Foods You Just Will Never Try
I'm real thankful that my parents made us clean our plates and try lots of different kinds of foods from all over the world. And picky eaters drive me nuts for the spoiled little momma' boys that they are. I've tried cow brains, tounge, liver, sushi, horse, pretty much any wild game.
But all that being said there are just some things that I'll never try: Menudo Mountain oysters Somebody had to be really hungry to ever define those as a food choice.

I'm sure the guys in Menudo appreciate that you wont eat them.
Gumby, have you tried sheep or goats head? Or, their eyes? How about hearts and lungs of a cow or its stomach? how about racoon? Last edited by fvfanmc; 12-22-2014 at 11:59 AM. |

I can't believe there is nobody yet that would eat mountain oysters. Especially the boys from Texas! I've eaten enough turkey fries, calf fries and mountain oysters over the course of my life to fill up a pickup bed.
When prepped and cooked right they're pretty good eating. Especially when accompanied with some good cold beer.

There are tons of things I'd never eat, but Rocky Mountain Oysters tops the list.

I don't know why we would call anyone a picky eater or a momma's boy. You know what you want to eat, and you eat it, and unless you want to eat it, why bother? There are plenty of dumbasses out there that will eat my share of the snails, fried mealworms, chicken balls, sheep lungs, piggy snouts, and whatever else I leave on the counter when I pick up my ribs. I'm not going to deny them the pleasure of swallowing the worm from the bottle of mezcal.
Nor will I tell alfa that he can't eat his burger's with jalapenos or whatever. He can eat his burgers with camel snot and badger piss for all I care. I have one thought about bizarre foods. God gave us eyes, a nose, and taste buds so we could tell what we shouldn't eat. he also gave us animals and plants so that we could have food. Then he gave us guns so we didn't have to eat bugs and leaves all the time. Anyone who eats sheep eyeballs, maggot cheese, or spoiled eggs is defying god's will. So are vegans. If he hadn't wanted us to eat steak he wouldn't have made cows so damned big. One more thing, the most important thing of all. Regarding lamb. Mint jelly? If you have to put jellied mouthwash on your food, maybe you shouldn't eat that shit. |
