1. Not sure what I'm missing...
...but I've never tried venison, rabbit or squirrel. I might if the opportunity came up. No frog legs or snails though. Can't handle that stuff.

2. I've never eaten those either
except for the twinkie. I don't think twinkies ever expire- too many preservatives in them. Truly disgusting crap.

4. I've never dated a woman. Been in a real relationship. Felt alive.
As for food, I've eaten more types than those I haven't. Even some disgusting bits of squid, octopus, sheep, cow (stomach), animal brains, and little semi-round things rolling around on a plate.

Even McDonalds is more palatable, and most of theirs tastes like McRoadKill.

I feel like I've never eaten a hamburger.
I have eaten one, lot's of them actually, but it was thirty years ago. I can't remember what it was like. It seems gross.

14. You haven't missed anything...
Edited on Wed Dec-21-05 07:09 PM by mitchum
it's pretty bland and doesn't pass my "does its deliciousness outweight its cruelty?" test. Now, goose liver pate is another story entirely...

15. I figured as much
a friend told me my eggplant tastes "just like veal." I know she meant it as high praise, but since eggplant is practically tofu on the vine (on it's own it tastes like nothing) that was a bit of a giveaway that it's highly overrated stuff.

Of course even if it were the best thing ever, it wouldn't justify the moral evil that goes into it's creation.

17. Don't get me wrong: I like tofu
but it takes some effort to transform it from gelatinous ickiness into something worth eating. Eggplant just may be worse since it needs to be salted first.

19. I have never eaten a corn dog. I cannot stand to even look at
those disgusting things.

I've never had caviar or rabbit either, but I have had duck a few times and it is delicious.

21. I tried calimari and anchovy last night.
Loved the calimari, anchovy...would eat it to keep from starving.
