At the time (I was 9) I tried escargot, I wasn't at all apprehensive, and nobody told me what it was until I was served...of course, being young, the initial reaction was "gross", but when I actually ate it (I learned from eating grilled baby octopus at an early age, that different things can be quite worthwhile) I enjoyed it, to this day one of my favourite foods.
As for foods I don't like to eat, brussels sprouts (taste like poison), and fresh oysters...I CAN eat them, but don't like to without them being grilled, or fresh, but in ground pepper, a little tobasco, and lemonjuice, the acidity partially cooks it, nice flavour accentuation, but when they're raw, yeck...I still don't see the big deal, and avoid them more often than not...scary? no...a little confusing, yes.
