Andrew Wheeler posted this challenge on the Very Good Taste blog. Here are the rules:
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.
4) Optional extra: Post a comment at www.verygoodtaste.co.uk linking to your results.
For the most part, where something is neither bold nor crossed out, you may assume I'm eager to try the food item in question at least once, whenever the opportunity presents itself. I've also added a few notes. Wheeler's original post includes links to descriptions of some of the more obscure items.
