      And yes, I have tried all of the above.
      Don't hold back now!!

      You don't like apple pie? Isn't that mandatory for americans to like? (you know...as american as apple pie...)


      As for liver, well my mother used to try to trick me..she'd bread it, put gravy on it..whatever trick she could think of...i always knew on the first bite. As an adult i tried it again...nope. all the onions, bacon and steak sauce in the world can't make it edible IMO.

        That is a big list Karen. Some of the things I can understand and some of the things I can't. Pickled pigs feet for example, I think I can understand why you don't like them.....

        But lamb and duck I don't understand. But its obviously down to the individual.

        I think I would quite like to give pickled rattlesnake ago.

                    There are TONS of foods I've never tried that gross me out (just the thought) - liver, pigs feet, duck, lamb, sushi, etc.

                    The following are things I've eaten and cannot stand:
                    Mayonaise
                    Thousand Island Dressing
                    Onions (raw, cooked are tolerable)
                    Hot Dogs
                    Tuna (by far the worst)
                    Celery
                    Green Beans
                    Sweet Pickles

                        I am glad I am not grossed out easily ..I will eat or taste anything 3 times 3 differing ways before I rule it out as a food ......however that sea squirt was something ....and I have yet to give it another two tries that is for sure ....but if offered it I would try it again ...

                        honestly ...Fast food grosses me out completely ....the whole idea of it being food ....but since I don't eat any of it it is not fair to say it really makes me cack...

                        the sea squirt makes me cack...

                        so does flax seed anything ....and I have tried that many ways as well...that is nasty stuff imho

                            You actually cannot compare the two. I have no idea how to describe it, except, it's delicious! I never ever ever ever enjoyed milk until I went to stay at a friends farm in NY right after highschool.
