I will try anything TWICE b/c sometimes the first time it could have been prepared wrong. Heh heh. And yes, I draw the line at eating anything that is still alive, but I'm sure if I had enough nerve to try it, it's prob good.
Well the Taiwanese style jellyfish is more spicy and a little more sour than the Korean style. It is also sliced thin with bamboo shoots and carrots also sliced thin. Yummy!!! I usually add more vinegar cuz I love sour! Well maybe not more spicy sometimes, cuz the Koreans love their chilies!
Oh do you eat crab and lobster *brains*? Hee hee when it's good it's so nice and sweet n creamy!
We are going to have to have a *gross out* contest! LOL |
I'm not sure I've ever had uni! I'm going to have to try that the next time I go to a sushi restaurant. I really love toro. It's probably one of my favourite sashimi dishes. (I find liking gross-looking or gross-sounding things is really for our benefit. It always ends with more for us.

)
I don't think I've ever had tongue! I totally want to try!
I have had pig's feet (which isn't that odd) and frog's feet (although I can't remember what it tasted like). I've had cooked snail, which also isn't that odd.
I've never had crab and lobster brains! Aren't crab brains tiny? Like the size of a pea or something? Well, regardless, I've got to add that to the list, too.
I've had raw crab, which is absolutely delicious. I get it at the Korean market and they spice it up to death. It's so slimy and YUM!
Have you ever had lamb fries? There's this book called the 1000 places to go before you die. When I lived in Oklahoma City, a friend there had the book and there was only one location in Oklahoma in the book. We went to Cattlemen's (I think that's what it was called) and the book said to eat their lamb fries. They're lamb balls.

And delicious. They cut it up and fry it to where it kind of looks like calamari. You dip it in this sweet sauce, and I have to say it's not that bad.
I think I've named all the gross things I've tried! So if you are able to think of more, I'm going to have to call you the winner of this gross-out contest!
