How Could ANYONE Put This Stuff In Their MOUTH?!
The 6 Most Disgusting Foods in the World
#6.Escamoles http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...e/anteggs1.jpg From: Mexico. What is it? Escamoles are the eggs of the giant black Liometopum ant, which makes its home in the root systems of maguey and agave plants. Collecting the eggs is a uniquely unpleasant job, since the ants are highly venomous. The eggs have the consistency of cottage cheese. The most popular way to eat them is in a taco with guacamole. Escamoles have a surprisingly pleasant taste: buttery and slightly nutty. This hugely increases the chances that, while in Mexico, you could eat them without realizing you are eating a taco full of ant eggs. Considered to be a rare delicacy and aphrodisiac. Extremely expensive. Danger of this turning up in America: Not sure. #5.Casu Marzu http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...gotcheese1.jpg From: Sardinia, Italy. What is it? Casu Marzu is a sheep's milk cheese that has been deliberately infested by a Piophila casei, the "cheese fly." The result is a maggot-ridden, weeping stink bomb in an advanced state of decomposition. Its translucent larvae are able to jump about 6 inches into the air, making this the only cheese that requires eye protection while eating. The taste is strong enough to burn the tongue, and the larvae themselves pass through the stomach undigested, sometimes surviving long enough to breed in the intestine, where they attempt to bore through the walls, causing vomiting and bloody diarrhea. This cheese is a delicacy in Sardinia, where it is illegal. That's right. It is illegal in the only place where people actually want to eat it. When prodded, it weeps an odorous liquid called lagrima, Sardinian for "tears." If the maggots are still wriggling, then it's okay to eat. If the maggots aren't wriggling, that means the cheese has become toxic. Danger of this turning up in America: Most likely would be illegal here, too, for health reasons. #4.Lutefisk http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6.../lutefisk1.jpg From: Norway. What is it? Lutefisk is a traditional Norwegian dish featuring cod that has been steeped for many days in a solution of lye, until its flesh is caustic enough to dissolve silver cutlery. Lye (potassium hydroxide/sodium hydroxide) is a powerful industrial chemical used for cleaning drains, killing plants, de-budding cow horns, powering batteries and manufacturing biodiesel. Contact with lye can cause chemical burns, permanent scarring and blindness. Danger of this turning up in America: Lutefisk is already more popular in the United States than in Norway. #3.Baby Mice Wine http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6.../micewine1.jpg From: Korea. What is it? Baby mice wine is a traditional Chinese and Korean "health tonic," which apparently tastes like raw gasoline. Little mice, eyes still closed, are stuffed (while still alive) into a bottle of rice wine. They are left to ferment. Danger of this turning up in America: Not very likely. Also, most likely would be illegal here. #2.Pacha http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...heepshead1.jpg From: Iraq. What is it? It's a sheep's head. Boiled. Danger of this turning up in America: Not sure, but who knows? Perhaps. |

#1.Balut http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...duckfetus1.jpg From: The Philippines What is it? Balut are duck eggs that have been incubated until the fetus is all feathery and beaky, and then boiled alive. The bones give the eggs a uniquely crunchy texture. Considered to be a rare delicacy and aphrodisiac. Extremely expensive. They are enjoyed in Cambodia and The Philippines. They are typically sold by street vendors at night, out of buckets of warm sand. Danger of this turning up in America: Not very likely. Another possibly illegal item. My vote goes to #5 for most sickening...#1 would be my second choice. |
Y U C K !!!
|
I think these items would make an excellent Battle Royale challenge.
|
I think no.1 sounds pretty tasty, so long as I didn't have to collect the eggs...
|
I think I am going to blow chunks!! Nasty shit. Thank god I'm poor and can't aford the food of the rich!! :D
|
I though I would eat just about anything!:mad:
Guess what? I was wrong! Ughhhhh! I don't think even Martha Stewart could push these recipes! lol!:( |
I looked at the title of the thread and wondered HOW you were talking to my wife?

Baby MICE WINE?? What in the god damn. Who are the people who invented these foods. Oh my god. This thread horrifies me! Who started this thread? Oh, it was you, Rayne. I hope Bigfoot rattles your windows tonight!
|
mmmmmm:eek:
|
I'd seriously try any of these... life's short, taste it all
I've had the Chinese version of the duck fetus. It's boiled at a slightly earlier stage of development and then pickled. The bones are really soft. Not bad. |

It's not like all the food in the world has suddenly run out.
Let's uhh...keep these in the closets for a possible Apocalypse, shall we? |
I would not try number 5, 4, 1 and definetely not 3. 3 in my opinion is the worst (and cruelest).
I might try the eggs and the sheeps head. |

the sheep's head is just boiled meat
nothing gross about that There used to be a bar in DC (don't know if it's still there, might be) called the Insect Bar and it had an insect appetizer menu. The mealworm wontons were great! I'm still looking forn a place that will serve me Fugu! |
ERGH!!
I didn't read that. :eek: (thinking seriously of postponing lunch by at least a couple hours now) |
Fugu can be dangerous but really the chefs allowed to deal with it have to go through so much training now that you'll likely be fine eating it. If you want to be adventurous Rod you should buy a regular puffer fish (not the low-toxin variety) and make it yourself.
Just kidding, don't do that, some of us like you around here. |
I actually do think using mouse trap is cruel. So is poison. If you do end up with a mouse where it shouldn't be, use one of those things they sell where ithad mouse food in and when the mouse goes for it, they get locked inside. Then, when you check, if there's a mouse inside, you put it out somewhere else (far from where you are at that time).

Fine, but do it humanely. Not drowning in wine of being crushed by a piece of metal.

Now imagine if someone on the "cooking with semen" website did a recipe for one of these dishes.
Seriously though, the two most disgusting foods ever are already available in the US, even at your local supermarket: White hominey and sour kraut. |

Have you ever had sauerkraut at a restaurant? |
Quote:
I make Kraut and Kielbasa with potatoes, all simmered together in the same pot, on a regular basis...I won't eat the barrel-cured stuff (that process would REALLY gross everybody out)...I ONLY use the Vlasic in a jar...It tastes a lot like pickles...My kids won't eat any other kind of sauerkraut either. It's pretty much like this, only ours has potatoes and MUCH more sauerkraut juice in it: http://donnacooks.files.wordpress.co...2/pb040027.jpg |
I ate with someone who did. I had to breathe through my mouth the whole meal because the smell was making me sick to my stomach.
|
I hate onions. I can't eat them in spaghetti, lasagne, pizza, chilli, pie, on hotdogs. The only time I eat them is when they're chopped up finely in burgers. I really hate them!!!
