I’m pretty iron-stomached. And eat a lot of cheese and a lot of beef. Used to eat greasy loaded deep dish pizza without issue. A couple years ago I had a raclette steak for dinner. First time ever. Nice restaurant. Tasted great, albeit the cheese was a ~~little~~ bunch of work to chew. I have not been made that sick from a meal in decades. It was partly overeating, and I guess mostly a monster grease / cheese overdose. I really doubt the food was spoiled or miscooked or anything like that. It wasn’t bad; it and I just did not get along. Not gonna try that again. I’d take a bite or two of somebody else’s as a test, but not gonna order a full meal of it for me. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/something-you-never-tried-and-were-pleasantly-surprised-when-you-finally-did/1025522)._
