What is a common food you have never tasted?

Stuff my wife never heard of before she met me - fried egg sandwiches, scrapple (like goetta but betta), soft crab sandwiches.

 

Stuff I never heard of before I met her - chocolate gravy, combination, transparent pie.

I'll eat about anything. Wish I had some photos of the breakfast bar that was in front of me the last week in Hong Kong. Tired to do a little something different every day. There were a few items I intentially passed on. Also ate at the mall food court every lunch. All local foods. Several items I had no c,use what they were.

I have never tried them. No aversion to them. Just never had them.

 

I've never had frog legs either.

 

Buffalo frog legs are awesome.

With the seafood talk it reminds me, there is one somewhat common food that I've never tried (unless I was young and don't remember it) but would love to. Crawfish. I'm picky with seafood and like it as fresh as possible, which means not frozen. When I was working in Louisiana, I tried to find fresh crawfish given that they love them down there, but apparently they were out of season and I was told to wait until they're back in season so I can try them fresh. By the time they were in season I had been relocated to Wisconsin. So I have yet to try fresh crawfish.

 

Love me some mud bugs.

Plain 'ole eggs. The smell of eggs being cooked makes me nauseous, so I've never just eaten one. Not scrambled, not sunny-side up, not poached, and so on.

 

I figured I was the only one. Hard boiled-I have to leave the house.

I can only eat scrambled eggs or maybe a very well done fried egg with the yolk broken up and mixed in a bit. I could never eat eggs over easy, etc.

 

I am completely with you on hard boiled eggs. Just the smell of them makes me nauseous.

I see a fried egg sandwich in my immediate future after reading so much about eggs. :up:

I wonder who saw an egg laid and decided that might be something good to eat.:lol2:

Same guy who thought an oyster or a lobster would be good to eat. Lot of trial an error in the early days. @mcpapa could probably vouch for that?

Sardines and anchovies. Also, kimchi and ramps. Just can't get past the stench and fish eyes.

I never had a brussel sprout until a few years ago and now I love them if they're roasted. Salazar's on OTR has some GREAT sprouts.

 

The only thing I eat "pickled" is pickles. Nothing else.

I had something new for breakfast this morning. Pickled egg sandwich.

 

I had a bunch of pickled eggs left over from the holidays and I am trying to find new ways to enjoy them.

 

This was pretty good. I cut the egg up and put it on toast, added some salt and pepper and a little Hellman's. I think I might make some pickled egg salad.
