The same as you! I'm really open when it comes to trying new food. I've had things like jellyfish, birds nest, and silkworms before and they were all really good.
i won't eat anything that's still alive, i find it to be unbelievably cruel. i do eat meat, but i won't eat anything that was killed as a baby (like veal, baby pig, etc) because i find that to be equally horrible. otherwise, i'm pretty open to trying new things.
and also octopus, i love octopuses and i could never eat one
Anything that I don't know of, if it smells bad, if it moves like live octopus, if it's *** like liver (liver is so gross), if it's not cooked or is something like a genitalia of an animal LOL
I was a picky eater for most of my life due to poor parenting skills from early childhood thanks to a crappy father. But as I got older I've tried typical stuff you can find in North America. I eat a lot more fish than I used to, I like lamb, I've tried very basic Asian food, but I won't eat game. I didn't grow up on it and it's very bland for me. My dad does because that's what they ate when they had nothing else, whereas my moms side ate fish.
I love Filipino pork spring rolls. My ex's mom made the best ones
If it's squishy, it's not in my house. No thanks. Fat on any meat. Meat that isn't well done. Basically any meat that isn't clean bacon, a filet, or t-bone steak. I'm so picky with meat, it's ridiculous. I usually just don't eat it. Seafood. Ketchup.
And for the love of all things good and well in the world, can we all agree to stop frying mushrooms? Do any of you have noses? Why does the smell not bother anyone else this much? It's absolutely horrid.
When it comes to food, I'd have to say that my line is drawn pretty close to the starvation side of things. This is thanks to my odd condition where nothing I eat seems to stay down if it is not either orange juice or a sandwich. The rest makes me feel bad.
I'm a pretty adventurous eater in terms of random and uncommon foods. Although once I didn't know what I was served was an endangered turtle... I had nightmares after that. I would have to do my research but never again will I eat anything endangered :'(. I wouldn't eat anything too spicy for me to handle, or something that's alive. Smelly foods don't really bother me and they usually are delicious (petai anyone?). Same with bugs. Most insects, if cooked right, just taste like crisps or something light to snack on.
I'm super picky so if it smells bad, it's an automatic no. Or if it has cheese on it, I'm out.
Or basically any Italian food will make me run away. I just don't like pasta/spaghetti/ MOST pizza/ ravioli
and mac n cheese (but thats not italian lol)
Or like anything alive or even the slightest bit bloody. Ew.
I won't eat organs or face meat from animals. No eyes, no tongue, no brains. And again, no organs.
I'm allergic to squash and pears, but that's really not a line.
I also won't eat products of cruelty. I know it doesn't help, and I know I wouldn't be able to "taste cruelty" or whatever, but things like balut, foie gras, or even veal, I can't bring myself to eat.
