Mmm. . .Mmm. . .Good!
Someone, somewhere, sometime once said, "To each his own."
And before you click through the link below, take a deep breath, a sip of cold water, put away whatever delectable goody you might be nibbling on at the moment and remember the above words.
In less civilized times man was simply a survivor and as he gained intelligence, language, skill and dispersed across our fair planet as a result of travel, war, displacement, disease, conquering or being conquered, his diet and well-being improved over the eons of time since the first predecessors of man appeared.
The challenge of life breeds necessity and from that many wonderful creations, ideas, inventions and serendipitous discoveries have been curated, incubated, and this culmination of general knowledge has been passed down through thousands of years via culture and custom.
In our modern era of pre-packaged foods, Happy Meals, convenience stores and general slothiness we have lost much of that culture and custom when it comes to our foods. But fear not, there are still plenty of people eating horrifying things all over planet earth.
And through the modern miracle that is the internet, I bring you the 10 worst foods ever.
I just threw up in my mouth......
Tbone
Did it taste like boiled embryonic duck eggs?
Toast - I had a hangover when I read this yesterday. Big mistake! I'm all better now but I'm not gonna read it again.
Greasy, when I was in culinary school we had this nutty Korean chef who looked like Kam Fong from Hawaii Five-O.
Anyway, he brought some of those duck eggs to school one day and another Asian culinary delight called 100 Year Old Eggs. Or 1000 Year Old Eggs or even Century Eggs.
From the name you might infer that it is some nasty shit. And you'd be right. I tried a little and the taste? Well, I can still taste it. Imagine maybe, licking a rear-endus of a road-killed skunk or something. Simply foul!
Maybe one day I'll tell you about the freeze-dried cockroaches they use to sell in the Chinese grocery in West Palm Beach.
