I just got back from a Pakistani place... I really don't have any clue what I just ordered. I'm eating it at my desk and, honestly, it's really good!? Spicy but good.
 
i would definitely try pakistani food if they had a place like that in austin

i don't kniow what it would consist of, but i'd try it. i'll try just about anything
 
Come to Houston and you'll have your pick of pretty much anything you want. There's an Ethiopian place in Houston called Blue Nile that is supposed to be delicious but I can't get my wife to bite. I may have to grab it to go sometime.
 
I'll try anything if it smells good ... I rarely get the chance because my wife likes less than 10 restaurants and I can't get her to go anywhere new
 
I'll eat almost anything. The only thing I can remember not trying is the chicken feet at a dim sum joint. Wasn't sure how to eat them (do you just eat them and the bones or what?)
 
I will eat anything but olives. I can't stand the taste of them. I have tried to force myself to like them because they are the only food i don't like, and I end up heaving.

I know I'm weird, I know millions of people love them.
 
I will eat anything...goes with the territory of being Chinese...born in India and my parents lived in Austria for 8 years also.

I grew up eating very well.

Sauerkraut with my curry? Yes please.

BTW chicken feet at dim sum...you don't really eat the meat (obviously not much) it's the gelatinous tendon and flavor of the stewing liquid that you taste / enjoy.
 
I used to think that I would "eat almost anything", but I realized that that was in the USA and at restaurants catering to the general population.

I won't eat plenty of things in Argentina (there are plenty of parts of a cow that we just don't need to eat anymore) and don't get me started on East Asia.

I will eat anything but organs & glands that are served as the focal point of the dish. I know I've already eaten it 'incidentally' plenty of times in sausage, etc.

Otherwise... snakes, snails, dogs, bugs, horses, bring it on.
 
I'll try anything except penis. I've heard testicles are good, but haven't tried that.


I've had blood cake, intestines, gizzards, and those embryo duck eggs. Asians eat almost anything.
 
i dont like blood sausage and some organs, not a big liver fan..ive had brains in brazil, i didnt know it at the time but it wasnt so bad.
 
I will eat anything or at least try most anything is probably more accurate- I must admit I have not gone to the restaurant "Drakula" in Anderson Square...

I'll try anything at least once. After spending the first 18yrs of my life eating purely beef and potatoes my 1/2 Filipino wife has forced me to expand my horizons. Now sushi is my absolute favorite gourmet meal.

had chicken sashimi in Tokyo. It was ok, but I would not eat it again....I kept expecting to wake-up all night with a severe case of Salmonella (sp?)
 
I don't consider Drakula to be very adventurous, more like typical Romanian home cooking. "Not as good as Grandma's," per a Romanian friend, but pretty good.

I've eaten food from street vendors in KL and other parts of Malaysia, which I considered to be a lot more adventurous.
