Now that I’m done, it would have been easier to list the stuff I haven’t eaten.

7

Hey, last time Idle Thoughts had eaten 38 of the listed items. How did his number go down?

8

Huh. And I didn’t realize that he had started the thread before, too.

9

He threw up.

85, I think. I can’t remember if I’ve had alligator, but if I did, it was part of a stew like dish with lots of other flavors, so I won’t count it. And I’ve had Sea Urchin Roe, but that’s cheating.

'Bout the only thing I wouldn’t try (if you were paying for it) is fugu. Just outside my comfort zone, breathing wise.

Never heard of a Bellini, but now I really want one!

I’ve had 66, I think. Not counting again. :stuck_out_tongue: And I am counting sea urchin even though I didn’t have it in a restaurant, but rather broke one open and swallowed it on a dare on the beach.

So, 87 although I may have had Dandelion Wine at some point.

19

Forty-six of them. I’m more adventurous than I thought!

20
  1. Abalone.
    2**. Absinthe**. On a Prague Dopefest. A Doper showed us how to drink it, including the ritual with the soaked sugar cube that you set on fire.
  2. Alligator.
  3. Baba Ghanoush. No, but I want to because it comes up in novels all the time and I hate not getting the reference.
  4. Bagel and Lox
  5. Baklava. Lots of Arabic enthic stores in my neighbourhood and they all carry a wide selection. It’s pastry drenched in sugary hony-like syrup. Much too sweet for my taste.
  6. Barbecue Ribs. The have them at Ikea nowadays. Greasy fingers and lots of bones on your plate afterwards!
  7. Bellini
  8. Bird’s Nest Soup. Not the real kind, no.
  9. Biscuits and Gravy
    11.** Black Pudding.** That’s blood sausage, right? It is kind of a local speciality. I eat it as a quick snack/lunch, baked with pieces of apple, on bread.
    12.** Black Truffle.** Only oil or sauce scented with it. It took me a while to understand what it was supposed to smell and taste like. I kept expecting something heavenly, but it smells like someone left the gas stove open.
    13. Borscht. I make this all the time. It’s a on-the-table-in-5 minutes dish, if they sell cans of boiled beet roots in your supermarket.
    14. Calamari. Those deepfried rings? Yum. A snack sold by many restaurants here.
  10. Carp
    16. Caviar. Yes, in Prague. Ikea sells a cheaper kind of fish roe. and also a vegetarian caviar surrogate made out of seaweed, that is awesome.

    24. Cognac.
  16. Crab Cakes
    26. Crickets. Yes, in a museum exhibit, on a dare.

  35. Jerk Chicken
  36. Kangaroo
  37. Key Lime Pie
  38. Kobe Beef
    58. Lassi. Again something you know if you visit Indian rstaurants. Do they even have those outside big US cities? Lassie is a wonderful, dessert like drink, white, creamy and tasting like mango. I once ordered three glasses with my meal.
  39. Lobster
  40. Mimosa
  41. MoonPie
  42. Morel Mushrooms. I bought them dried and planned to make something impressive with them, but so far it hasn’t happened.
