YES! Thank you!
(I am not alone)
On the grill, like our cavemen forefathers (at least the ones in Poland).
To be fair, that sounds like a horrible combination.
Broodje haring met uitjes. (Soused herring in a bread roll with raw onion, the way the Dutch eat it). Or even herring on its own, held by the tail and dangled above and into your upturned mouth! My husband can’t stand it but he hates all seafood.
Also a lot of molluscs such as oysters and mussels raw or lightly steamed.
Yep, scrapple here, too.
I pretty much eat a more “paleo” diet these days, but scrapple is my weakness and preferred go-to breakfast meat and all-around sandwich and egg/breakfast sandwich topping.
Where I grew up even baseball stadiums had scrapple sandwich stands and it was something fairly common. I like it in more unusual ways (I think) like on different types of bagels with rarer cheeses.
It helps (my diet) that only 1 store in my area carries it and it’s not a preferred brand.
I got that reference!
I like tripe and tendon. My ex always used to judge me for eating that, but he was really judgemental about other things as well. I also like sushi, but that’s normal around here.
I would never eat scrapple, though.
Eat them up, yum!
When I lived in a rooming house in college, one of my house mates was fond of cooking chitterlings (chitlins) in the kitchen. The rest of us found other places to be, for the entire day.
And when I was in the UK, I forced myself to swallow one tiny bite of haggis. Then I tried vegetarian haggis, made with oatmeal. Somehow they managed to capture the “flavor” of the real thing. One of the very few foods I won’t eat again.
I like mussels, which seems to gross out everyone I know.
Rollmöpse is the best way to eat (picled) herring.
The only food I regularly eat that gets a “How can you eat that” reaction isthe Gatsby. Probably because I’m eating the whole thing.
Marmite, probably. Though it’s NZ Marmite, which isn’t the same as UK Marmite, or Aus Vegemite. But still an acquired taste. I like* it on hot buttered toast.
*huge understatement
Oddly enough, that’s why I will eat but not seek out black sausage. The first time I had it I was not expecting it to be so mild because people said that it tasted of iron-y bloodness but you have to really be looking for that taste to notice it. Now I will eat it if offered since it just tastes like really mild sausage.
One of the few times I’ve had someone beyond age 9 actually “eww” over my food, it was my American boss, in the US and in a restaurant he had chosen, specializing in fish and shellfish. Him and the other two Americans in the group declared my meal “eww” but were outvoted by a bunch of foreigners who declared it perfectly normal and started reciting names of shellfish we liked. All three were very-inland-Americans, I think none of them had ever seen any cephalopods in person before and hadn’t realized that “shellfish” includes things that have the shell inside. I actually went “boo” at him while waving my cuttlefish-laden fork.
There’s been other times I’ve been with people who encountered a cooked cephalopod by the first time but they weren’t infantile enough to go “eww”, mostly they asked questions and decided if they wanted to try it or not.
Thank you, I’d been trying to remember their English name for days and couldn’t. It’s one of the standard offering in the snacks machine at work, my coworker loves them. “Nom nom… are these things healthy? They can’t be very healthy… nom nom… huh, it’s finished! Damn!”
I once read a high protein diet book that recommended a breakfast of coffee with butter in it. My initial thought was EEEWWWWWW. My morning drink is dark roast coffee with sweetner and light cream added.
I love those things. Any pickled sausages, really. I grew up near a little mom & pop store that kept a gallon jar of them sitting on the counter for what seemed like years at a time. They’d fish them out of the Red #5 flavored vinegar with a pair of metal tongs that never got washed, just dried off after every dunk, and wrap them in a piece of butcher paper that leaked all over everything. My mother had forbidden me from eating them because they were “bad for you” so of course that meant I spent all the pocket money I had on them and made sure to eat them all before I got home.
Surprised there hasn’t been any mention of lutefisk. For an otherwise reasonable people, Scandinavians seem to have a propensity for disgusting foods which are all variations of a fish left somewhere and forgotten for a couple of months…
I was an early adopter of sushi. In the 70s/80s many people around here were shocked by the idea.
Also mett, a German raw minced pork dish. My brother introduced me to it after he lived in Germany for a while. It’s really good, but it freaks people out.
For the campers, hikers, the off-the-grid folks and the intensely curious, scrapple(bacon too) IS available in cans. You’ll come to appreciate it during Nuclear Winter. 
Yeah, I only eat them fresh from the chacuterie near me these days, never the packaged ones. They’ll put different seasoning on them upon request: Old Bay for the Win!
