I have never eaten a "country fried" anything.

[LaraMN]

I've never had seafood, chicken wings, grits, an avocado, banana cream pie, salmon, a Moon Pie, or Wonder Bread.

What common foods have you managed to avoid ever having tried?

[driver8]

1. A corn dog!

I've never eaten one, and I have no desire to eat one.

They look absolutely disgusting.

LaraMN -- You've never had ANY seafood? None? Regarding the avocado - you are missing out!
Have you had guacamole?

[LaraMN]

4. No corn dogs!

Not even a mini corn dog?!

I have NEVER had seafood. My mom never served it when I was a kid, and now I've come to feel that it all looks like giant bugs!

I haven't had guacamole, no. My husband eats EVERYTHING. I'd never even tried salsa until I met him!

[driver8]

26. Good Lord! Where do you live, Minnesota or something??

You must try guacamole and avocado...you must!

[YellowRubberDuckie]

35. OMG! You sound like my father in law.

He had never eaten CHEESE until he married my mother in law.
How have you never eaten any of those things. I do have to say that country fried steak is something EVERYONE needs to have sometime in their life.

2. Wow. You've missed a lot.

Country fried steak ... banana cream pie ... MMMMMM! It might be easier to ask what you HAVE eaten ...

:hi:

[LaraMN]

5. I have the most dull pallet of anyone I know.

Seriously.
I'm a booooring eater!

[ceile]

3. I'm w/ you on the Wonder Bread.

But I love food, so I'll try anything once. But regionally speaking, I've never had menudo, tongue, chitlins or anything made w/ feet (pigs feet, chiken feet).

[LaraMN]

6. Yeah. I never saw the point of eating Wonder Bread.

I grew up on whole wheat bread and an occasional (amazing!) loaf of homemade white bread.

[fizzgig]

7. avocado is the fruit of the gods, imo

and salmon is soooooooooo tasty and so very good for you.

i've never had banana or coconut cream pie, but that's because i don't like bananas or coconut.

[LaraMN]

9. My MIL tried to force an avocado into my mouth, once.

That is not an effective way to introduce a person to a new food.

x(

[fizzgig]

18. i would have knocked her out

i'm not normally a violent person, but that is just not acceptable.

[Sequoia]

8. What !!! No avocados, salmon or a Moon Pie.

You poor soul. How about Kentucky Fried Chicken?

[LaraMN]

10. I think I had KFC as an elementary-schooler, once.

:shrug:

[Sequoia]

24. How about tempura?

What do you eat...paper? (wink)

[Phillycat]

11. Put that on your resume.

:rofl:

[LaraMN]

13. Well, I could hardly hurt, at this point.

:P

[MrCoffee]

12. That explains quite a bit, actually.

[LaraMN]

14. No it doesn't. If anything, it explains quite a small amount.

Like this much: ------>..<-----

[MrCoffee]

19. You'd understand if you chowed down on a CFC.

Just sayin.

[geardaddy]

15. I've never eaten a Moon Pie either.

But I've eaten everything else in that list.

[krispos42]

16. chicken-fried steak is awesome!

Last time I was in Connecticut, my mom and my brother and I went out to the "Texas Roadhouse Bar and Grill" or whatever the place was named in West Haven. He'd never had a chicken-fried steak, either, and was all "oh, I don't know" about it.

I convinced him to try it out, so he got a huge slab of chicken-fried steak and loved every bite of it!


Mmmm... chicken fried steak... :drool:

[LaraMN]

17. Wow. That was like a love story.

:rofl:

[MajorChode]

22. While in Germany...

I had Wiener Schnitzel and remember thinking it wasn't that much different than a chicken fried steak. Then I was watching Alton Brown one day and he said the dish originated with German immigrants and when they couldn't get veal, they simply tenderized a piece of steak as a substitute.

[jobycom]

20. If I haven't tried something, I plan too (except meat). Goes for food or anything else

barring a few things here and there that are dangerous, unethical, or harmful to animals.

[Shell Beau]

21. I can't think of anything. I always try something once.

I can't stand cooked fish, much less raw, but I made myself try sushi just so when I said I didn't like it, I actually knew I didn't like it. I am sure there are some common things I haven't tried, but I do make a point to try everything.

[MajorChode]

23. Menudo, pickled pigs feet, and chitlins come to mind

[nomorenomore08]

28. Tripe actually tastes pretty good, though it does have a strange texture.

Almost like eating strands of balloon.

[MajorChode]

30. I've had tripe before

In oriental dishes.

[nomorenomore08]

31. Like pho? The tripe isn't bad at all mixed with 3 or 4 other kinds of beef.

nt

[MajorChode]

32. Exactly. Tripe in pho is not bad at all

[Lucian]

25. Lucky you.

I've had about every common food out there. :(

[azmouse]

27. Anything made by Hostess.

Krispy Kreme donuts
Doritos

[Bake]

29. Sardines. I've never eaten sardines.

And never will.

Bake

[tigereye]

33. well, I've tried many things - but I avoid okra, eggplant, liver, lamb and veal

I don't think I've had banana cream pie, but I've had everything else, even chicken-fried steak in a diner, somewhere. I don't like chicken wings, either.




I LOVE. LOVE salmon, shrimp, and most seafoods, except squid.

[SoxFan]

34. You filthy, godless, communist!

Let me guess. You haven't had a Goo Goo Cluster either, have you?
