The Omnivore's 100

Original with wikipedia links (for things you might not know what they are....) is here.

Here’s what you to do:

1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.

The VGT Omnivore’s Hundred:

1. Venison (I grew up in Vermont it was occasionally unavoidable no matter how much I objected to eating Bambi)
2. Nettle tea
3. Huevos rancheros
4. Steak tartare
5. Crocodile (Copying Traci I'm saying the fried Alligator I ate in New Orleans counts. Tastes like chicken...)

30. Bagna cauda (never even heard of it before, but I would eat this in a second)
31. Wasabi peas
32. Clam chowder in a sourdough bowl (I've had clam chowder in a regular bowl. Does lobster bisque in a sourdough bowl count?)
33. Salted lassi
34. Sauerkraut

36. Cognac with a fat cigar (have had these separately, but not together. need to try this.)

43. Phaal (no, but I totally would if someone wanted to challenge me)

46. Fugu
47. Chicken tikka masala
