lls_mutantI couldn't resist the foodie meme going around.
Instructions:
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.
(go to the original post for Wikipedia links if you don't know what something is)
4) italicize ones you haven't eaten but WANT TO TRY
5) Leave the ones you haven't tried, but are indifferent about
1. Venison I would like to eat this more often, but it's hard to get if you don't hunt.
2. Nettle tea
3. Huevos rancheros I wish I did, but I really don't like eggs.
4. Steak tartare
5. Crocodile- I haven't, but I have tried alligator.
