries. All the different flavors and spices have my stomach crying for Pepto by the end of the night, but it sure is a ton of fun!

Deep fried yak milk curds!

For a one-time thing, I'll try the exotic.

Always adventurous on someone else dime. Really don't care to take extreme adventures at my own cost.

One problem I see is that the sense of smell (taste is mostly smell) is most closely connected to memory. In plain English: if a food grosses you out, you'll think about it for a long time.

Mmmmm gator, snails, you name it. I draw the line at jellyfish though.

I had snails for dinner last night.

Depends on the friend and how weird I think they are.

Exotic? Love it? But not eating bizarre creatures, no thank you. Exotic as in ethnic and flavorful or even gastronomy but I don't want toe at a horse or a snail or a cricket.

I usually try something new but there are limits. Iguana or kangaroo is fine, cat or dog maybe, but nobody gets me to try, say, a tarantula kebab except at gunpoint ;)
