tbain Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I was thinking about this earlier and was thinking that I have never tried haggis, venison, sharon fruit and artichokes! Will get round to trying most of them someday, although I don't really like the thought of eating venison so will never try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never had scallops but would like to try them, but they look so rubbery Venison is GREAT!! Every time I go to Stockholm I have reindeer steak & we grew up eating moose meat, which is also lush! Also grew up eating scallops & lobster & crab & just about every other fish in the sea, but as I grew older I decided I didn't like these things any more, which was so crazy because I loved them as a kid! Anyway, I digress, lol! Try to get past the "rubbery" appearance - they're buttery soft & very yummy! (recently started re-eating them!

Echo Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I happen to be a very picky eater, so there's a lot I haven't tried. Here are some: sushi, most kinds of fish, asparagus, brussles sprouts, clam chowder, any animal organs (like liver, hearts, things like that), mushrooms, snails, oysters...those are just some of them.

Janet Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I have never had scallops but would like to try them, but they look so rubbery We had scallops last night - they're lush! I've never tried Oysters (salty snot as my friend described them) or snails! I can't think of anything else specific at the moment, although obviously there will be lots of things I've never tried.

Chimera Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 We had scallops last night - they're lush! I've never tried Oysters (salty snot as my friend described them) or snails! Never tried snails either or frog legs, contrary to the french stereotype *laughs* Probably many other things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maureen Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I never have tried foie gras, horse, veal, frogs legs, (nor will I any of those!!) artichokes, caviar or sushi, Angel, horse, when properly cooked (its not an easy dish to cook) is delicious, and a healthy alternative to beef. You should try it someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supergran71 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I like mussels and scallops, but they don't like me:blush: I have never tried snails, oysters and frogs legs. I could possibly be persuaded to try frog's legs, but not the other 2 no not never, not no how:eek2: During WW2 we had rabbit and I remember eating rabbit pie, but for some reason I just don't fancy it now:roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vince Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I've had wild rabbit cooked in a garlic butter, very nice but don't fancy frogs legs or snails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bookwormmum Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I've had snails. They were chopped up and served with garlic butter. It wasn't much different to eating mushrooms. Same sort of texture, but I tiny bit more chewy. I quite liked them. I've never had haggis (but I love black pudding so I guess I might like it), foie gras, horse, veal, frogs legs, rabbit and oysters.I've never tried monkfish either.

supergran71 Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Anyone tried pollock? Its fish similar in texture to cod and I had it in an Italian restaurant earlier this year, it was delicious. I can't find it anywhere to buy it though!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freewheeling Andy Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Snails are yummy. Frogs legs are unexciting. Foie gras is a fantastic food, amongst my favourite things in the world, although it's pretty much indefensible on animal rights grounds, the same as battery chicken. Horse is lovely, but not that much different to other red meats Veal is bloody fantastic, and everyone should eat it (provided it's "dark" veal), as the alternative for bull calves on dairy farms is that they're killed at birth or sent to Italy in horrible conditions Oysters are nasty - salty snot is just right I've never eaten any insects, and although I "want" to have done, I don't know if I could actually force myself.

Haggis is quite peppery, but it's also quite nice. Monkfish is yummy! Andy - fancy a go on "I'm a Celeb"? I'm sure you're at least as famous as most of the contestants and you could have a go at witchety (sp?) grubs - amongst other things!

Jo-Bridge Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 I've never eaten oysters or prawns- just something about them puts me off. My younger brother has just tried eggs for the first time at 25! Luckily I'm not that fussy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
