    I've eaten chicken feet, haggis, blood pudding, sisig, century egg, durian, dinuguan, tripe and tongue tacos, frog legs, snails, alligator, whole softshell crab, and probably a few more delights that I ought to remember. The only one I absolutely cannot stomach is the century egg.

    How was the century egg prepared? I knew some guys in high school that decided to buy random stuff at the asian grocery store and they ate the century egg as if it was a regular boiled egg then threw up. I've had it in small pieces with congee and that was pretty good though.

        bitter melon
        I have never wanted to go back in time and prevent myself from doing something more than in the moment of tasting that wretched vegetable

        it took every shred of my willpower to get it down and not spit it out dramatically (was in polite company)

                How the hell do you wreck lentil soup that bad? Heck, there are lots of different cultures around the world that make tasty lentil soup. There's German lentil soup with potato, carrot, and ham; there's Indian dal in a range of flavors and colors; there's Turkish Ezogelin soup with bulgur and paprika ...

                  It is delicious if you make it right - sweet curry or dry spicy fries.

                      I have no clue. This was a school lunch 25 years ago, and we usually had really good lunch.

                        I literally had it today.

                        I used to hate it like most people, then I understood that most people don't cook it the right way.

                          Witloof, its this variant of cabbage that is long thin and completely white. And it has one of the most pungent bitter tastes ive ever had the misfortune to discover. The taste is hard to describe, but it's similar to bee spit,also known as honey, except replace all the love and care that the bees spat with, with pure malice and wasp hatred. It is incredibly sweet, ungodly bitter and has after cooking the texture of overcooked pasta

                            I'd used it in a recipe to try and make congee, inspired by a pop-up in Seattle called Secret Congee. Theirs is good as hell, but my first try deterred me entirely from that questline.

                                  Properly prepared or improperly prepared?

                                  I had a chicken sandwich once that was still pink in the middle... Disgusting!

                                    I mean there are foods designed to genuinely taste bad, but - keeping to food that I guess is supposed to taste good - I know one of my worst experiences as a kid was with a particular boiled sweet.

                                    I don't know what flavour it was supposed to be, but it tasted like somebody had shoved fly spray in my mouth. It was vile.

                                      I dunno what that means but I'm guessing it's not good. You also did mention Dinuguan which I like also.

                                          Worked for a Japanese company and visited the head office in Tokyo. One of the more senior managers took us to his favorite local sea food restaurant.

                                          I hate seafood. Especially when it's fancy and you get baby squid that looks like they were just fresh out of the water with no preparation etc (part of the "fancy"). However, culturally I had absolutely no possibility to do anything but eat, smile and praise. The courses just kept coming, each one being more disgusting than the last.
