However, being from the deep south, I LOVE grits. NOT eaten the 'yankee' way with sugar and milk. I would throw that in the trash.  Salt and butter only for me. Some folks don't care for it (like my two grandsons) and some love it with me (like my granddaughter).
I also LOVE boiled peanuts and others won't even try them. But if they did.....they would love them!
So what do you eat that disgusts other people? Got any weird tastes?
My son-in-law eats something called scrapple, which I had never heard of until one of my Jersey trips. UGH!! |
I grew up in Illinois and grits were a breakfast dish with sugar and milk, but I love cheese grits, which my older sister makes. I also love boiled peanuts, which I never tasted until I was grown. I couldn't eat scrapple or something called headcheese because of what's in them or limberger cheese because of how it smells. I love asparagus and brussels sprouts and avacadoes, which some folks here in East Tennessee aren't too fond of. I like avacadoes to eat fresh, not in a dip. I can't stand the smell of squirrel or duck or deer meat. My father didn't go hunting and I didn't develop a taste for wild game. And I can't stand sardines. I can't eat anything that looks back at me! And even though most people in Tennessee love okra, sorry, I can't stand it. Boiled okra is the nastiest stuff I've ever seen.
