The Omnivore 100
I’m all about trying everything once, especially when it comes to FOOD. I think the hardest thing for me to eat was escargot. I just don’t like the thought of eating something like that but I did it! I think I’d have to draw a line at insects though. That’s a no go for me. Anyways, the blog A Very Good Taste has created an Omnivore 100 that they think every person should eat. I’ll definitely have to attempt to eat all of these! Except for the roadkill one…does anyone actually serve that??

I don’t think I’ll ever eat fugu or roadkill!
Are you sure you haven’t had paneer and bagna cauda? they serve bagna cauda at the stinking rose, if I’m thinking of the correct one.
