Are you scared of certain foods?

1.5 billion Chinese folks and this makes the news? Slow day in the Orient...

Always wary of lunchmeats and the 25 added ingredients, much better to cook a few chickens or a prime rib for the week
Anything you can eat at a baseball game is usually questionable

Cheese gives me the fear - all of it. From the hard waxy stuff that smells of teenagers feet, through the ones that smell like day-old vomit all the way to the disgusting oozing amorphous blobs that smell of a really stinky shit.

Given that it is not a natural food (I.e. it comes out of a cows udder - I don't think prehistoric man was trying to suckle wild cows!) - I have no idea why anyone would put themselves through the ordeal of acquiring the taste!

But it seems its just me. Everyone else is weird!

But stinky cheese is awesome! Although I think I'd draw the line at Casu Marzu.

A good substitute for a binky!

But if you're me ... it is not awesome.

I agree all far-eastern food is amazing ... especially as they don't use cow's milk products in anything as they realise that it's stinky indigestible crap!

All opinions are entirely my own

The day they come up with a milk product flavoured snus ... that's the day I give it all up!

Years ago we were on a hiking/camping trip. We were students so we mainly bought very cheap Bulgarian sardines for the lack of money (and lots of cigarettes and booze) One day this girl who is now my wife opened one can and the top layer of sardines consisted of nothing but dozens of tiny heads and seemingly a myriad eyes. That type of food was immediately nicknamed "sad look" and she still gives me angry look when I say the words "Sad Look" while she is opening sardines or even tuna can - it sends shivers down her spine even after some 25+years

Zoidberg: I'd like a jumbo squidlog please.
Man: We don't sell those.
Zoidberg: All right, all right, let me have one of your young on a roll.
Man: We're out of rolls.
Zoidberg: Fine! Just give me something crawling with parasites.
(The guy hands Zoidberg a hot-dog and he scarfs it down noisily)
Fry: Mmm! At least hot-dogs haven't changed.

Nah, that was before my time. I've never been east of the Atlantic coast, nor west of the Appalachians. I'm not very well traveled :^D

For GoVegan, I'd eat tinned fish if they didn't come from China. Maybe Portuguese sardines? I wonder if they sell them there :^/

I ate vegatarian in china. The food was amazing to say the least

I'm mostly scared of vegan food as I'm a meat eater, But my views are beginning to change a bit as we have just recently met a couple that just converted to vegans at a party and I was like... I ain't eating that shit! But to my surprise the dish or 2 I tried was very good... Still very scared of that shit though.... I like my meat and cheese.

There really isn't anything exotic about it but it was great you tried it for a night.

I'm vegan, so most anything I don't prepare myself concerns me.

Onions scare the shit outta me. My grandma use to eat them like apples. I won't touch anything that I know has onions...on purpose. Sometimes they are hidden very well.

Cauliflower....and baby corn. The former reminds me too much of grey matter, the latter fetuses

Both these post's made me chuckle, You guys are joking right....

Nothing scares me except brussel sprouts, purely because I can't eat them without gagging. This is actually a recongnised medical condition so imagine my pleasure at informing my parents I was never being difficult as a child
