Probs not what the foodie corner was about but what the heck...

I got this idea from a Hungrygirl.com facebook post recenty

Whats the grossest thing you've eaten (maybe accidentally)


i was reading hungrygirl replies and its very gross indeed what people may eat

your list may include insects and if they do..

i did hear that the average human accidentally ingests a lot of insects in their lifetime

I do know in some countries, like the Phillipines, more recently they love insects and there is a thriving industry in catching and cooking up the critters

may i leave you this pic from this link http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2013 ... s-good-you

Good thread idea.
The worst, most grossest, yuckiest thing I've ever had was Monkey Brain soup! And yes it was just bits of brain floating around a bowl of warm water.
I was young and brave, but couldn't finish it. I still have nightmares :(

I have eaten a deep fried slug. I thought it was a burnt chip (french fry) in the bag of chips, but when it squished...........

I was eating a salad that suddenly tasted very bitter, It got so strong I had to see what I was chewing and it was a Beetle. Nice defensive feature, Beetles are off my list of comfort foods and I now look a little closer at a salad before diving in.

I was eating a lettuce with lettuce from my garden then tasted something weird. The lettuce was near a citrus tree that had a bit of a Stink bug plague.. well one must have landed on the lettuce and missed my washing of the lettuce.. yuk.. spat it out in time. phew

I must have led a charmed life because I can't remember eating anything that bad ALTHOUGH I was dreaming last night and I chomped into a dead mouse - that was gross and woke me up very quickly! Probably best not to have an interpretation of that...............
