M$Excuse me.
The grossest looking and feeling thing I've ever eaten was a pickled baby octopus. It didn't taste that terrible, I think, but I'm not really sure because I was so grossed out by the feeling of having a rubbery thing with little tentacles pop in my mouth like an eyeball or something. And yes, I ate it on a dare.
And then there's chitterlings, which is pig intestines, and they smell like pig poo. I refuse to even try to eat those, no matter how good anybody tells me they are.

M$I don't know how people can eat it! Even Andrew Zimmern couldn't eat it! He described the taste as, "completely rotten, mushy onions." Anthony Bourdain said, "Its taste can only be described as...indescribable, something you will either love or despise. ...Your breath will smell as if you'd been French-kissing your dead grandmother."

M$yup thats disgusting.. im from philippines that fruit is from the province of davao here in philippines... the smell is so yuck as in it's like your smelling a shit and eating aswell.. but when you taste it the taste was like a jackfruit or yummier than that but the smell duh you want to get rid of it.. other people what they're doing is they just cover there nose with there hand so they could'nt smell it...
If you freeze it first, the smell goes away for the most part and it develops a vanilla pudding flavor. after freezing it i have even cooked it into a sauce that smelled heavenly and tasted out of this world. but when raw and not frozen or cooked after freezing, its...indescribably disgusting. You can buy them in some parts of California relatively cheap.
We also occasionally eat fish head soup, which I though was a joke until I got here - watch out for the bones!

M$That?s right you?re eating ant eggs. Grossed out? Well, don?t be ? we eat chicken eggs all the time, and people eat fish eggs as caviar, or salmon roe on their sushi, so why not fry up some ant eggs, add a bit of cheese and a daub of guac for a nice ant egg taco. Ole!
Here?s a you tube video that starts with a strangely fitting photo of George W Bush eating a cat (wtf?), and then shows a greasy chef preparing Escamoles and referring to them as ?a delicacy worthy of gods, like the worms of maguey? OMG, they eat worms too. And I used to love Mexican food.

M$It was part of school lunch when I lived in the South. Being from the North, I did not develop a taste for okra as a kid.
This may seem somewhat tame compared to other people's answers, but when I was a kid, all I could think about was how the seeds reminded me of sacs of spider eggs.
*shudder*

M$Heh. I'm trying to get over this food phobia, but it's been hard. I even bought some fresh okra to cook but couldn't bring myself to do so. If you have any recipes...hold that thought, I'll post a question.
I did have *dried* okra the other day, which was odd but awesome.
Heh. I'm trying to get over this food phobia, but it's been hard. I even bought some fresh okra to cook but ran out of time
ROTFLMAO! I'm from the south, and I love fried okra, but I can understand that, because I hate most pasta, and food cooked with NO seasoning, so I could never live up north.
uuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmm!:)

M$So I was at a party at my friends house and eveyone brought food. I happened to walk into the kitchen while my buddies were in there eating, and all I heard was, "oh man... Oh that's so good...Delicious!!"
"What's up guys? Whatcha eating then?" says I.
Kenny turns and goes, "Here, eat this man!" and, not realizing what they were eating, he pops a ball of sticky rice thickly coated in banana pudding into my mouth.
The horror of the concoction in my mouth was immediate. While throwing up in the sink, my "buddies" were dying from laughing so hard.
With friends like this...

Man, I cannot believe you won this one. My vote goes to sea urchin. Love ya, Ditesco, but having eaten balut, I say you won only on the emotional/psychological "ewwww" factor. Tripe would've come in a close second, for me. And I've eaten some weird things in my life... I want to know what that thing in the can is, though - whatever that is, it has to win. Is that for real? @#$%, what is that, canned vampire rat?
I am from the Philippines and I don't find the food mentioned here disgusting. Its just an acquired taste. But then again I was born and raised here. A lot of the stuff is normal to me. I also never thought of becoming a Chef as a career.
Growing up as a kid I find the Balut yolk very good and the broth tasty when you first cracked the egg. I just leave out the disgusting almost developed duck part and give to my Mom. BTW there is a Yolk only version of the Balut called "Penoy." But nowadays I eat the whole egg. Except for that inedible hard white part that's bone solid.
For the Western World a lot of the food that is alien to your culture can be considered disgusting. But that doesn't mean it doesn't taste good. Its all a matter of taste. There are tons of tasty but disgusting food you could find here. If you happen live in a any poor country. You'll learn to use every part of the animal.
A glorious example would be the Pig and the Chicken. In any street food vendor with a grill. You can buy "Isaw" pig intestines. "Balat" - pig's skin. "Betamax" - cubed pig's blood. "Adidas" - chicken feet. I can't seem to recall what funny name they call the "Chicken's Neck"
If your into the greasy stuff. For cheap you can have a "One Day Old Chicken" thats literally a young baby fried chicken. Deep fried hard boiled eggs in a batter "Kwek-Kwek" for the small Quail and "Tuknene" for Chicken.
Those are just few examples. For the perfect Beer match you can find in any bar. Anthony Bourdain loved "Sisig" - pig face skin that is grilled, chopped, fried and served in a sizzling plate. Food that is invented when there was a US Military base in Clark, Pampanga Buthers simply threw out as scraps.
Are those ... feathers?!
Depends on yor imagination I think. I see eyes as well, do you?
