Oh yea, I LOVE jellyfish! I am used to the Taiwanese kind. I haven't tried raw shark *jealous*!
My mom used to force feed me sea cucumber, i hated it even before I knew what it looked like. There are not many foods that I don't like, and this one I HATE! YUK!
I think just the two of us could go on for days....  |
Oh, no. You're no thread killer as long as I'm here. I can gross it up with the best of them!
I will try anything once (I draw the line with eating things still alive, though.), and I've learned a lot of really disgusting-looking food is some of the best stuff ever.
I only had jellyfish this last time I went to Korea. They had it cut in really thin strips and seasoned with something and with vegetables added. I didn't even know what it was at first. I thought it was a root, but when I heard it was jellyfish I just had to taste it. And I really liked it. I've never tried the Taiwanese kind but would like to. How do they prepare it?
You should definitely give raw shark a try. I guess it's not that common in Korea. I've only seen it once, and it was during an anniversary ceremony remembering the death of a friend's loved one. I always get to try the really weird food during those, though, because they go all out. Raw shark didn't really taste like anything to me. It was tougher than most sashimi, but that's all I can really remember about it (well that and I really liked it).
Just the look of the sea cucumber is disgusting. All spiny and slimy and cartilage-y EWWWWW.
That's funny that your mom made you eat it. How horrible! When my mom saw the look on my face, she was the one who told me to spit it out.
And you're right. We definitely could go on and on.
... and it looks like I did. lol
