The Very Good Taste Omnivore’s Hundred
Mmmkay…I’ve seen this floating amongst the blogosphere and I decided to participate. It really is an introspection as well as a meme. I may not want to try the items in the list that I have not already eaten, but then again, I may. Eating is what I love to do. And when something is prepared well and is delicious, well I may not care what it is, I’m indulging. Whatever the case, maybe you all should try this meme. More information can be had here.
Here’s what to do:
1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.

Donald, you lost me with the last item. Don't tell me that people eat the thing I fear the most! You are bolder than me, as I am a touch squeemish as well. I will be keeping a watch on how you make it through the list. Go Donald!!! 
I'm guessing you aren't a sushi eater from some of the things you haven't eaten. & another person who hasn't had pocky?! I need to send you all a box of it. 
You are missing out by not indulging in #27. It's good stuff. I am enjoying your blog and am envious of all your hits. How do you do it? Other than great content of course!!! Boy if I am cooking meats I will come here first for the recipe. 
hey donald i got a server error saying i was spam! ack... and now it's saying my url is invalid!i like this list... it reminds me of things i still need to try but i'm also surprised at how much i have had.
I have been meaning to do the omnivore's 100, I really should, but I'm sure there'll only be a few things on it I've tried. It's been good reading how adventurous you've been!PS I got a message the first time round posting this saying my blog url was invalid too.
Kim: Yeah people do eat that which you may fear most, but I bet you would like it with a nice remoulade.Kat: You'd be right. Surprising huh. One of the guys at work was just running through list of sushi items.
Robinsue: Believe me, I plan on getting that into my belly really soon! Thanks for the comments!
Krysta: I have figured out what is going on; I updated my spammer blacklist and it has ".blogspot" in it as a spam domain. Apparently .blogspot is a notorious origin domain for spammers. I removed it so you won't get that error any longer.
Now get crackin' on that list!
Ruth: I'll be on the lookout for your list. I've read so many others and they can be quite interesting.
You haven't had steak tartare or foie gras?? Dude, you are missing out! 
So cool that you didn't cross anything out.
Thanks For The Article
