Playing along with The Omnivore's Hundred

I saw this on Chocolate and Zucchini today, and Clotilde got it from Very Good Taste. The Omnivore's Hundred is Andrew Wheeler's list of foods he thinks every omnivore should try at least once. He made up a little game to go with it: copy and paste the list, bold the items you've tried and cross out the items you would never eat.

My guess was that I'd be right around half and I was right, I think I counted 56 out of 100. There's a number of things I can't remember if I've maybe had, and quite a few things I'm not interested in or would rather not eat but I wouldn't refuse to try. Really the only things I don't think I could handle would be insanely hot pepper, whole insects and roadkill. I'm not sure what I'm more disturbed by with its appearance on the list; roadkill or the Big Mac Meal. And I'd cross off the Big Mac if I really thought I could deny ever having tried it, but that was a long time ago.
