    Ive never had a falafel. I dont know how common that is though. Im the type of person willing to giving everything a try except for insects, cant do the insects.

    Obviously you're not from around here. ;)

    The flavor/sauce is usually delicious, but sucking the skin and fat and gristle off of a chicken's foot is not a good meal. There's no meat, just....

    Canned tuna/chicken.

    How you freaks can handle the smell and texture of that stuff I'll never know.

    Yeah I've had chicken and I've had waffles, but never chicken and waffles.

    And, oh yeah. What's that stuff? Used to eat it all the time back in the day.

    Definitely not yummy. The texture alone is awful. Definitely not something everyone needs to try

    They're actually very good if you braise them long enough and fry them in hot enough oil so that they really puff up. Still a textural adjustment for a western palate (for some reason we just don't like foods with any chew on this side of the Pacific), but I think the problem is that they're generally pretty difficult to cook and rarely done correctly.

    I've never eaten raw coconut.

    No idea how they are made. Was gross looking. Took a try at one of the dim sum in SW HOU. Wo, dang tasty.

    But if you do know how some food are made, you might never try them again. Cheese and fish sauce comes to mind.

    Never tried Rabbit or Alligator.
