Blech

I'd prefer to have boiling oil poured under my nails. (Thanks anyway!)

I echo the sentiment Coco

Seriously - like eating a sandwich made of butt between a couple of dirty socks. Ever smelled your hands after eating a piece of that stuff?

That's how I feel about smoked oysters. Just the smell makes my tummy lurch and, really, do they look like something you should be putting in your mouth?

I agree. Hey! Let's start a despicable foods discussion! I'll go first:

Anchovies. Don't even use the same knife on my piece of pizza.

How about Escargot.......do you know what they really are if you don't use the fancy name?
SNAILS - have you ever seen the trail they leave? And now you are going to put them in your mouth?!?!

Coco, I'm shocked at your antipathy for anchovies, being the krill-eating bird that you are!

And mama, I suspect you've never even tried limburger! Now, how can you say you don't like it if you haven't even tried it?

The only disgusting food I can think of off the top of my head is "lutefisk", a norwegian treat my dad used to try to force on us during the Yuletide season. It's cod fish that's been preserved in lye. It requires two soakings in water in a twenty-four hour period to remove the lye (poisonous) and prepare it for baking. It's baked in an enamel roasting pan with tons of butter. The stench that fills the house during the preparation is incredible! When it's finished, it has a gelatinous texture.

I don't like the harsh words flying out of your beak this morning, Missy bird! Perhaps I'll slip some into your bass shake...you'll feel so invigorated, you'll be begging for limburger at every meal!

Fennel? Have you been aware of this? I do hope you haven't been coerced into serving it off the truck???? I don't think I'm even going to read back - I just don't want to know.

So - aside from the culinary transgressions, how is everyone?

Coco it's wonderful to see you :h

I think I saw this on Man vs. Food or that other program where they dare that dude to eat disgusting things - can't recall the name - there was all this fish hanging to cure in some shed. Except I don't think it was cooked? Maybe I'm just making all this crap up... Anyhoo, I wasn't salivating I can tell you that...

Hi Technie - Didn't see you there!

Despicable foods

Here's another:

Tripe

My mother used to try to feed it to us when we were little. The smell of it cooking could make you hurl.

The Andrew Zimmern program? I saw that, too. It was fermenting shark in Finland or Iceland...Zimmern could barely keep himself from puking!

I'm happy to report that lutefisk is different from that.
