knapplc Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) Just ran across this list. 100 foods to eat before you die. Not sure where it came from, but it's an interesting list. I'm posting the list twice. First one is my list, with the foods I've had crossed off. Second one is for you to copypasta and cross off the foods you've tried. EDIT - Foods I've tried since my OP. 1. Abalone 2. Absinthe 3. Alligator 4. Baba Ghanoush 5. Bagel & Lox 6. Baklava 7. BBQ Ribs 8. Bellini 9. Birds Nest Soup 10. Biscuits & Gravy 11. Black Pudding 12. Black Truffle 13. Borscht 14. Calamari 15. Carp 16. Caviar 17. Cheese Fondue 18. Chicken & Waffles 19. Chicken Tikka Masala 20. Chile Relleno 21. Chitlins 22. Churros 23. Clam Chowder 24. Cognac 25. Crab Cakes 26. Crickets 27.

Gazpacho 44. Goat - I want to say I've eaten goat's meat, but I can't be sure. Don't cross it off if you're not sure. 45. Goat's Milk 46. Goulash 47. Gumbo 48. Haggis 49. Head Cheese 50. Heirloom Tomatoes 51. Honeycomb 52. Hostess Fruit Pie 53. Huevos Rancheros 54. Jerk Chicken - I have a GREAT Jerk recipe if anyone wants it. 55. Kangaroo 56. Key Lime Pie - once.

Oxtail Soup - If you like the flavor of beef, buy some ox tails and braise them, then put them in a soup, stew, whatever. Fantastic. 66. Paella 67. Paneer 68. Pastrami on Rye 69. Pavlova - Never heard of it. 70. Phaal - Not a clue. 71. Philly Cheese Steak 72. Pho 73. Pineapple & Cottage Cheese 74. Pistachio Ice Cream 75. Po' Boy 76. Pocky - ate this a couple of months ago.

Sweetbreads - If you don't know what this is, google it. It's not banana bread/things like that. 96. Tom Yum 97. Umeboshi 98. Venison 99. Wasabi Peas 100. Zucchini Flowers Quick count shows I've eaten just over 60% of these things. Not bad, I guess. 1. Abalone 2. Absinthe 3. Alligator 4. Baba Ghanoush 5. Bagel & Lox 6. Baklava 7. BBQ Ribs 8. Bellini 9. Birds Nest Soup 10. Biscuits & Gravy 11. Black Pudding 12. Black Truffle 13. Borscht 14. Calamari 15. Carp 16. Caviar 17. Cheese Fondue 18. Chicken & Waffles 19. Chicken Tikka Masala 20.

Mimosas are a girl drink, but easy to make and OK. I'd rather just drink OJ. Just about up to 70% of this list. Not bad for a guy living in Nebraska.

I don't know what a lot of those are, and I didn't feel like conducting google searches. I have rabbit stew at least a few times every year, huge fan. Coincidentally I had a rootbeer float about an hour ago. Oh, and carp sandwiches kick the sh#t out of tuna fish sandwiches. FYI Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Where did you get the list? I originally saw it as an app on Facebook, but I don't do FB apps, so I googled it and found it HERE. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Where did you get the list? I originally saw it as an app on Facebook, but I don't do FB apps, so I googled it and found it HERE. I found it too, but thanks anyway. I looked up Durian. It sounds... gross. I'm going to have to do some research on some of these things Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 I've watched enough Anthony Bourdain and Zimmer to know never to go near durian. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 73. Pineapple & Cottage CheeseWhat?? Isn't that your HB nickname, Pineapple? 88. Soft Shell CrabOh come on now. It's just silly that you haven't tried blue crab. What, you've never been to northern Virginia or Maryland before? Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 I almost checked off that Pineapple & Cottage Cheese one, but I've never specifically had that combo. Peaches and cottage cheese - yes, I eat that all the time. Quote Link to comment

Foppa Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Wow...as many places as I've been, there is a lot of this I haven't tried. I'm a little surprised that some haven't tried funnel cakes though Quote Link to comment
HUSKER 37 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Interesting list.. I'm not even sure what half of them are..until recently , could NOT even touch any kind of fruit pie with my tongue/lips without the gag reflex taking over..but will now generally try anything. I was also thinking of starting a thread about trying to understand "Foodies" after I got home today..I was hit up by a couple of co-workers wanting me to bring in some Einstein Bros. bagels next payday (even after they both know I'm trying to stay away from carbs)..Then I find out it's about the same price as a much needed new radio for the lab.. I like bagels and all..but can't see spending $18 on something my body will just turn into some nasty brown poop..I suggested getting some at Costco...I'd barely be able to tell the difference between the bagels and the box they came in anyway, but they insist there's a difference...My son is the same way..VERY picky about what he eats...Complains about texture and/or spices..claims to be able to tell the difference in brands of chocolate milk just by taste...If I could just find an adequate appetite supressant and better aspirin for the headaches, I'd probably quit eating alltogether. Pretty sure I've et the bolded ones..and chased a few others..(rattlesnake) I even tasted a muskrat that I'd pulled out of my Siberian Husky's throat at the Sand Pits..(After my first real girlfriend walked in on me skinning the critter on my parent's living room carpet..on some newspapers,,,And after trying to boil it for my dog,,, One time while I was between jobs, I got hungry enough to try to eat the sage bush that was growing in front of my 1st house...Are George's Gyros made of Goat? 1.

PaulCrewe Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 This list has absolutely no validity due to the lack of Rocky Mountain Oyesters. 2 Quote Link to comment
